When in distress

"When you are in distress, and all these things come upon you in the latter days, when you turn to the LORD your God and obey His voice (for the LORD your God is a merciful God), He will not forsake you nor destroy you, nor forget the covenant of your fathers which He swore to them." Deuteronomy 4.30-31
In every promise there is a condition for compliance. Sometimes, because we are more emotional, we let the voice of the heart speak louder and despair at the sight of problems.
God is the Same. Just as He was in the past, He is in the present and will be in the future, forever. When we turn to Him and heed His voice, we reason, and He sustains us.

There is rest in trusting

"I called on the Lord in distress; the Lord answered me and set me in a broad place." Psalms 118.5

Troubles are part of everyday life for every human beings. The difference is that not everyone has the Lord Jesus as a refuge. That's when they lose.
But for those who depend on Him, they find rest from praying and beign answered.

Troubled Soul


"See, O LORD, that I am in distress; my soul is troubled; my heart is overturned within me, for I have been very rebellious." Lamentations 1:20

There’s no way around it! Whatever a man sows, he shall reap. So how do you change the current painful situation sown in the past? By sacrificing. The only way is to unconditionally surrender your life to the Holy Spirit and walk away from sin once and for all.
