Spiritual literacy is important when looking for way of strengthening our walk with Christ. "My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up" (Psalm 5:3). John 15:7 also says " If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you." Praying and learning Gods word are two essential things we must make priorities, just as we do eating, breathing, drinking water and sleeping.
Have you ever found yourself in a place where you were mentally, physically, and emotionally drained? Sometimes we find ourselves in the middle of hell on Earth sometimes by fault of our own and at other times God allowed it. We may feel the anguish of not having an adequate amount of resources to meet a need by a certain deadline and we need a right now miracle. Maybe it’s a family member that is sick and doctors are saying there is nothing left for them to do and you’re left with the decision on when to pull the plug.
In Psalm 6:3-4 David reveals “My soul is also sore vexed: but thou, O Lord, how long?” A lot of times, people faint, or give up after enduring pain and displeasure for long periods of time. We must remember to hang in there with God, and to not throw in the towel just because we’re in our process. No matter what the problem is, know that God can and will deliver his people from it all but we have to abide in him.
According to Psalm 30:5 the word says, “For his anger endureth but a moment; in his favour is life: weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning. Return, O Lord, deliver my soul: oh save me for thy mercies' sake.” God can and will help us to be aware of the fact that trouble does no last always while we are going through. He will teach us strategies that will encourage us to stand on his word while we are going through situations.
