TOPIC - WITH GOD, NO CUL-DE-SAC
Read Esther 4:10--17
MEMORISE
But Jesus looked at them and said to them, "With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible. " ( Matthew 19:26)
EXPOSITION
Cul-de-sac is a road with no exit at the end, often in a residential area (a close). In a deeper sense, it is a situation in which further progress is impossible.
David, in his lifetime, encountered so many difficulties that would have given him setbacks in his life's journey. Many at times, as if he had come to the end of the road, there were situations that pressed hard on him. At a point, he was in great despair. He felt as if the whole world was against him. In the situation, he consulted his friend ( Jonathan ) for the way out. They inquired of the Lord through certain strategy and it was plainly shown that if David did not leave that arena, Saul could kill him. This led to David fleeing from King Saul, with the help of Jonathan, Saul's supposed heir to the throne (1Sam 20:1ff ).
How is it with you, presently? God forbids that you are beginning to think of committing suicide. Beheading isn't the solution to a migraine. No matter how bleak the situation might look, there is light at the end of the tunnel. Nothing shall be impossible with God ( Matt. 17:20; 19:26; Lk. 1:37).
Whenever you are in a situation like this, you need not to rush. Ask God for the way out and forward, and ask for good, godly, and relevant pieces of advice from godly persons who can direct you aright. Please, do not give up (Job 13:15). David, Esther and Mordecai overcame; you will also overcome, however tense the situation may be.
Life challenges are not forever; they come and go. Bother not, God is on your side (1 Cor. 15:57). He knows how to make the much desired way where there seems to be no way. This won't be the end of the road for you, as long as you trust in and hold unto Him.
PRAYER POINTS
1. Worship our Lord for His power to turn your situations around, positively, because nothing is impossible with Him.
2. Ask Him to graciously manifest His unfailing power over specific situations in your life, right now.
3. Pray for Christian students in higher institutions, who are being threatened by lecturers /instructors to make life difficult for them if they won't succumb to the lecturers' unholy demands.
EXTRA READING FOR TODAY:
1 Chronicles 12--14 & Philippians 1
Just call on Him now over your unpleasant situations!
