2 Corinthians 5:7 (NKJV) 7 For we walk by faith, not by sight.
We need faith to face tribulations or hard times in this world, because they will come.
Sometimes tribulations can seem unbearable and it’s hard to have the faith to get us through. Maybe we have been in it for awhile and we are simply drained and discouraged.
We need to ask God today to increase our faith so that we can make it through this battle.
Luke 17:5 (NKJV) 5 And the apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith.”
Jesus instructed us as to how to handle tribulations and trials.
John 16:33 (NKJV) 33 These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”
The Word clearly states that He has overcome the world. In order for us to overcome our hard times, tribulations or battles, our faith has to be in Him, not in what we see happening around us, not in what we hear people saying, and not by listening to someone we put on a pedestal. We will overcome our battle by having faith in The One who has overcome the world.
If this is where we are at today, we’re having a hard time keeping our faith, everything around us is falling apart, and we are tired and confused, we need help. We need faith in God to overcome this.
Take one day at a time and ask God to increase your faith. This thing may be staring us in the face, but as we look to God, we need to remember that He has overcome and He knows just what to do. Follow Him.
Dear God,
We come to You in the name of Jesus Christ, and ask You, Father, to intervene in our situation. It is more than I can handle and I need You. I ask You to increase my faith and help me to trust in You, God, to get me through this trial today.
Lord God, if I have had a part in getting myself into this mess, I ask You to forgive me and help me to see where I went wrong and to help me to not make the same mistake again.
God, thank You today for Your help, for Your increase in faith, for caring, and for Your continued love for me. I give You all the glory, honor and praise for what You are about to do. I pray in the Mighty name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
