God Is Always There

“When the poor and needy seek water, and there is none, and their tongue is parched with thirst, I the Lord will answer them; I the God of Israel will not forsake them.” Isaiah‬ ‭41‬:‭17‬ ‭ESV‬‬

“When the poor and needy seek water, and there is none, and their tongue is parched with thirst, I the Lord will answer them; I the God of Israel will not forsake them.” ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭41‬:‭17‬ ‭ESV‬‬ There are times when we all have felt like whatever we were going through we were going through by ourselves. When we try to explain our situation to people, they are not able to understand because of the weight of what we are facing it is difficult to articulate. We can seek for solutions in all types of ways, but we still find ourselves in the same situation with seemingly no way out. It is in these times we need to continue to look to The Lord to see us through. The Scripture reminds us that, when the poor and needy seek water, and there is none, and their tongue is parched with thirst, I the Lord will answer them; I the God of Israel will not forsake them. I encourage you today to remember that no matter what you are going through, to always look to The Lord in prayer, knowing He is the one who will always be there for you. When it feels like all your strength is gone and you cannot take another step, remember The Lord is there with you to help you get to the place He has prepared for you. The Lord has promised you that even when it looks like all hope is gone, He will be there for you and will hear you, all you have to do is open your mouth and talk to Him. Not only will The Lord hear you, He has also promised not to forsake you. Friends and family may forsake you when you need them the most, but The Lord will always be there for you. In the most difficult times of your life look to The Lord, and He will be there for you. When you feel like you cannot articulate the things you are going through with anyone else you can talk to The Lord, because He understands what you are going through. Even when it feels like you are all alone, remember The Lord is there with you and for you. I know The Lord will never leave me nor forsake me and is always there for me, this is why I know without a doubt, "It's My Year To Get My Thing From My God!"

Prayer:

Lord thank you for always being there for me. Thank you for always making ways for me. Thank you for always providing for me. Thank you for always being good to me. Lord, thank you for all you do for me, and I will forever give your name the praise. In Jesus Name Amen.
