ONE OF THOSE DAYS

Lord hear me today and deliver me. I want so to do Your will in my life. I feel I have failed You. The burden that is on me is too much. I am weary from the battle, my soul cries out for You to give me peace.

Everyday I wake to the same problem and it seems to get worst with each day. I have tried everything I know to do, and still the glimmers of change I see, which give me joy for a moment, do not last.

I am being attacked on all sides, and I know You are the only true release. I have tried other ways in the past, they did not work.

I wait on You, do not let me fall. I love You so much; and never enough compared to the love You have for me.

You tell me the past is over, forgotten, and You gave me promises that I know You shall keep. Let me feel Your loving touch. Let me know You are here. I feel so alone right now. Empty.

I reach out my hand to You, and it doesn't matter what I feel or don't feel. I know You are there and You love me and for this moment that is enough.

It’s enough for the moment because I know in my heart that Your promises are going to take place. I believe I receive.

The battle is Yours. I will see victory. Praise the Mighty Name of Jesus.

Does that sound like you some days? I have found that when I talk to Jesus in bad times His Word comes to my mind and the peace I seek comes with the Word. I hold on to that and because I know who I am. I know I have the victory in Jesus.

As we grow in the Lord the bad times do not lessen. If we look to the great men of the Old and New Testament we see where in their weaknesses they called upon the Lord. Many of the Psalms are calling out to the Lord in times of distress.

Psalm 6:2, 3 & 8, 9 AMP

2 Have mercy on me and be gracious to me, O Lord, for I am weak [faint and withered away]; O Lord, heal me, for my bones are troubled.
3 My [inner] self [as well as my body] is also exceedingly disturbed and troubled, But You, O Lord, how long until You return, and speak peace to me.
8 Depart from me, all you workers of iniquity, for the Lord has heard the voice of my weeping. 9 The Lord has heard my supplication; the Lord receives my prayer.

By reading God’s word we can see many cases of men crying out to God, and God receiving their supplications [prayers]. Do not back away at these times. Instead run, run as fast as you can into the arms of the Father. He was standing there all the time waiting for you.
