WHAT TO DO WHEN WE ARE IN NEED

Oh, to have a genie. Or a Jeannie like the old tv series. But we have so much better, so much more permanent, so much more lasting. We have the Word of God.

Several places in the New Testament answer the question of what we are to do when we are in need. I list just a few with partial reference. Some may well be familiar; some may be new. But I still have a little left-over teacher in me that I don't want to do the telling; I want you to do the searching. So as a former Superintendent of mine used to say, "Have at it."

Heb 4:16 ...approach the throne of grace with confidence to receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.

Luke 11:1-6 ...the Lord's Prayer

Matt 7:7 Ask, seek, knock...

1Thess 5:17...pray without ceasing

Rom 13:14...make not provision for the flesh...

Matt 6:33 seek ye first the kingdom..

James 5:13 is any among you afflicted? Let him pray...

Matt 11:28 come to me...I will give you rest.

Eph 6:10-11...be strong in the Lord...put on the full armor of God...

Phil 4:13 I can do all things through Christ...

This is only a partial list as well. Lean on the Lord. He's there. 24/7.
