When
you feel caught and destined to die in a trap that Satan has laid out
before you, call to remembrance some people from the Bible. Joseph
was rejected by his own brothers, thrown in a well, and sold as a
slave. Paul was shipwrecked and so much more. Daniel was thrown in a
Den of Lions. Job lost everything including his health and his
family. But, each of these men had songs of Deliverance to sing in
the end. You can also if you choose!
A
trap or a pit of despair can seem like an eternity. When you feel
forsaken, lonely, depressed, financially stripped, sick, and even at
death's door as these men were, what do you do? What did they do?
They called out to their God and trusted in Him to deliver them.
You
must not look at your circumstances but look straight up from your
pit and cry out to the Lord your God. I pray you will see the Light
and the Angel of the Lord will be your Deliverer!
Most
of us would do anything to avoid life's test and trials, especially
the temptations set before us because of our own desires. But they
still happen and we have the choice to remain caught or be set free
by the delivering power of God. God will always bring good out of the
hard times when we endure and trust in Him.
Acknowledge
your fleshly desires and the sin that has beset you and repent. Give
all your pain to God and confess your hurt, the resentment, and the
anger. Allow God to help you to forgive those involved in your hurt
and receive God's forgiveness and His love for you.
Remember, He cares! He loves you and He will stay close during your healing process as long as it takes. He is never far, always near. Soon, you'll be ready for the great finale. So sing your Song of Deliverance and Freedom!
Psalm
40:3, “And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our
God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the LORD.”
