Lift Us Up
Our God is on our side. That can seem like a simple thing to say. For many of us, however, we can feel overwhelmed when we face challenges. If we can learn to trust in God to be on our side, we can endure until deliverance comes our way. Our God Yahuah (Lord) never fails. It is Paul who explains this to us.
Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
2 For by it the elders obtained a good report.
3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.
4 By faith Abel offered unto God a more excellent sacrifice than Cain, by which he obtained witness that he was righteous, God testifying of his gifts: and by it he being dead yet speaketh.
5 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.
6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
We can experience God’s plan for our lives if we will rest in His presence and trust that He is on our side.
Prayer
Father, we exalt You. You are our King. Send us Your kingdom. We praise the name Yahuah (Lord). Send us today Your overwhelming provision. Forgive us for when we have gotten away from Your will and Your ways. Heal us and deliver us. Cast down our enemies and their works. Preserve those things that You have given to us. We love You. In Yeshua’s (Jesus’) name. Amen.
