In Isaiah 61:1-3, the Lord encourages the poor, the brokenhearted, the captives, prisoners, and the bereaved. He promises good news, freedom, release from darkness and comfort. May relief be their portion and joy their benefit.

Humility, faith, and the mercy of God were important ingredients in the healing of the gallant soldier. Naaman took a step of faith in going to Samaria to seek a solution to his problem. God ensured that Elisha got to hear about the king’s frustration. Humility made the soldier dip himself in a river that didn’t compare to those back in Damascus. His servants also played a role in convincing him to obey. May our problem be located by God’s favour. 2 Kings 5:6-17.

Helplessness was not on Naaman’s mind, when he saw an opportunity to get help. He had not given up despite being sick for a long time. May we see the move of God and respond appropriately. May we avoid distractions and see or hear God clearly. May we be convicted to do what He desires. 2 Kings 5:2-5.

In 2 Kings 5:1, there is a brave soldier who was a captain in the army. He was dependable and a great soldier and leader, but he had leprosy. This disease did not stop him from doing what he needed to do. He excelled in his career despite his illness. What’s your challenge? Does it define you or stop you from being who you are supposed to be? Are you able to excel despite this challenge?

I may be mortal and fallible, but I serve the Lord God almighty. He is my ever present help, a resource that is always available to me. I choose to depend on Him, not on my own strength. I purpose to fear and honour Him. May I find favour in His sight. Psalm 103:15-18.

I purpose to invoke faith continuously as I journey through life. I have decided to make the Lord’s presence my dwelling place. I am tired of looking over my shoulder in fear. I will rest in the shadow of His wings and depend on Him. I will trust in His help. Psalm 91:1-16.

Whether we have all that we need or we are in distress, our perspective of God should not change. He remains God. Being content, whatever the circumstances would help us a great deal. Having the confidence that He can help us irrespective of what we are faced with would not only encourage others. It would also require a lot of faith and build our trust in Him. Philippians 4:10-13

Jehovah is merciful and knows what we are all going through. Nothing catches Him by surprise. He promises over and over again that He will take care of us. Psalm 34:15-18 is one such promise. May we experience His love when we are brokenhearted.

What credit can the Israelites take for the events of Exodus 14:17-30? What role did they play in that amazing episode? They were totally helpless and had to depend on the Lord 100%. In a state of utter helplessness, we must learn to depend on God fully, then allow Him to take all the glory. He sometimes allows us to be in such situations so that we acknowledge that without Him, we are cooked.

Sometimes, our faith can be shaken by events. We may be unable to comprehend why we go through suffering and pain. When we can’t understand or explain, the best thing is to allow the Lord to fight for us, to comfort and encourage us. May we allow Him to minister to us. He speaks through His word, circumstances, people, a song, etc. Be still and listen. Exodus 14:10-16.
