When Things Get Difficult, LEAN on God (2.20.21)

 And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then he arose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm. But the men marveled, saying, What manner of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him!  - Matthew 8:26-27

My Child,
Do not think that I Do not know about your situation.

I Am with you.
You are continually before Me.
And My Hand is upon you.... At all times.  

 

When difficult things happen, know that I Am there with you, bearing you up in My Hands.  Not a single one of your tears escapes Me. Oh, how I Love you, Child.

 

I Want you to Stand TALL and RISE ABOVE your circumstances. 
I Want you to stand against the attacks, and the pressure, coming against you.
I Want you to do this, and you can (and will) do, this by leaning on Me.

I Am The One Who Can speak to the raging storms that are tossing you here and there, to and fro. And I Am The One Who Calls those raging storms to peace.  I Am The One Who Can stop the boat from rocking you.  I Am The One Who Can cradle the rocking boat, and you, within My Protective Arms. 

 

Lean on Me. 
Lean into Me.
Put your trust in Me, now. 
Right now.  Right now.

Do not put your trust in the things that you can see with your natural eyes. 
Do not put your trust in the pressures coming against you.
Rather put your trust in Me, The One, Who Is Always with you. 

For I Am The One Who has never failed you.  I Am The One who holds the whole world within My Hands.  And I Will Do for you what you cannot do for yourself.

 

When the way gets difficult, and you cannot climb any longer, lean on Me; and I will pick you up in My Arms and carry you through.  Lean on Me, when you are weak and weary, and I Will renew your strength.  Lean on Me, and I Will raise you high above the waters which trouble you.  Lean on Me, and I Will snatch you out of the fire and put your feet in a steady place. 

No matter what your situation is right now - lean on Me and do not give up.  You know that I Have great plans for your life.  So, shake off the grave clothes.  Shake off the things that are weighing you down. 

Lean on Me. 
Grab hold of My Hand.
Press forward.
And receive renewed strength
     and joy into your life. 

Lean on Me.  For I Am Here to help you reach the finish line, and enter a bright new day.

 
 

 

Read and Meditate on God's Word

Psalm 73:28 - But it is good for me to draw near to GOD: I have put my trust in the Lord GOD, that I may declare all thy works.

Psalm 121:1-2 - I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth.

Psalm 146:3-6 - Put not your trust in princes, nor in the son of man, in whom there is no help. His breath goeth forth, he returneth to his earth; in that very day, his thoughts perish. Happy is he that hath the GOD of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the LORD his GOD: Which made heaven, and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which keepeth truth forever:

Proverbs 3:5-6 - Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. 

Jeremiah 29:11 - For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.(NIV)

Matthew 11:28-30 - Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
