Call Out to Me

DAY 1 OF 6

Are You In Pain?

I went to bed with the worst stomach ache ever and it didn't get better during the night. Curled up and crying, I sat on the edge of my bed in the middle of the night. My family and friends sent me urgent WhatsApp messages, "Go to the hospital, Déborah! What are you waiting for?" But my reply in each case was, "Not until it gets worse!"

Today we're getting down to the nitty gritty. How much longer do you want to carry this pain around with you, when you could be getting help for it? I’m talking about true help from your Father in heaven. How much worse does your pain have to get before you pick yourself up and stop fighting on your own, but bring it before God?

"Call on me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you will honor me.” (Psalm 50:15 NIV). This is a verse we should all know by heart!

God promises you His help, but not just like that! In fact, He is already looking forward to the moment when He will be praised by you for it! Don't let your life be derailed first in order to praise your great God!

It is easy for God to help you! Maybe He can meet you more easily when you are in need of Him than when you’re not.

God also wants you to praise Him for His help in your life, yet we often remain silent and repress our pain, as well as the resulting praise. We even think we can somehow "get it together" on our own. But, honestly, don't we both know that we will come crawling to God in the end anyway?

So why not go right to Him, swallow our pride, and admit to ourselves, "I need you! Now!" You know the saying, "When the need is greatest, God's help is nearest!"

He is close to you today, no matter how long you've tried to manage on your own. Now you may call on Him for help... and then praise Him with all your heart!

It's going to be a good day!

You are a miracle!

Déborah

About this Plan

Call Out to Me

‘The struggle is real’, is something we sometimes say. It’s meant to be funny, but for some of us, it’s less funny, and more real. In the midst of your trouble, who will you choose to call out to? Your addiction…your insecurities…or your God?
