Morning Prayer, Tuesday, October 8, 2024 - WORD(S) OF THE DAY: HE IS THERE ANYTIME I NEED HIM
Father God, thank You for always being available no matter the time, day or night. Amen
“In him and through faith in him we may approach God with freedom and confidence."
(Ephesians 3:12)
“Always and everywhere, God is everywhere and He is present." Have you ever called customer service at a company and had to listen to that elevator music or maybe the doctor’s office and was told you could not get an appointment for another few weeks? Most of us have probably at some point or another experienced that. You had to wait to get service. Depending on why you are calling, it can be annoying when you are told, “hold on,” or “Sorry, but we cannot get you in until next month.” Aren’t you thankful that God does not put us on hold. He is available to listen anytime you call, day or night. I'm so thankful for that - I can go to Him whenever I need to, anytime, day or night. In Psalm 91:15, it says, "When he calls to me, I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will rescue him and honor him." God says that when you call, right in that moment, He will answer. The word "when" means suddenly or at the time you ask. We don't have to sit around on hold waiting for God to respond. He may not give you the response you want right away, and sometimes the answer isn't "Yes," but God is always there. He is always listening. His desire is to help us in any way possible. God's availability and willingness to listen to us at any moment is truly comforting. Knowing that we can turn to Him in times of trouble or need without delay is a blessing. His promise to be with us in trouble and to rescue us gives us strength and hope. We can find comfort in the fact that God is around the clock ready to guide, support, and help us through any situation we face.
