Weary in well doing?
Ps 30: 7 LORD, by thy favour thou hast made my mountain to stand strong: thou didst hide thy face, and I was troubled.
8 I cried to thee, O LORD; and unto the LORD I made supplication.
9 What profit is there in my blood, when I go down to the pit? Shall the dust praise thee? shall it declare thy truth?
10 Hear, O LORD, and have mercy upon me: LORD, be thou my helper.
11 Thou hast turned for me my mourning into dancing: thou hast put off my sackcloth, and girded me with gladness;
12 To the end that my glory may sing praise to thee, and not be silent. O LORD my God, I will give thanks unto thee for ever.
Here we see the same thing as happened to king David in Ps 6.
2 Have mercy upon me, O LORD; for I am weak: O LORD, heal me; for my bones are vexed.
3 My soul is also sore vexed: but thou, O LORD, how long?
4 Return, O LORD, deliver my soul: oh save me for thy mercies’ sake.
5 For in death there is no remembrance of thee: in the grave who shall give thee thanks?
6 I am weary with my groaning; all the night make I my bed to swim; I water my couch with my tears.
7 Mine eye is consumed because of grief; it waxeth old because of all mine enemies.
8 ¶ Depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity; for the LORD hath heard the voice of my weeping.
9 The LORD hath heard my supplication; the LORD will receive my prayer.
10 Let all mine enemies be ashamed and sore vexed: let them return and be ashamed suddenly.
See it? David goes to God in brokeness and humility, with no where else to go. He tells God his problems, and in the midst of his prayer, Holy Spirit shows up, strengthens his heart, and he goes from defeated to more than a conquerer, knowing the Creator of the Universe has heard, acted, delivered, and is on His side!
This is the heart of any true warrior of the cross. Giving everything we have to God, in service, war, prayer, and finding ourselves often, poured out, cored out, humbled, at His feet, with no where else to go…
There is no where else we need to go!
God is Allmighty and when He speaks, He acts, and His power is displayed, and our warriorhood is echoed from heaven. God Himself comes to our aid, to deliver, establish, and promote us.
So Where are you at today?
In that dark morass, that swampy wasteland, of muck, mire, and lack of direction? Giants surrounding you of despair, debt, darkness, and defeat?
Good! Humble yourself before the Lord, in brokenness, tears, and anguish of soul if you need to, and HE will meet you there, and suddenly, there will be a flash of light, the brilliance of His glory, and you are delivered, risen up in violent faith, knowing you have been heard, answered, and suddenly you are chasing your enemies, instead of them stalking you.
This is the victory, that overcomes this world, even our faith!
Let’s Pray:
‘Father I stand with my brother or sister who is so weary in well doing today. I stand for their deliverance, and trust you to meet with them in power and passion today. May the host of heaven smash through their darkness, despair, debt, depression, and explode with the light of your glory, in your name I pray Lord Jesus! Amen”
