He must have told himself that no opposition can be stronger than the promise of God. As the hymn writer says, we too must be willing to stand firmly on the promises of God to conquer the howling storms of doubt and all forms of sabotage.

ithout mincing words, God’s guidance is the secret to enjoying abundance in an austere world. God’s provision is waiting for you in the place that He wants you to be at each given time. Hard work in a wrong location will yield nothing but frustration.

A key factor to our ascent in life, therefore, remains a teachable heart. Those who come with the humble disposition that they have not mastered all things will be shown the way to go higher in life.

Venturing into anything without God’s help could have disastrous consequences. If there is anything that is most needful to covet, it is the help of God. We have been promised help; it is about time we claimed it.

Looking at the negative past will ruin sense of esteem and worth. Once you bring your past before the Lord, leave it there. It is time to look forward to the new things that God has in mind for us.

It is God’s own prerogative to work out vengeance in His own way and at His chosen time. To seek out vengeance by ourselves is to take on a role that is strictly reserved for God. It will be absurd for man to usurp God’s role.

We can have no better assurance of freedom from all fears than that which our text conveys. If it is God’s good pleasure to give us the kingdom, we have it on good authority that there is nothing else troubling us that He won’t take over.

We will not be in a position to enjoy the unlimited power of God unless we meet certain conditions, one of which is to trust Him without reservation. Implicit faith in the ability of God to save and deliver is critical to our breakthrough.

Secondly, some people seek God for who He is. This category know and believe that God is worthy of the attention. Finally, some others seek God in response to what He has done for them. This is showing gratitude for the loving kindness of God.

We wait until problems of life loom large, and then we begin to run to God. No doubt, problems have a unique way of stirring people up and turning them to ardent seekers of God. However, this is not what God is looking for. He wants people to seek His face all the time.
