Trouble - You Are Defeated!

Trouble has a way of coming into our lives.  Trouble is always around lurking to see whom it may devour.  Believe me, I have had my share of trouble.  In fact Jesus said, "In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world."  John16:33.   (Some versions for this scripture, says to "be of good cheer, I have overcome the world." ) 

Some of you may be asking or shaking your head with the following thoughts.  How can I be of good cheer?  How can I take heart and not worry when trouble comes? How can I?  The answer my friends is embedded in the word of God and faith in His word.  How do we activate the answers?  I'm glad you asked.  We activate the answers by praying in faith and praise. 

Let's say that you don't know where to begin your prayer.  I suggest that you look up the word "trouble" in you index.  Here you will find scriptures that reference the word trouble.  Now, let's take a quick look.  Get your Bible.  Psalm 107:13 says, "Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble and He saved them from their distress."  Psalm 91:15 says, "He will call upon me and I will answer him. I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him."  Psalm 86:6-7 says, "Hear my prayer, O Lord; listen to my cry for mercy.  In the day of my trouble I will call to you, for you will answer me."

Pray these scriptures when trouble comes knocking at you life (do this daily). Give God praise for answering you and delivering you from trouble.  Share your testimony with others. 

Hang in there - God oversees His word to perform them.

Be Blessed.
