“WHEN THINGS SEEM to be going all wrong, stop and affirm your trust in GOD. Calmly bring these matters to GOD, and leave them in The LORD’S capable hands. Then, simply do the next thing. Stay in touch with GOD through thankful, trusting prayers, resting in HIS sovereign control. Rejoice in The LORD — exult in the God of your salvation! As you trust in GOD, HE makes your feet like the feet of a deer. GOD enables you to walk and make progress upon your high places of trouble, suffering, or responsibility.” para-phrased – “Jesus Calling” by Sarah Young
Though He slay me, yet will I trust Him. Even so, I will defend my own ways before Him. JOB 13 : 15 (NKJV)
He makes my feet like the feet of a deer; he enables me to stand on the heights. PSALM 18 : 33
Though the fig tree should not blossom, nor fruit be on the vines, the produce of the olive fail and the fields yield no food, the flock be cut off from the fold and there be no herd in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the LORD; I will take joy in the God of my salvation. GOD, the Lord, is my strength; he makes my feet like the deer’s; he makes me tread on my high places.To the choirmaster: with stringed instruments. Habakkuk 3:17-19
Prayer: Lord when things seem to be going all wrong, help me to stop and affirm my trust in you. Thank you that this world is just short-term housing. My homeland is in Heaven, where I will live with you forever. Set my heart on eternity Lord. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
