God Who Answers and Strengthens:
Today, I want us to remind ourselves, that we serve a God who hears our cries and responds with love and power.
In Psalm 138:3, we find a powerful testimony to the faithfulness of our Lord.
“In the day when I cried thou answeredst me, and strengthenedst me with strength in my soul.”
From this powerful scripture, we can draw the following:
I. We Serve a God Who Answers:
"In the day when I cried thou answeredst me..."
Our God is not distant or disinterested, but a loving Father who is attentive to the needs of His children.
No matter how dire our circumstances may seem, we can be assured that the Lord hears our cries and will respond in His perfect timing.
II. We Serve a God Who Strengthens:
"...and strengthenedst me with strength in my soul."
Not only does the Lord answer our prayers, but He also strengthens us with the power we need to endure to victory.
The psalmist testifies that when he cried out, God not only heard him, but also increased the strength of his soul.
This is a beautiful picture of the way God works in our lives. He meets us in our weakness and infuses us with His divine strength, empowering us to face the challenges before us.
When we are weary, when our spirits are low, when the burdens of life threaten to overwhelm us, we can turn to the God who strengthens.
He will renew our strength, fill us with His peace, and give us the courage to persevere.
In conclusion, let us take comfort in the fact that our God is the God who answers and the God who strengthens.
When we call upon Him, He will hear our cries and respond with His loving provision.
Let us confidently approach the throne of grace, knowing that our God is faithful and true. He will answer us and strengthen us.
