What happens when the trials of life seems to overtake you?
When you feel as though the enemy has won the battle….
When God doesn’t step in and rescue you from the dark pit you are in….
Maybe you landed in this dark pit because of choices you made and now you think you belong there. Or maybe someone else’s choices got you in there. Now you’re all alone, hopeless, full of pain, shame and guilt. You say to yourself “God, do you care about what’s happening to me? Do you even hear me?” Maybe that’s you right now. It’s ok to feel that way.
My friend, God is still with you even when it seems he’s not and no matter how dark your circumstances are, God is still working behind the scenes. He hasn’t forgotten.
PRAY “Keep on asking, and you will receive what you ask for. Keep on seeking, and you will find. Keep on knocking, and the door will be opened to you. Matthew 7:7
I have been so down where I didn’t even know what or how to pray, maybe you have to. Sometimes just saying the name Jesus is all you can muster up. But what a powerful name it is, just the very name of JESUS sends demons fleeing. He’s the name above ALL names….King of King, Lord Of Lords.
Jesus means “Savior” because He saves people. Do you you need saving precious one or rescuing from that pit? All you gotta do is ask God to meet you exactly where you’re at, even in the pit. It’s the Reckless Love of God, He’s coming after you.
“There’s no shadow You won’t light up
Mountain You won’t climb up
Coming after me
There’s no wall You won’t kick down
Lie You won’t tear down
Coming after me
There’s no shadow You won’t light up
Mountain You won’t climb up
Coming after me“
Give Him your pain and sorrow. “The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” Psalm 34:18
Give Him your tears. “You keep track of all my sorrows. You have collected all my tears in your bottle. You have recorded each one in your book.” Psalm 56:8
It’s ok tell tell him you’re hurting and broken, He already knows, He’s a God of compassion. “As a father has compassion on his children, so the Lord has compassion on those who fear him;” Psalm 103:13
Dear Lord, I thank you that I don’t have to get all fixed up to come to you, thank you for meeting me exactly where I’m at. You know my heart, my every need. You’ve seen each tear I’ve cried. Set me free from the things that bind me. Renew my mind and give me peace and courage to walk in your ways. Thank You for your kindness and goodness. You are so powerful and nothing is to big for you. Stir up the gifts in me, increase my passion to do what you’ve called me to do. In Jesus name, Amen.
Big hugs,
Nicole 💗

Thank you sweetie! I love worship, God has always used it to speak to me.
The last one is our church and it’s one of my favorites. We go to Church of the Highlands, we have several cds you can check them out on iTunes, Highlands Worship.

Do they sing, “Place of Freedom?” I just found someone on YouTube with the name of that group. Did I get the right ones? I don’t know how to do the iTunes thing. It says I have to pay.
