Message
Ryan’s eye glasses dropped in the middle of the road as he hurried through the pedestrian crossing. He quickly turned and asked for help. Fortunately, the man behind him waited and picked up the glasses. “Thank you sir, thank you sir, it is just two days ago that dad gave me this one” Ryan said. Our Bible passage says “In that day.” There is in the life of everyone, a day or time you are in need and ask for help from someone. It is not possible to find someone on earth who has never asked for help. Jesus knows this, and in our Bible passage encourages us to ask God the Father, whatever we need. God is a kind Giver.
There are many needs in the life of every child. First, the need for salvation of his soul, then the strength to overcome every temptation, the provision for every day and deliverance from all harm, to mention just a few. Though your needs are many, ask the Lord in prayer in the Name of His Son, Jesus, believing. He will answer all your prayers.
