Time with God - September 6

As life's challenges bring us to our knees, a timeless promise from Isaiah 40:8 reminds us that the Word of the Lord stands forever, offering comfort, guidance, and peace in times of struggle. By turning to Scripture, we can find strength and solace in God's unchanging promises, helping us navigate the darkest moments with hope and resilience.

Isaiah 40:8

“The grass withers and flowers fade but the word of the Lord stands forever.”

The word of the Lord stands forever!

I wonder what circumstances you are dealing with right now as you are faithfully doing your devotional time.

Are you struggling with illness, or with relationship fallouts or with financial pressures?

Life has a way of always bringing something along to get our eyes off Jesus, doesn’t it? It can often feel like we can’t catch a breath. The rhythm of the music we are dancing to is “from one thing to another.”

I wonder what God has to say about the illness you are dealing with right now. I wonder what he has to say about the relationship struggles you are facing. I wonder what he has to say about the financial pressures that are keeping you up at night.

Have you had a look in God’s Word recently? To see what he says about the specific issue you are dealing with?

The grass withers and the flowers fade but the word of the Lord stands forever. Take some time today to look up some promises in the Bible that you can hold onto in your difficult time.

God wants to speak to you. His word brings comfort to broken hearts. It brings guidance where guidance is needed. It brings peace where anxiety and doubt are strong in your mind.

Open the word of the Lord up today and see what God has to say!
