Help 2 hold on whenever you feel like letting go!
Sometimes it seems that the more we try to do what is right, the more the troubled seas
of trial, tribulation, distress and every kind of imaginable wrong floods into our lives.
Evil seems to be omnipresent and omnipotent. We begin to reason within ourselves;
why bother attempting to fight the good fight of faith? Surely God has forsaken us and the
outcome of our defeat and destruction is already determined. But I remind you that the devil is
liar and the Mighty Arms of God are not short that they cannot save unto the utmost ends of the
universe and reality.
God's People Delivered
Saith the Lord; "Ye shall have a song, as in the night when a holy solemnity is kept; and gladness of heart, as when one goeth . . . to come into the mountain of the Lord, to the Mighty One of Israel. And the Lord shall cause His glorious voice to be heard, and shall show the lighting down of His arm, with the indignation of His anger, and with the flame of a devouring fire, with scattering, and tempest, and hailstones." Isaiah 30:29, 30.
"I will that they also, whom Thou hast given Me, be with Me where I am." John 17:24.
It is at midnight that God manifests His power for the deliverance of His people.
Hold on for your hope in the Lord is not in vain!
Said the prophets of old, as they beheld in holy vision the day of God: "Howl ye; for the day of the Lord is at hand; it shall come as a destruction from the Almighty." Isaiah 13:6. "Enter into the rock, and hide thee in the dust, for fear of the Lord, and for the glory of His majesty. The lofty looks of man shall be humbled, and the haughtiness of men shall be bowed down, and the Lord alone shall be exalted in that day. For the day of the Lord of hosts shall be upon everyone that is proud and lofty, and upon everyone that is lifted up; and he shall be brought low." "In that day a man shall cast the idols of his silver, and the idols of his gold, which they made each one for himself to worship, to the moles and to the bats; to go into the clefts of the rocks, and into the tops of the ragged rocks, for fear of the Lord, and for the glory of His majesty, when He ariseth to shake terribly the earth." Isaiah 2:10-12, 20, 21, margin.
"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." Psalm 46:1-3. "Then shall ye return, and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth God and him that serveth Him not." Malachi 3:18."But you are holy, who inhabit the praises of Israel. Our fathers trusted in You;
They trusted and You delivered them. They cried to You, and were delivered;
They trusted in You, and were not ashamed. Psalm 22: 3-5
The voice of God is heard from heaven, declaring the day and hour of Jesus' coming, and delivering the everlasting covenant to His people.
"His glory covered the heavens, and the earth was full of His praise. And His brightness was as the light." Habakkuk 3:3,4.
"Our God shall come, and shall not keep silence: a fire shall devour before Him, and it shall be very tempestuous round about Him. He shall call to the heavens from above, and to the earth, that He may judge His people." Psalm 50:3,4.
As the living cloud comes still nearer, every eye beholds the Prince of life. No crown of thorns now mars that sacred head; but a diadem of glory rests on His holy brow. His countenance outshines the dazzling brightness of the noonday sun.
"And He hath on His vesture and on His thigh a name written, King of kings, and Lord of lords." Revelation 19:16.
To My Brothers and Sisters who are weary, be encouraged and hold on. Help is on the way; God is not slack concerning His promises to deliver you. Victory is at hand for the day of His coming draws near. Hold on, hold on and again hold on.
