Message
Life is full of challenges, troubles and trials because: “Man that is born of a woman is of few days, and full of trouble.” (Job 14:1) Some of these problems range from failure in an examination, sickness, depression, discouragement, disappointment, sin and oppression of Satan. It maybe you or your loved ones that is affected by these problems. You as a little child cannot face these challenges of life by your natural strength. You need divine support and help. This is the reason our Bible passage calls on every child to seek help from the great and mighty God Who can handle all problems of life.
Whatsoever is the problem, the Lord Jesus has ability to solve it.
Examples of people who sought for help in the Bible include Jacob, Asa, Jehoshaphat, David, Paul, etc. All these people asked God for divine help and He did not deny them. He has promised to help you too. Therefore, cast your burden upon the Lord, as you pray and trust Him to deliver you from all troubles. Your testimony will be “So that we (I) may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.” (Hebrews 13:6).
