TRUST HIM FOR HELP

Isaiah31:1 Woe to them that go down to Egypt for help; and stay on horses, and trust in chariots, because they are many; and in horsemen, because they are very strong; but they look not unto the Holy One of Israel, neither seek the Lord!

Years ago, a relative that was looking for job. He did it the Nigerian way of 'man know man', so he decided to go through an influential Colonel in the Nigerian army. Not long after, while watching the news, he saw the Obituary of the colonel on T.V. and that was the end. Anywhere you look to for help aside God is regarded as Egypt.

The country we live in as Christians has made us to think that when man is not involved, it cannot happen. As believers, God is our sufficiency, they have connection we have 'Godnection', worldly people try to use long leg but we use God-leg because our legs aren't strong but his legs has become ours.

God hates it when we don't put our total trust in Him. You have tried your best by trusting in one uncle or aunty and I think that's enough. Switch to the lane of total trust where God is more than enough for you. What you are struggling for is what some people are getting sweatlessly.

You can't be looking up to God and looking at man at thesame time.Look up to the hills where your help comes from.

Action point

Father, I receive grace to trust in you in alone In Jesus name.
