EMPOWERING LIVES WITH PURPOSE:
JUST PRAY!
“Go back and tell Hezekiah, the ruler of my people, ‘This is what the Lord, the God of your father David, says: I have heard your prayer and seen your tears; I will heal you. On the third day from now, you will go up to the temple of the Lord.” (2 Kings 20:5 )
Using my own life as an example, yesterday was a real struggle. Life is hard. We go through hard things. But can I also tell you that I was reminded constantly that God is so good, faithful and He will be with me, with you, with ALL of us, through it all!
I studied this verse in Kings in my quiet time, and God revealed to me that life is changing!! No matter what we are going through, it never stays the same. But through everything, God has us!! He finds a way to reveal this to us over and over—even in hard moments of life!!
God can do the IMPOSSIBLE ~ just as He extended Hezekiah’s life by 15 years in response to his prayer; remember that our God is a God of miracles and compassion. He hears our cries no matter how big or how small they are and He is willing to intervene in our lives with healing and restoration.
Don’t lose your faith in the hard moments, and be BOLD in praying no matter what you might have going on right in the now. Know that God is our ever-present help in times of trouble. May we all be reminded that God’s love for us and His mercy, they know no bounds. His promises are always worth holding on to because they are TRUE, and His Word is alive.
Trust in His timing and His plan for your life, for He is faithful to fulfill His promises. PLEASE stay strong and hopeful, and keep going!!
God is with you every step of the way.
Just pray!!!
He is a good, good Father, and He is our HOPE!
