I Need Help!

Asking God to help will always be desirable when the heart has an understanding of the grace of God. Christians who are growing fervently and faithfully in and by the grace of God are aware of God's dependability. There is nothing more obvious about God than His faithfulness. A Christian will never be an imposition to God. Yet, many Believers feel very uncomfortable in asking Christ for help.

It is an absolute fact that each of us will experience the bitter sting of desperation? Desperation literally means to: suffer unbearable anxiety and despair. Although we may not realize it, moments of desperation reveals what we truly think about Christ. God wants you to be comfortable with asking Him for help (Hebrews 4:16). The longer you wait to ask, the weightier your burdens will become. Asking God for help is not impossible. If you will not ask God for help, you will find yourself becoming impossible. Yes, it will likely cost you much to ask God for help if you don't, it will cost you the most.  Remember...  the day you stop asking God for help is the day you start asking for trouble.

Sincerely, Dr. Arthur Belanger

Last Week's Devotion...

Pray Or Stray!

For many Christians, prayer is merely a reaction to conflicting circumstances. Often we are plagued with wandering thoughts that fuels toleration of complicity with the world. Ultimately, Christians who learn to pray biblically are very sure of God's Will. God's Will is not an alternative that we consider in a catalogue of options.

All true and spiritual prayers are virtues conceived by the instigating influence of the indwelling Holy Spirit apart from which all we can attain to is self-pity. Don't tolerate wallowing in self-pity. It is the hall mark of absolute selfishness of which is the compelling justification why we will not trust God with all our heart. The challenge to pray is both perpetual and very personal with God. He determines to root us deeply in His affection for us (1 John 3:1). The closet of prayer is our fortress for change that breeds a perception of the grace of God (Hebrews. 4:16). Amen!

Sincerely, Dr. Arthur Belanger
