THE DAILY BLUEPRINT - 1.13.09

Will He Hear Our Cry?
JOB 27.9
Will GOD hear his cry when trouble comes upon him?

This question comes late in the book of Job - Job has lost everything and now his friends have accused him of some hidden sin -that must be the cause of this distress they believe and yet to God - Job is righteous - so righteous in fact satan challenges God to bring some bad things to pass so that Job will deny Him - but all this bad has come to pass and Job is left with nothing but questions - and yet has not cursed God at all - proving what God has said about Job - even so - the human part of Job must have been under great direst - he was at his wits end - or at the end of himself - he does question why did God allow all this calamity to enter his life - and finally asks this question - will God hear him? Many times we feel cut off from God - be it sinful things we have done - or just feeling that God cannot possibly love us - sometimes we all feel like our prayers don't do anything at all - its as if God is not hearing them - but sometimes His answers are not what we had in mind - its as if we do hear and see the answers but don't like them and then go back to prayer again to get what we want - again as I said yesterday it is not about is - its all about God - I know He hears our prayers -but sometimes His answer is wait -other times its no and we just want to push and push till we get the results we have in mind - that my friend is not faith at all - we must trust God and submit to what HE wants to do in our lives - Will HE hear our cries for help - Yes! If you don't have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ your first prayer should be accepting Him as your Savior - and then you can being a prayer life with God -
We must go through JESUS for HE is our intercessor with God - there is no one better for that job - when we pray - lets trust God for the answers even when they don't come when we want them or expect them! God knows our needs even before we ask -what an Awesome God we serve - Praise HIS name!
BUILDING MOMENT: Being mature in our faith means sometimes having to wait and trust and obey - before we get any answers!
Because we have CHRIST - our prayers are heard!
