38. DELIVERANCE FROM TROUBLE

“They wandered in the wilderness in a desolate way; They found no city to dwell in. Hungry and thirsty, Their soul fainted in them. Then they cried out to the Lord in their trouble, And He delivered them out of their distresses. And He led them forth by the right way, That they might go to a city for a dwelling place. Oh, that men would give thanks to the Lord for His goodness, And for His wonderful works to the children of men!” 
Ps 107:4-8

Academic trouble is something that no student desires. Just the thought of it hinders focus and concentration which is required for achieving the best possible results. However, not every problem an undergraduate encounters is a work of the devil, in that sense. Sometimes the person in the problem is the very cause of it.

While ministering to some undergraduates the Lord told me to make them distinguish between who needs miraculous help and who needs a change of attitude. It is not always you need a ‘miracle prayer’ for change. In some cases, all that is required is a change of attitude and practice. For example, difficulty with remembering what was read can be corrected over time by reading and studying more for longer periods at regular times and places. So I asked, “Is the problem you are facing academically one that you can do something about, please sit down.” Quite a number sat down. Now I ask you my reader the same question. Do you need a miracle or merely a change of attitude to deal with what you are facing right now?

Our opening text tells about people who were in dire circumstances. Nothing was working out, even after doing all they knew to do. The bible used the word ‘Distress’. Distress is Psychological suffering or a state of adversity (danger, affliction or need). Are you in distress academically? Are you suffering psychologically or facing adversity? Are you confronted by problems you cannot help yourself out of? It’s time to call upon the Lord like the people in our text. And you know the good news in all this? Back then, ‘they cried out to the Lord in their trouble, And He delivered them out of their distresses’. He will deliver you also today.

Let’s say this prayer together, “Father, I thank You because You are a good God. You promised to deliver me out of my distresses, so today I call out to you concerning my situation (mention it). Please deliver me and lead me forth by the right way. In Jesus’ name, Amen. As simple as this prayer is, I want you to believe that God has come into your situation and shortly you will testify.

You are blessed!

25. How To Increase Your Study Skills So Saul clothed David with his armor, and he put a bronze helmet on his head; he also clothed him with a coat of mail. David fastened his sword to his armor and tried to walk, for he had not tested them. And David said to Saul, "I cannot walk with these, for I have not tested them." So David took them off. Then he took his staff in his hand; and he chose for himself five smooth stones from the brook, and put them in a shepherd's bag, in a pouch which he had, and his sling was in his hand.
