What Do You Need God To Do Today?


Psalm 46:1
"God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble."

The Bible says that The Lord is our refuge, strength and our ever-present help in times of need. When we need a solution, provision, comfort, miracle now... the Lord is here and He is willing to help us.

My friends, somehow we find it easy to believe that the Lord is able to help us let go of the past and bless us in the future. But we often find it hard to believe that the Lord is able to give us a miracle right now whereever we are, at this very moment of our lives.

In the story of Lazarus in John 11, the bible says that Lazarus has been buried in the tomb for 4 days. His body has started to decomposed.

When the Lord Jesus arrived at the scene, Martha told the Lord, "Lord, if you would have been here earlier, Lazarus wouldn't have died."

The Lord told Martha,"Your brother will rise again."

Not understanding what the Lord meant, Martha goes on to say, "Yes, I believe that Lazarus rise again in the resurrection at the last day."

Jesus replied,"I am the Ressurection and the Life. He who believes in me will live even though he dies, the whoever lives and believes in me will never die. do you believe this?"

You see, Martha believed that the Lord can do a miracle in the past and also in the future, but not now because the situation is hopeless. The situation cannot be reversed, it is game over!

But the Lord has other plans. He is more than ABLE to perform a miracle right this very moment, He is the Resurrection and The Life to all who believe in Him. Nothing is impossible for God and for us who believe.

The Lord said in a loud voice, "Lazarus, come out!" and Lazarus came forth. "Take off his grave clothes and let him go."

My friends, you are the beloved of God. Today whatever mountain you face in your life, whatever storms there is, look to the Lord and say "Lord, You can remove this mountain, calm this storm in my life now. Thank you Lord!"

The Lord is able and willing, He is our ever-present help in times of need! Believe in Him Now!
