THE LORD IS YOUR SHEPHERD!

God gives enough grace for each trial we face. Your trial could be sickness, poverty, failure; whatever is your trial, one thing is clear: As a Christian, you are given enough grace to face it. Because He lives, I can face tomorrow. With Jesus, I can face any situation because He promised to see me through (Psalm 91:15). Therefore, let us not look back because we cannot make spiritual progress by looking back. We that walk with the Lord run the straight race through His good grace. You can only run the straight race through God’s good grace by not looking back.

In Romans 8:35, Paul asked, ‘What is it that can distract me from running the straight race with God?’ Can sickness, poverty, persecutions, hardship? No; in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. Trust God’s authority, not man’s majority.  Remember, each day God sends His loving aids to strengthen you and me. His aids are enough to see us through any situation. What is your situation? Remember, the Lord is our Shepherd. If the Lord is your Shepherd, you would not be in want. If the Lord is your Shepherd, His grace would be sufficient for you to face any situation you are in. As long as the Lord is your Shepherd, whatever situation you are in would strengthen your determination and desire for Him. Instead of your situation to hold you down, it would propel you. Instead of your situation to discourage you from praying, it would be an incentive to pray the more.

Ask God to give you enough grace to stand each trial you face. Your trial could be sickness, poverty or failure. Whatever situation you are in, ask God to give you enough grace to overcome.
