JULY 3
HE’S JUST A PRAYER AWAY

Scripture:  Psalm 46:1-3 “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah”

    In the midst of all our troubles, we have a God who loves us and cares for us and surely knows what we are going through.  The psalmist says here that he is “a very present help in trouble”. Whatever we may have to face today, we have somebody that can help us!  No matter how big the problem or trouble may seem, He will always be there to see us through.  When the night is so long and the valley is so dark, He has promised to His children, that He will be there to help!  What a hope! What an encouragement!        
     The psalmist also tells us in these verses that our God is our refuge.  He’s the One we can run to when the enemy is pursuing us.  He’s the One we can find shelter in and find Him to be a fortress for us, when the battle seems the hardest.  He will also give us strength.  In the battles of life, many times, we fight so hard and so long that we just don’t have any strength left to fight.  That’s when we can run to Jesus and in Him find that the weakness from the battle will be replaced by His mighty strength.
    Because we know this great truth, we can face tomorrow and the day after that and the day after that and continue on and on, because He is a very present help in trouble. Therefore, will not we fear, no matter what may come our way; no matter what the enemy throws at us; no matter how bad the trouble may be! When troubles come across your path today, why not run to Jesus?  Why not flee to Him?  He is your strength!  He is your refuge!  He is your help!  He will surely see you through!
