MEMORISE
Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.
Jeremiah 33:3
Read
Isaiah 43:1-7
1 But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine.
2 When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee.
3 For I am the LORD thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour: I gave Egypt for thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee.
4 Since thou wast precious in my sight, thou hast been honourable, and I have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy life.
5 Fear not: for I am with thee: I will bring thy seed from the east, and gather thee from the west;
6 I will say to the north, Give up; and to the south, Keep not back: bring my sons from far, and my daughters from the ends of the earth;
7 Even every one that is called by my name: for I have created him for my glory, I have formed him; yea, I have made him.

Message
TEveryone has someone he or she turns to in the time of trouble. When
trouble comes, some people turn to their friends, while some turn to
their family. Some turn to witch doctors while others turn to idols.
Some even turn to false prophets. In 1 Kings 18
:26-29,
the Bible tells us how some people called on the idol of Baal, but he
did not hear them. Do not turn to idols that have mouths but cannot
speak. Do not put your trust in a man of God. Put your trust in God
only. The moment you trust in the prayers and powers of man, you are
putting a curse on yourself (Jeremiah 17:5).
Those who trust in the Lord when trouble arises are the ones who
triumph. Long after the trouble is gone, they will still be standing (Psalm 125:1-2).
It is only the Almighty God that is available at all times. Once in a
while, we find ourselves in a situation where there seems to be no way
out. If you are a true child of God, there is always a way out. God will
make a way where there seems to be no way. Where there seems to be no
way, turn to the One who is the Way, and He will take you through locked
doors, as He did in the case of Peter in Acts 12:10.
Whenever you call on the Almighty God, He does not delay in answering. There is only one reason why you may call and He will not answer; that is if there is sin in your life and you refuse to let go of that sin. David said in Psalm 138:3: “In the day when I cried thou answeredst me, and strengthenedst me with strength in my soul.”
This is the way of God. God does not delay. He does not enjoy seeing His people in poverty, sickness or sorrow. He does not want you to suffer. If you let go of sin, there is no reason why your prayer will not be answered immediately. In today’s Bible reading, twice the Lord says to you: “Fear not”. This can mean several things. It could mean that there is something that can produce fear but the Almighty God is saying that you should not pay attention to it. Fear comes from something you can see or hear. In 2 Corinthians 5:7, the Bible says we walk by faith and not by sight. In other words, we refuse to look at things that bring fright. Faith also comes by what we hear (Romans 10:17). When others are bringing their evil reports from the devil, you are to hear the report of the Lord. You will have to decide on which one to choose. The report of the Lord is that, with Him, nothing shall be impossible. Therefore fear not.
Action Point: Make this proclamation: “It doesn’t matter what may happen tomorrow, all will be well with me”.
