Encouragement
I Encourage You!
Good morning beloved, I trust we had a great weekend? Glory to God.
Let's look at Psalm 102 We will look at some of the verses, at your own time, you could read the whole chapter.
1. LORD, hear my prayer; let my cry for help come before you.2. Do not hide your face from me in my day of trouble. Listen closely to me; answer me quickly when I call.3. For my days vanish like smoke, and my bones burn like a furnace.8. My enemies taunt me all day long; they ridicule and curse me.9. I eat ashes like bread and mingle my drinks with tears10. because of your indignation and wrath; for you have picked me up and thrown me aside.13. You will arise and have compassion on Zion, for it is time to show favor to her, the appointed time has come.
What a powerful prayer from the psalmist. He captured the feeling we get when things don't go our way.
He understands that there are times we feel that God has hidden his face from us. When we pass through times when we might just need a call, a wind, or maybe a small voice but can't hear or feel anything.
He knew there would be days when we will feel like we are seeing hundreds of faces laughing at us in our state of failure and shame.
Situations where feeding and meeting the necessities of life were just not possible, times when ash taste good, times when we can go on for days in being used and abused for upkeep.
Thank God those days aren't the best days of our lives, our situation doesn't keep us but God does. He may have cast us out a while for our iniquity to he has a perfect plan, a plan to favor us, his "Zion" and this is our time!
This new week and a new day, when we call on God concerning issues, problems, and every unpalatable situation, He will answer us quickly in Jesus' Name!
No matter how our enemies taunt us all day long and ridicule and curse us, one thing is for sure as long as we, even in that state believe and hold on to our God knowing that He is enthroned forever, then God will arise and have compassion on us and show us Favor because our appointed time has come.
Thank you, Jesus! Let us go out today with this assurance that today is our set day of favor and no one and nothing can stop it in Jesus' Name! Amen!
Good morning one more time and have a Cause to laugh today in Jesus' Name! Amen! God bless you.
