1 Peter 5:7
Jesus cares, he is there with you to take your burden off
from you right now, all you need to do now is to cast all your sorrows,
failures, burdens upon
Him and see him remove them in a flick of an eye.
Human beings are the most doubtful of all creatures. They do
things on their own, that is, depending on their human ability to accomplish
everything even when in difficult situations. Some depend on their relatives for
assistance. The man at the pool of Bethesda in John 5:7 complained that he ‘had
no man’ to put him into the pool for his cleansing. God is always there to
provide our needs. He wants us to trust Him at all time. It is disheartening to
see “many seek the ruler’s favour…” without know that “…whosoever putteth his
trust in the Lord shall be safe (Proverbs 29:25, 26).
Experiences have
shown that when you put your trust and confidence in man, there is tendency
that you will face disappointment. Be wise friend.
The scripture also reveals that the kings that trusted in
the arm of men for victory in battles were all defeated while those that put
their trust in God were victorious. The case study was that of King Hezekiah in
2 Chronicle 32; Hezekiah casted all burden of Judah upon the “… for by strength shall no man prevail.” 1 Samuel 2:9.
Lord for their victory over Assyria. Despite the threat and boasting from Sennacherib, king of Assyria, Judah still prevail over them, Assyria. Why? Because they casted their entire burden upon the Lord. They knew they can not fight and defeat their enemies; therefore, they put everything in God’s hand. We need to understand that we cannot overcome any mighty by the strength that we have and the scripture said that
Until you realize that God has the key and answer to
everything in life, you can not go far in your pursuit.
“ A such trust have we through Christ to god-ward: Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God.”Sometimes in life we solely depend on ourselves for victory or success and end up being failure, why? That answer is simple and that was what Apostle Paul declared to Corinthian church in 2 Corinthians 3: 4 and 5;
Men are limited in everything but God is unlimited in all
things. He owns everything as you know. He is closer to you than the clothe you
are putting on. If the earthly father can take care of their children, how much
more God the own of the earthly father? The maker and owner of all things that
exist. Don’t you think he can take care of your entire situation and the
circumstances that may arise?
Cast all your burden upon Him now for He cares for you.
