When you feel the pressure – praise! Be thankful and remember “He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world” (1 John 4:4) Do you remember when you were a small child and crossing a busy street was intimidating. But there was never much fear when someone was there to help you. And God has said
“For I, the Lord your God, will hold your right hand, Saying to you, 'Fear not, I will help you.” (Isa 41:13)
So if what you’re facing is making your heart sink and you think that you’ll never get through it. Remember that you are not alone but with your Almighty Father. He will lead you to the other side and comfort you along the way. He’s in charge and able to bring all the traffic to a stop if necessary. So when you feel the pressure – Praise! Not praise for the adversity but because the One who is with you is greater than all and able to help you overcome every obstacle!
Isa 41:10-13
10 Fear not, for I am with you;
Be not dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you,
Yes, I will help you,
I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.'
11 "Behold, all those who were incensed against you
Shall be ashamed and disgraced;
They shall be as nothing,
And those who strive with you shall perish.
12 You shall seek them and not find them —
Those who contended with you.
Those who war against you
Shall be as nothing,
As a nonexistent thing.
13 For I, the Lord your God, will hold your right hand,
Saying to you, 'Fear not, I will help you.'
NKJV
Ps 91:14-16
14 "Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore I will deliver him;
I will set him on high, because he has known My name.
15 He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble;
I will deliver him and honor him.
16 With long life I will satisfy him,
And show him My salvation."
NKJV
Prayer helps you get God’s perspective when you feel overwhelmed and small it’s like He puts you on His shoulders and makes you real tall.
