He reached down from heaven and rescued me; he drew me out of deep waters.
Psalms 18:16 NLT
No matter how overwhelming the situation and especially when we feel that we are in over our head walking in obedience to the word of God; the Lord is our very present help. Just as it was with Peter who stepped out of the boat and walked on the water at the word of Jesus, when he became unsettled at the sight of the waves and the wind, he was about to go under but the Lord was there to pull Him up.
Yes, it may appear that all of the trouble started when you made the commitment to do the right thing and walk in obedience to the Lord. This is what happens when we start living life counter to the worlds system. It is only temporary. Keep pressing forward and all that you struggle with now, will soon come to nothing. All that was lost shall be restored and multiplied back to you. The way has been made. The Almighty will not withhold any good thing from those that love and serve Him. We are abundantly satisfied with the rich overflow from His house and as we delight ourselves in Him, He gives us the desires of our heart.
You are not going down and you are not under. His word is within you and His word shall not return to Him void but it shall prosper in the thing where unto He has sent it. The Lord will not abandon the work of His hand and when the enemy comes in like a flood, the Spirit of God shall lift up a standard against Him. The Eternal God will not allow more to come upon us than that which we are able to handle. He will reach down from heaven and rescue us and He will draw us from the deep and set us in a place in Him. Amen.
