Rest for My Soul I

June 27

Text: Psa.121:1-8; More Lessons: Heb.4:16, 10:21

Many Christians are still in places far from Heaven's direction. While they are looking for sticks and cutlasses to cut the serpents off their lives, God is saying to look up in the place of prayer. Bow your knees in prayer, go low before the Almighty. Jacob did and his name was changed.

It is not the title or profession that brings money and satisfaction to you but whether that is where God wants you to be. To make it in life, stay where God says to stay. If He says dig, then begin to dig the ground. What you get from God depends on your level of obedience. God has more than enough, no man can exhaust His resources. But people lack and enter into trouble just because they are yet to know the ways of God.

Many people are suffering in the midst of plenty because they are yet to embrace the unlimited God. The God of Moses who took the Israelites through the wilderness and the Red Sea to the Promised Land cannot fail. Often, many resort to carnal reasoning and judge all things from human perspective, which leads to failure. However, trusting in the promises of God to help is the source of rest. Turn over your labour to the God of help and find rest for your soul. Replace your anxiety and economic calculation with the help of God through His Word.

The most reliable thing on earth is the Word of God for it is like gold tried in the furnace of fire, tested and proven. It is a light and you can turn to it because it is the way. God cannot fail, so His Word does not fail. It is the source of help from God and those that hold on to the Word will find rest for their souls.

Prayer/Action

* Ask God to grant you rest from your struggle and turn the days of fruitlessness to harvest.

* Ask God to guide and lead you to His prepared table for your destiny and save you from helplessness.
