Get out of the Pit

Image
I waited patiently for the LORD to help me, and he turned to me and heard my cry. He lifted me out of the pit of despair, out of the mud and the mire. He set my feet on solid ground and steadied me as I walked along. He has given me a new song to sing, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see what he has done and be amazed. They will put their trust in the LORD. — Psalm 40:1-3 (NLT) The LORD is good and does what is right; he shows the proper path to those who go astray. (Psalm 25:8 NLT) Just reflecting on the goodness of God and so grateful He called me out of darkness into His marvelous light. (1 Peter 2:9b) He reached down and lifted me out of the pit of despair and destruction. If you are in a pit today, He is calling out to you. His hand is extended toward you. Grab a hold of our heavenly Father and get out of that pit. Amen.

He Lifted Me Out!

God is with you, and He is mighty to save. He is a shield for you, your glory and the One who lifts up your head (Psalm 3:3 NKJV). Declare Psalm 121:1-2 (NKJV), “I will lift up my eyes to the hills—from whence comes my help? My help comes from the LORD, who made heaven and earth.”

Wait Patiently and with Expectation

He set my feet on solid ground and steadied me as I walked along. — Psalm 40:1-2 (NLT) When your life seems to be in the pits, cry out to the LORD and look up. Wait patiently and expectantly for Him (Psalm 40:1 AMP). The LORD will hear your cry and lift you out of the pit of despair. As the mud and mire of life pulls you down, He will draw you out and set your feet on solid ground.

Are You Bowed Down?

The LORD upholds all who fall, and raises up all who are bowed down.  — Psalm 145:14 (NKJV) In Isaiah 41:10, the LORD says, “ Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.” The LORD is our support. He is there to catch us if we fall. Our heavenly Father reaches down and lifts us out of the slimy pit, out of the mud and mire of life. He sets our feet on a rock and gives us a firm place to stand (Psalm 40:2). Amen!
