Depending on God

www.bible.com/reading-plans/13828/day/14

The verses in Habakkuk have long been a source of encouragement to me, but the author of this short devotional says it well. No matter what mountain we have to go over or emptiness we feel, we can trust God. He doesn’t change and His habit is to save people…from sin, from troubles, from whatever messes we create. Look at what He did for Noah. He took him out of the world that was about to be destroyed and protected him. That is not to say that we won’t have troubles or difficulties, often created by our own ignorance or willfulness. But it is saying that God loves us and will help us in the way that is best for us. Sometimes He changes the situation, but in my experience, most often He changes my heart so I can see things more clearly and lean into Him for help.

A Promise and a Prayer

Notice the promise that He WILL save us. No question! No doubts! God said it and He will do it. The same God who created us will also save us in the end to be with Him forever. That’s quite a promise, isn’t it?

Whatever we are waiting for from the Lord, He continues to be gracious and our strength. This is a prayer we can pray daily. Amen and Amen.

May you see the Lord’s grace and feel His strength in your life today, regardless of the circumstances. May you know that He is and always will be our salvation.
