Deuteronomy 25-26, Psalms 62, Acts 15:19-41
What God said to me – When you face various trials and difficulties where do you run? Do you run to your family and friends for help or for prayer? This is not a bad thing because you do need help and support and encouragement. But if your first reaction is not to cry out to Me, you need to stop and repent. “I AM” your Father. “I AM” your very present help in time of need. “I AM” the One who is carrying out a plan for your life that is for your good and My glory. Whatever the issue is, you need to bring it to Me first. I will comfort you and guide you and give you a peace and a perspective that no one else can. I will let you know what you are to do next – if you should go to others for help or prayer or if you should just wait for Me. The order is important, and it reveals where your faith truly is – come to Me first and let Me lead you.
