Teaching The Truth

"There is nothing in this world greater than the Most High. He deserves our deepest loyalty and most fervent praise." (The Names Of God) Are you facing a battle right now? Are you in a warfare with the enemy of your soul? Then do as David did and resolve to "cry unto God." Appeal to His character. Address Him as "God Most High" - El Elyon - and as the "God Who performeth all things for you." This is your key to winning the battle!

"The more our troubles are multiplied, the more earnest and importunate should we be in our prayers. God loves to have us bring before His throne all our sorrows, perplexities, and dangers." (Family Bible Notes) It is important you understand that trouble is a common experience. It may be expected by all. That is not something to despair of. God has an answer for it. It is in your trouble that He wants to show His power.

"If there were no creature, no instruction in the world to help, yet would you not be at a loss in time of need, for He that is on the throne could do it alone. He can do all that ever you need, without any means or instruments. His bare word is sufficient, all sufficient for it, whatever it be, how great, how difficult, how impossible soever it seems." (The Treasury Of David) Perhaps at this point in your life, you are without your "bow," and you find yourself in a time of need. You are not at a loss! JESUS is on the Throne! He can do all that you need, without any means or instruments!

"Let us not trust to the broken walls of our own strength or think to lurk under the tottering hedge of our own wealth, or wind-shaken reeds of our unconstant friends; but fly to God, that He may stretch His wings over us, as the cherubim did over the mercy-seat." (The Preacher's Homiletic Commentary) Mercy is calling you to fly to God that He may stretch His wings over you! Do you hear the call?

"How small is the number of those who keep their affections fixed on God alone!...The saints look more at God than at all that is God's. They say...we desire not Thine, but Thee, or nothing of Thine like Thee." (Treasury Of David) Is this true of the present-day saints? Is this true of you? Are you looking more at God than at all that is God's? Are you truly saying, "I desire not what You have but You"? What does "loving God" look like? What are some of the hindrances to "loving Him"? This teaching will answer those questions for you.

"How much it is more worth than ten thousand mines of gold, to be able to say, God is mine!" (The Treasury Of David) Are you facing insurmountable odds? Is your enemy too strong for you? Have situations become totally out of control? Go before God and plead the covenant. Go to God in prayer, addressing Him as - "My God"! You will get His attention! He will hear your cry and give you the answer you need!

What are you facing today? What kind of experience are you encountering? In the midst of it all, look for God! Let faith arise! Let your confidence in God arise! You have the same spirit of faith as David and Paul. You believe, therefore speak! In the midst of your pain, sorrow, heartache, tragedy, misfortune, etc., declare for all to hear - "I will say of the LORD..."

In the day of trouble, mankind needs to see the Greatness of God. In our generation, it is imperative that mankind sees God's Greatness for, in doing so, they will come to realize their need to commit their all to Him.

As a Christian, are you free? Are you walking in freedom? In John 8:36, Jesus said - "If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed." Sad but true, there are many Christians who are not walking in the freedom Jesus died to give! They cannot say that they are "free indeed"! What about you?

"Everyone today is either leading or being led. We are either advancing onward or sliding backward, contributing to the broken condition of the world or bringing about its healing." (Living Among Lions) You are making progress! Whether you are aware of it or not! Whether you like it or not! You are either moving toward that which is good, or moving toward that which is evil! Which is it?
