Take Courage... God Is Powerful!

DAY 3 OF 7

Let go...He is God šŸ˜‰

Psalm 46:10 tells us, ā€œBe still, and know that I am God.ā€

The Hebrew word for ā€œbe stillā€ is ā€œraphah.ā€ We could translate it ā€œrelax, let it go, be calm.ā€ And to use a more contemporary expression, ā€œLet it go, and know that I am God.ā€

To let it go and draw near to God...the Bible says, ā€œSo let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. [...] we will find grace to help us when we need it most.ā€ (Hebrews 4:16,)

This reminds me of the story of Queen Esther (that you can read in the book of Esther). One day, when the Jewish people faced extermination at the hands of the wicked Haman, Queen Esther decided to pray, to fast, to seek the Lord. Three days later, she went before the king, who extended his scepter to her.

The king said to her, ā€œā€œWhat do you want, Queen Esther? What is your request? I will give it to you, even if it is half the kingdom!ā€ā€ (see Esther 5:3)

Itā€™s a beautiful image of the opportunity we have in coming boldly to the throne of grace. You have free access to Godā€™s sanctuary by and through the sacrifice and blood of Jesus. Not because of your virtues...but because of His. 

Come today...bring to the Lord whatā€™s weighing heavily on you, your burdens, and let go. Let Him handle this situation, this illness, this difficult relationshipā€¦

The Lord says to you today, ā€œBe still, let go, be calm...and know that I am God. In Me, nothing is impossible. I can change everything, transform it all, because I am the Lord, the Almighty.ā€

Have a blessed day!

Thanks for existing!
