“For Help, Go To God”
Thursday, February 13, 2025Key Verse
“Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need” (Hebrews 4:16).
Text —Hebrews 4:11-16
Message
Our text of today admonishes us to go to God’s throne of grace for the help we need. Humans can help us too, and in fact God often uses people to help us. Walter Scott said, “We cannot exist without mutual help. All therefore that need aid have a right to ask it from their fellow men; and no one who has the power of granting can refuse it without guilt.” However, there are cases where some youths have been promised by some kind-hearted relatives (even parents), to fund their tertiary education only to be disappointed due to their sudden death.
Some men have the means to help but lack human kindness. Others have mercy but lack the means or the might to help. Only God possesses both might and mercy enough to see you through your challenges. Would you win the fight against sin and some enslaving bad habit? Are you facing some financial problems? Are you struggling in your academic performance? Is there a threat in your family to your future dream? Pray in faith unto God and help will come.
