GOD CARES


READ: PSALM37:3-9
Our God is caring and compassionate. His heart goes out to us whenever we are hurt. He does not only care, He is able to solve any problem we take before Him. He is a prayer-answering God. What else can assure us of certainty in receiving answers to our prayers more than the fact that God cares for us? God’s care and benevolence will never allow us to suffer. His mercy and compassion will never fail. Once you hand your problem over to God, leave it with Him. The bible says, in 1 Peter 5:7: “Casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.” God cares for us. He knows all the details about us. We have to learn from the farmer. Once a farmer has planted a seed, he leaves the rest to God. He knows that only God can cause the seed to germinate and not him, the farmer. The process of the germination of a seed is the prerogative of God. One thing that is certain is that the law of harvest will come to pass: when you sow, you will reap. The same thing goes for giving. When you have given, leave it to God to work out how you will get a hundred-fold in return. The Bible says: “Our soul waits for the LORD; He is our help and our shield. For our heart shall rejoice in Him, because we have trusted in His holy name.” Once you have handed over any problem to God, just begin to rejoice because He will handle the rest. God cannot fail. Your problem, whatever it is, is not too hard for God. What do you do after you have handed over to Him? While you are waiting for Him, continue to rejoice, whatever happens. Fill with praises the moments between the commencement of prayer and the time full answers are received. There should be no doubt in your heart as to whether or not God will fulfil His words in your life. He can. He will.
MEMORIZE: PSALM14:1–The fool has said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none who does good.
