Pray to God

This devotion is under editorial review for Scripture reference accuracy.

1 PETER 5:7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

EXODUS 3:7 And the Lord said, I have surely seen the affliction of my people which are in Egypt, and have heard their cry by reason of their taskmasters; for I know their sorrows;

ISAIAH 63:9 In all their affliction he was afflicted, and the angel of his presence saved them: in his love and in his pity he redeemed them; and he bare them, and carried them all the days of old.

JOHN 11:35 Jesus wept.

Naturally, the query "If God cares, why doesn't He do something?" emerges.

The solution is that God has already taken action. Our time to take action is right now.

Through the atonement of Calvary, God has freed humanity from the control of evil and saved us. We have to put our faith in and follow God's Word right now.

You might find it difficult to believe, but God is already making every effort to assist you. However, by doing things in disobedience to God's Word and through disbelief, we frequently prevent God from being a helper in our lives.

The answer is to pray to God to enable us to recognise and respond to the truth. We should ask God to demonstrate to us how we can quit blocking His ability to bless us as He intends.

SAY THIS: God loves me and cares about anything that concerns me.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, We cast all our cares upon You, knowing You care for us deeply. We acknowledge Your love and pity, Your redemption and salvation. Help us to understand Your divine timing and to trust in Your perfect plan. Strengthen our faith, Lord, and guide us to live in obedience to Your Word. Open our eyes to see how we may be hindering Your blessings. We declare Your love for us and Your concern for our every need. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
