Full Reliance on God
Psalm72:12-14'For he will deliver the needy who cry out,the afflicted who have no one to help.He will take pity on the weak and the needy and save the needy from death.He will rescue them from oppression and violence,for precious is their blood in his sight.'
When the needy cries,what else can he do?His cry is heard by God,he does need to do anything else.When you cry out to God in desperation and you open your heart to God,He will rescue you.Don't cry to anybody,not to your friends,not to your family,not to your leaders,but cry unto your almighty God,because only He can rescue you and He will rescue you.Yes,people can help you,but it's only because God enables them to.The nearest way is to cry straight to God.Let your cries fall unto His ears.Let your plea of desperation touch His heart.Let your helplessness move His hands.Cry straight to God,not to secondary causes.
Friends I want you to know today that YOU CANrely on God.You can rely upon God in both capacities-as without supplies and without helpers. Make your double need your double plea.Even for temporal mercies you may wait upon God,for He cares for you in these temporary concerns.As for spiritual necessities, which are the heaviest of all,the Lord will hear your cry and will deliver you and supply you.
Friends learn to rely on God in everything.Proverbs3:5-6'Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;in all your ways acknowledge Him,and He will make your paths straight.' Friends when the going gets tough,all the more you should have full reliance on God.Many times you won't understand your circumstances,you don't have to,because it is not your job to understand,your job is just to rely on God.And when you surrender yourself to God and say 'Lord take control',when you learn to let go and let God,when you have full reliance on God,your circumstances will fade away,simply because your maker is greater than any of your problems.Let your cry today cease to be 'God I have a big problem',but let your stand from today forth be,'Problem I have a big God'.
Zephaniah3:17 'The Lord your God is with you,he is mighty to save.He will take great delight in you,he will quiet you with his love,he will rejoice over you with singing.'
You stood before creation
Eternity in your hand
You spoke the earth into motion
My soul now to stand
You stood before my failure
And carried the cross for my shame
My sin weighed upon your shoulders
My soul, now to stand
So what could I say?
And what could I do?
But offer this heart oh God
Completely to you
So I’ll walk upon salvation
Your spirit alive in me
This life to declare your promise
My soul now to stand
So what could I say?
And what could I do?
But offer this heart oh God
Completely to you
I’ll stand
With arms high and heart abandoned
In awe of the one who gave it all
I’ll stand
My soul longs to you surrender it all
I am is yours
