God's power for the hour
We're not sure what to do, but we know that God knows what to do.
2 Corinthians 4:8 - The Message Translation
God knows how to put things right. One morning I entered the Lord's presence in prayer and enquired of the Lord about a certain set of circumstances I was in. As I did this I heard His still small voice in my heart saying, "Pray to have favour with everyone involved." So that's how I prayed and then in expectation of the answer I walked into my day. Before long I saw the set of circumstances turn around to give a good outcome. Heb.4:16, Heb.10:19-22.
Digging deep into your own strength isn't enough and neither is figuring out what to do with your intellect. Turn instead to God. One moment wholly in His presence and you can find renewing of your strength by His strength. One moment in His presence and you can get to see how all that needs to be done can be done. David the psalmist constantly turned to the Lord for counsel. It's no wonder he lived long and prospered! On one occasion in a certain place the victory he gained when he received the Lord's guidance was so great that he named the place "The Lord of the Breakthrough". 1 Chron.14.
You can have God's enabling and empowering. As the saying goes, "You might not know the answers but you know the One who does." The challenges of the times we live in are very great but the availability of God's provision of equipping is even greater. God is more than able to provide you with the wisdom, strength and ability you need. Ask Him for it. Seek Him. Kknock at His door for entrance into His presence. Mat.7:7-8.
Find your equipping in the Lord's presence
