I don’t know about you, but there have been times in my life when I felt helpless in certain situations. No doubt, most people have experienced that feeling of helplessness.
In all likelihood, someone is feeling it this very moment. Hence, this episode title — Hold on: Help is on the Way. So, are you or someone you know feeling an overwhelming sense of helplessness?
If the answer to the above question is yes, my next question to you is, have you prayed about it? Whether your answer is yes or no, I urge you to take a moment and think about exactly, what it is you need. And then, talk to God about it.
What do you need?
Without a doubt, God wants to help you. In fact, He already has provisions available, no matter the need. And a relationship with Jesus of Nazareth guarantees His help.
I love how Philippians 4:19 The Voice Translation puts it, “Know this: my God will also fill every need you have according to His glorious riches in Jesus the Anointed, our Liberating King.”
You see, all we have to do is ask and then trust Him.
Be specific
Now you maybe someone who has prayed and you still feel helpless. Well, if I may offer a suggestion when you pray — be specific. I love the following example in the Holy Bible about a man who needed help.
Luke 18:38-42 New Living Translation says,
“38 So he began shouting, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!” 39 “Be quiet!” the people in front yelled at him. But he only shouted louder, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”
40 When Jesus heard him, he stopped and ordered that the man be brought to him. As the man came near, Jesus asked him, 41 “What do you want me to do for you?” “Lord,” he said, “I want to see!”
42 And Jesus said, “All right, receive your sight! Your faith has healed you.””
Indeed, from the previous scripture, we can see that Jesus directed the blind man to be specific. And when he did, he received what he needed, which was his sight.
