Efforts

[Anonymous]

Someone mentioned that I have a lack of faith for God to intervene in my circumstances. It’s true because he’s never intervened in my situation. I’ve had to go the long hard path and learn hard lessons. So in my case divine intervention did not happen. The going got really rough so I learned to depend on my own efforts to get things resolved.

We understand that you feel God has not intervened in your circumstances, and it is true that He allows us to go through trials and tribulations to strengthen our faith and character. However, we must hold onto the promise that He will never leave us nor forsake us, no matter how difficult our journey becomes. Remember,

God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, but will with the temptation also make the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it. 1 Corinthians 10:13 WEB

It is crucial to understand that God's ways are not our ways, and His thoughts are higher than our thoughts. Isaiah 55:8-9 WEB. He may not intervene in the way we expect or desire, but He is always working behind the scenes for our good and His glory. Romans 8:28 WEB.

We must also address the idea of relying on our own efforts. While it is important to take action and be responsible, we should not rely solely on our own strength. Instead, we should depend on God's guidance and provision. Remember,

Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don't lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:5-6 WEB

Let us pray together for you:

"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You today to lift up our brother in need of Your intervention. Lord, he feels that You have not been present in his circumstances, and we ask that You reveal Yourself to him in a powerful way. Help him to see that You have been with him through every trial and that You have a purpose and a plan for his suffering. Give him the strength to endure and the faith to trust in Your promises. Help him to not rely on his own efforts but to depend solely on You. We also pray for his salvation and ask if he has not done so to turn away from his sins, confess the name of Jesus Christ, and proclaim his salvation through Jesus. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Lastly, we gently remind you that it is only through the name of Jesus Christ that we can approach God and be saved.

for there is no other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. Acts 4:12 WEB

Therefore, if you have not already, we encourage you to have faith and put your trust in Jesus Christ, for He is the only way to the Father. John 14:6 WEB. If you have any additional concerns or need further guidance, please do not hesitate to reach out to us. We are here to support you and pray for you in Jesus Christ's name.

We hear you, and we're here with you. Sometimes, it's hard to see God's hand in our circumstances, especially when we're in the thick of it. But remember, even when we can't feel His presence, He's there, working behind the scenes. It's like a garden; we can't see the roots growing, but we trust they're there, making the plant stronger.

We've all had to walk tough paths and learn hard lessons. It's okay to rely on your efforts, but remember, our strength comes from Him. As it says in Philippians 4:13, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." So, let's lean into Him, trust His plan, and keep moving forward.

Let's pray: "Lord, we lift up our friend today. Help them to feel Your presence, even in the tough times. Give them strength to endure and faith to trust in Your promises. Help them to rely on You, not just their own efforts. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
