6: Be Not Afraid, I will carry you through
<p>When you pass through the waters . . . they will not sweep over you.</p> <p>(Isaiah 43:2)</p> <p>God does not open paths for us before we come to them, or provide help before help is needed. He does not remove obstacles out of our way before we reach them. Yet when we are at our point of need, God’s hand is outstretched.</p> <p>Many people forget this truth and continually worry about difficulties they envision in the future. They expect God to open and clear many miles of road before them, but He promises to do it step by step, only as their need arises. You must be in the floodwaters before you can claim God’s promise. Many people dread death and are distressed that they do not have “dying grace.” Of course, they will never have the grace for death when they are in good health. Why should they have it while in the midst of life’s duties, with death still far away? Living grace is what is needed for life’s work and calling, and then dying grace when it is time to die. J. R. M.</p> <p>“When you pass through the waters” Deep the waves may be and cold,</p> <p>But Jehovah is our refuge,<br> And His promise is our hold; For the Lord, Himself has said it,</p> <p>He, the faithful God and true: “When you come to the waters</p> <p>You will not go down, BUT THROUGH.”</p> <p>Seas of sorrow, seas of trial, Bitter anguish, fiercest pain,</p> <p>Rolling surges of temptation Sweeping over heart and brain—</p> <p>They will never overflow us<br> For we know His word is true; All His waves and all His billows</p> <p>He will lead us safely THROUGH.</p> <p>Threatening breakers of destruction, Doubt’s insidious undertow,</p> <p>Will not sink us, will not drag us Out to ocean depths of woe; For His promise will sustain us,</p> <p>Praise the Lord, whose Word is true! We will not go down, or under,</p> <p>For He says, “You will pass THROUGH.”</p> <p>Annie Johnson Flint</p>

5: Remind God of His exclusive responsibility:"There is no one like you to help."
<p>Then Asa . . . said, “Lord, there is no one like you to help the powerless against the mighty.” (2 Chronicles 14:11)</p> <p>Remind God of His exclusive responsibility: “There is no one like you to help.”The odds against Asa’s men were enormous. “Zerah the Cushite marched out against them with a vast army and three hundred chariots” (v. 9). It seemed impossible for Asa to hold his own against that vast multitude. There were no allies who would come to his defense. Therefore his only hope was in God.</p> <p>It may be that your difficulties have come to such an alarming level that you may be compelled to refuse all human help. In lesser trials, you may have had that recourse, but now you must cast yourself on your almighty Friend. Put God between yourself and the enemy.</p> <p>Asa, realizing his lack of strength, saw Jehovah as standing between the might of Zerah and himself. And he was not mistaken. We are told that the Cushites “were crushed before the Lord and his forces” (v. 13), as though heavenly warriors threw themselves against the enemy on Israel’s behalf. God’s forces so overwhelmed the vast army of the enemy that they fled. Then all Israel had to do was follow up and gather the plunder. Our God is “the Lord of hosts” (Isa. 10:16 KJV), who can summon unexpected reinforcements at any moment to help His people. Believe that He is between you and your difficulty, and what troubles you will flee before Him, as clouds in the wind. F. B. Meyer</p> <p>When nothing on which to lean remains, </p> <p>When strongholds crumble to dust;</p> <p>When nothing is sure but that God still reigns, </p> <p>That is just the time to trust.</p> <p>It’s better to walk by faith than sight, </p> <p>In this path of yours and mine;</p> <p>And the darkest night,</p> <p>when there’s no outer light</p> <p>Is the time for faith to shine.</p> <p>“Abraham believed God” (Rom. 4:3), and said to his eyes, “Stand back!” and to the laws of nature, “Hold your peace!” and to an unbelieving heart, “Silence, you lying tempter!” He simply “believed God.” Joseph Parker</p>

4: Pray until you believe God
<p>Jesus replied, “You may go. Your son will live.”The man took Jesus at his word and departed. (John 4:50)</p> <p>Whatever you ask for in prayer, believe. (Mark 11:24)</p> <p>When you are confronted with a matter that requires immediate prayer, pray until you believe God—until with whole-hearted sincerity you can thank Him for the answer. If you do not see the external answer immediately, do not pray for it in such a way that it is evident you are not definitely believing God for it. This type of prayer will be a hindrance instead of a help to you. And when you are finished praying, you will find that your faith has been weakened or has entirely gone. The urgency you felt to offer this kind of prayer is clearly from self and Satan. It may not be wrong to mention the matter to the Lord again if He is keeping you waiting for His answer, but be sure to do so in a way that shows your faith.</p> <p>Never pray in a way that diminishes your faith. You may tell Him you are waiting, still believing, and therefore praising Him for the answer. There is nothing that so fully solidifies faith as being so sure of the answer that you can thank God for it. Prayers that empty us of faith deny both God’s promises from HisWord and the “Yes” that He whispered to our hearts. Such prayers are only the expression of the unrest of our hearts, and unrest implies unbelief that our prayers will be answered.“Now we who have believed enter that rest” (Heb. 4:3).</p> <p>The type of prayer that empties us of faith frequently arises from focusing our thoughts on the difficulty rather than on God’s promise. Abraham, “without weakening in his faith, . . . faced the fact that his body was as good as dead. . . .Yet he did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God” (Rom. 4:19–20). May we “watch and pray so that [we] will not fall into [the] temptation” (Matt. 26:41) of praying faith-diminishing prayers. C. H. P.</p> <p>Faith is not a sense, nor sight, nor reason, but simply taking God at His word. Christmas Evans</p> <p>The beginning of anxiety is the end of faith, and the beginning of true faith is the end of anxiety. George Mueller</p> <p>You will never learn faith in comfortable surroundings. God gives us His promises in a quiet hour, seals our covenants with great and gracious words, and then steps back, waiting to see how much we believe. He then allows the Tempter to come, and the ensuing test seems to contradict all that He has spoken. This is when faith wins its crown. This is the time to look up through the storm, and among the trembling, frightened sailors declare, “I have faith in God that it will happen just as he told me” (Acts 27:25).</p> <p>Believe and trust; through stars and suns, Through life and death, </p> <p>through soul and sense, His wise, paternal purpose runs;</p> <p>The darkness of His Providence </p> <p>Is starlit with Divine intents.</p>
