Stop looking down

 “I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.” Psalms 121:1

Stop looking down, but rather look up to God. The trouble may be around you, but the help you need is up above you. The direction of your look determines the direction of your seeing. When you look down, you see the trouble; when you look up, you see the help you need. What you see determines what you will have. Look up to God to see and receive help from above. Look up to Jesus, who is able to give you faith to conquer the storms of life. Stop looking down at the storm and the challenges that bring fear into your life.

“Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.” Hebrews 12:2

“But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me.” Matthew 14:30

One of the few things I have learned in life is that when you look up to God, you receive faith to win no matter how strong the opposition or the contrary circumstances. However, when you look down at the storm, you receive fear that can cause you to sink. I decree that you will not fail in Jesus' name. To look up means to commit the situation unto God in prayer and to believe that He has taken care of it. I decree that you will not see the storm anymore in Jesus' name.

You shall receive help in Jesus' name.

Prayer for today: Oh God, as I look up unto you, let me be marvelously helped in Jesus' name.

Salvation: Lord Jesus, I believe in the forgiveness of sin and in the redemption from the power of darkness through your blood. I confess you as my Savior and Lord.  I invite you into my life to save my soul. Holy Spirit, come into my heart and make me what you want me to be. Thank you Lord for saving me in Jesus name.
