Hold Your Head Up

When you go through deep waters and great trouble, I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown! When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up--the flames will not consume you. Isaiah 43:2 The Living Bible

Good Morning Girlfriends:

There is so much going on in our world these days as we watch history repeat itself, and now it is time for it all to come to an end as we say enough is enough. There are families right now that have been going through all kinds of sicknesses and cold, even whole family units. They called to be lifted up in prayer, as one family member had to be taken to the hospital by ambulance to be kept under observation. They feel like things are a bit much right now.

Another family that I am very close to has had a family member living with them, then another family member needed a place to stay, so they added to the numbers of the household. Then the other night I was informed that another family member was laid off from their job, so now they are scrambling to find another job to take them through, because for some reason those bills do not stop coming in. Wow, doesn't it seem like sometimes thing can come at you from every side, making everyday life just a little hectic.

I wonder how Moses and the Isrealites felt when Pharaoh's army was hot on their trail to bring them back into captivity, I'm sure they must have been thinking "what are we going to do now?" When Moses was a baby, his mother had to think fast to save her baby so he would not be added to the number of babies that had been ordered to be killed. Esther had been put in a place where she was responsible for her whole family and bloodline, in order to save them she had to listen very carefully to the people God had put all around her, to follow out the instructions that were being instructed from the Lord. Daniel knew that there was only one God that would be with him in the lion's den as well as the three Hebrew boys who would not bow to the Kings demands. Joseph was led by an angel, who directed them each step to take of where they were to go in order to keep the baby safe in which Mary was carrying, knowing that one day He would be the one who would save the world.

Girlfriends, God has been on the scene since time began, He has seen many people come through troubles, fire, situations that may have looked hopeless, temptations, chaotic times. Whatever you are facing right now is not the end, God sees every dart and arrow that the enemy throws at us. In the word it tells us that no weapon formed against us shall prosper, found in Isaiah 54:17 and then it goes onto say, and every tongue that comes against you in judgment you will condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord. When Haman came against Esther and her family, in which he was plotting to destroy, Haman was hung on the very gallows that he had build for Mordecai. Pharaoh's army was swallowed up in the Red sea as God had made a way across it for Moses and the Isrealites. God saved baby Moses with being found by the Princess who raised Moses. God was in the furnace with the Hebrew boys, because they would not bow, God brought them out unharmed, as well as Daniel.

Whatever you are facing today, know that God is with you, He is by your side and He will see you through your situation as well. Numbers 23:19, Titus 1:2, Hebrews 6:18 says that God is a man that he should not lie, and Hebrews 13:8 says that God is the same God yesterday, today and forever. He wants you to know, whatever situation He has brought you through before, He will do it again and again. He is God and He is faithful to see you through to the end. Psalm 33:4, Psalm 91. God loves you and His love is never ending. He will see you through your fire, He will see you through your chaos, and through the high waters.

Let's Pray,

Father God, I look to you for You are where my help comes from. Lord You are the God who never fails, and You are the God who sees it all. I thank you Lord that as I lift up each one who is going through hard times and chaotic times right now, You are as close as the mention of your name to hear our prayers. Lord give each person the strength and endurance to continue to press on through their situations knowing that You are right by their sides walking along with them through the high waters, and You are making a way for them to get over to the other side of it. Lord I praise You for You are God almighty and You reign on high. I praise You Lord in the the mighty name of Jesus. You are worthy.

Be blessed dear ones and pass the blessings on.
