"HELP LORD I AM UNCERTAIN"

Post date: Jun 28, 2018 3:47:43 AM

Though uncertainty is ruling the world today, God had called and saved you for a purpose and He will help you through every moment in life. “When you go through deep waters, 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. For I am the Lord your God the Holy One of Israel, your Savior. I gave Egypt as a ransom for your freedom; I gave Ethiopia and Seba in your place. Others were given in exchange for you. I traded their lives for yours because you are precious to me. You are honored, and I love you. Do not be afraid, for I am with you. I will gather you and your children from east and west. I will say to the north and south, bring my sons and daughters back to Israel from the distant corners of the earth. Bring all who claim me as their God, for I have made them for my glory. It was I who created them.” Isaiah 43:5-7

In times of prolonged uncertainties, our feelings about ourselves and our future are disturbed, our faith even in things we are assured of becomes week, our physical and spiritual strength in prayer diminishes, our knowledge even in things we know well is questioned, our hope seems to die, our relationship with God and men becomes frustrated and our future becomes blunt. Uncertainty has a way of questioning what we are right now and what we will become next; it questions where we are now and where we will be next; it questions what we are doing now and what we will do next; it questions are past and cast doubts on our future. It makes us lose sight of important and necessary things; it questions our ability and our integrity; it questions the best of our decisions past, present and future and it makes us look like fools despite our knowledge and achievements in life; but in any form of uncertainty we may be in, there is still hope, there is still God’s plan and assurance, and there is every certainty in the word of God for us. When we experience prolonged uncertainty, we even forget our past testimonies and confessions, but God will not and has not forgotten us and will never forget His promises to us.

Due to circumstances beyond our control, we may be uncertain about our future but irrespective of our situation, our God is quite certain about our future and His word is certain about what He is doing and what He will do. Our God is certain about where He is leading us to, certain about of victory, our freedom, our deliverance, certain about our healing, certain about of restoration and certain about our peace and joy. He is certain about Himself; He is certain about His power to do all things; He is never confused, never uncertain, never frustrated and never disappointed. Even in this time and moment of our uncertainty, God is quite confident in what He is doing in and through you and He will not fail. “To whom will you compare me? Who is my equal? Asks the Holy One, look up into the heavens, who created all the stars? He brings them out like an army, one after another, calling each by its name. Because of his great power and incomparable strength, not a single one is missing. O Jacob, how can you say the Lord does not see your troubles? O Israel, how can you say God ignores your rights? Have you never heard? Have you never understood? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of all the earth. He never grows weak or weary. No one can measure the depths of his understanding. He gives power to the weak and strength to the powerless. Even youths will become weak and tired, and young men will fall in exhaustion. But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint.” Isaiah 40:25-31. For prayers Click here
