Difficult Situations

Difficult situations in life can become a heavy burden. Sooner or later, it becomes too much for you. Your strength is depleted. You give up in a helpless situation. When you labor under a burden of worry and anxious care, there is help which comes from God. The LORD is there for you. He shall sustain you through the difficult situations of life. "Cast your burden upon the LORD, and He shall sustain you" (Psalm 55:22). 

Cast your burden upon the LORD in prayer. God is the LORD. That's God's covenant name. In the LORD's covenant word, He promises to help the believer trusting in Him. In both the Old Covenant and the New Covenant, the LORD promises to be the Helper. Believe the promise of God with sure confidence. He is there for you.

The burdens of life will come. You know what to do with them. Take your burden to the LORD. If you trust the sure covenant promise of the LORD, "He shall sustain you." Take your burden to the LORD through the prayer of faith. Base your faith on the covenant promise of God.

What's your situation today? If you are going through a difficult situation, cast your burden upon the LORD. He is sure to perform His word of promise in your life as a believer. Now, you can say, "The LORD is my helper" (Psalm 118:6). God is your helper through difficult situations.
