“Many are saying, ‘God will never rescue him!’” Ps 3:2 NLT
Have you been praying for years that God will save your husband, your wife, your children, or your friends? Does your heart long to see the people you love serving Him? Are you getting discouraged? Has someone told you, “You’re wasting your time. They’ll never change?” If so, read what the psalmist wrote: “Many are they who say of me, ‘There is no help for him in God.’ But You, O Lord, are a shield for me, my glory and the One who lifts up my head. I cried to the Lord with my voice, and He heard me from His holy hill” (vv. 2-4 NKJV).
The person in this case was the grandson who's own two parents were in and out of jails and prisons for drug related crimes. After much prayer and intervention, Felix was saved and delivered. He joined a Jesus House, at graduation 13 months later he brought the good news of Jesus to his grandmother. Two years later he was basically on his feet, with a job, a place to live and under a pastors teachings and discipleship.
Pay particular attention to the phrase, “many are they who say.” Everybody has an opinion, but until God speaks on the matter, the jury is still out! As long as He’s still on the throne and His promises are still true, keep praying and believing God for a miracle. “But they’re so far from God right now!” you say. They may be, but read this and rejoice: “The Lord’s hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; nor His ear heavy, that it cannot hear” (Isa 59:1 NKJV). Your loved one is not too far gone for God. They may be messed up on drugs and alcohol, having an affair, or even be in prison. Wherever they are today, the long arm of God’s grace can reach out and save them. Satan knows that and he wants you to get discouraged and give up. Don’t do it! Just as power flows through electric wire, God’s power flows through your prayers. So keep praying and believing God!
