God's Help (Job 14:7-9)

How many times do people get tired of their struggles, discouragement takes over their lives and then we hear from some of these people: "That they no longer have the strength to fight, nor to pray".

Sometimes the problems seem to be so big that there are no more natural expectation for a solution.

But the solution to problems is not always on a natural level, because God's help is independent of the strength of those who face them or of natural issues, because nothing is impossible for God, that is, God works miracles.

Psalm 121:2 My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth.

But, in fights, some people prefer to blaspheme against God and say words that could never be true, because they simply gave up looking for the one who can solve their causes, and who can solve any cause is GOD.

I believe you've heard one of these phrases:

• God has forgotten me.
• God doesn't like me.
• God abandoned me.
• God doesn't want to help me.
• God will not help me.
• If God really existed, He would help me or He wouldn't have let this happen.

And I say to you, that whoever says one of these phrases IS BLASPHEMING AGAINST GOD, because those words are lies and can never be fulfilled.

Rather the truth of God is:

Matthew 11:28 Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.

Isaiah 49:15 Can a mother forget the baby at her breast and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you!

Jeremiah 30:17 But I will restore you to health and heal your wounds, declares the LORD, 'because you are called an outcast, Zion for whom no one cares. 18 This is what the LORD says: I will restore the fortunes of Jacob's tents and have compassion on his dwellings; the city will be rebuilt on her ruins, and the palace will stand in its proper place. 19 From them will come songs of thanksgiving and the sound of rejoicing. I will add to their numbers, and they will not be decreased; I will bring them honor, and they will not be disdained.

And many other Bible verses that expound God's will to help and bless us.

Remember that EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENS IN YOUR LIFE HAS A PURPOSE and the most important thing in all situations is to keep faith and always seek God for the necessary help to overcome problems, because for men there are limits, but for God there are no limits.

Very important is: If there is something in your life that needs to be fixed in relation to God, fix it then, because God's mercy lasts forever.

Psalm 106:1 Praise the LORD. Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good; his love endures forever.

Do not lose strength, because the greater the struggle, the more faith you must demonstrate:

2 Chronicles 15:7 But as for you, be strong and do not give up, for your work will be rewarded.

Jeremiah 31:16 This is what the LORD says: Restrain your voice from weeping and your eyes from tears, for your work will be rewarded, declares the LORD. They will return from the land of the enemy.

NEVER LOSE HOPE, always seek God's blessing.

Job 14:7 At least there is hope for a tree: If it is cut down, it will sprout again, and its new shoots will not fail. 8 Its roots may grow old in the ground and its stump die in the soil, 9 yet at the scent of water it will bud and put forth shoots like a plant.

Romans 8:37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.

The Lord bless you and keep you.
