Psalm 34:4, 1 Sam 30:1-18, Psalm 34:8, 2 Corinthians 3:4-6, Exodus 20:20, Philippians 2:12-16

Men and brethren, no matter the storm that rages against you, your family, your career and your business, God is more than able to see you through because our God is a specialist of solving problems and bringing us out of trouble. He alone knows how to trouble our trouble. It is therefore essential that we understand the availability and the limitless power of our Awesomely Awesome God and trusting him as the only true Problem solving specialist. I decree, you shall find peace amidst the storms that threaten you.

Right where you are, going into the pity party will only make us a mockery to our enemies and to those who have declared by their words that it shall not go well with you. There is nothing God doesn’t know how to handle. By my spoken word, heaven shall grant you supernatural commanding victory in every battle that rages against you. 

David outlined in Psalms 34 the eight steps to follow to come out of trouble.

Number One: You must come to God in Prayers: “I sought the Lord.” Psalm 34:4. There was a time David went to fight a battle that the Lord did not send him, when he came back to his base; everything was already taken by the enemy. Even his trained boys murmured to stone him. They wept until there was no more strength to weep until he came to God to ask for direction. “Then David and the people that were with him lifted up their voice and wept, until they had no more power to weep” 1 Samuel 30:4. Your part is to pray and invite Him into your life; invite him into your situation. Many times we invite men and not God to settle disputes and quarrel, and increase the tempo of our problems. Husband and wife should learn to invite God instead of inviting a mother -in-law or family relations. Your business that is not moving well requires you inviting God into that business.

Number Two: You must trust God: It is easy to say we trust God than to act out our trust for God. A particular church in the Delta village was told not to clap hands or sing to God because of the appearance of masquerades. When some members of the church started singing and even louder that God is able to deliver them, the masquerades appeared, and Boy oh boy even deacons ran away leaving the Pastor of the church alone to confront their confrontation. They came back when they saw that the power of the devil was subdued by God. The bible says “Blessed is the man who trusts in Him” Psalm 34:8. Put the whole balance of your life, your security, in the Lord. Rely on the character, strength and ability of God to deliver you. Fear and unbelief, which are a lack of trust in God, will hinder or stop you from receiving God’s help. Psalm 25:1-2 says “Unto thee, O LORD, do I lift up my soul. O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me.” 2 Corinthians 3:4-6, Psalm 18:2, Psalm 91:2, Nahum 1:7.

Number Three: You must Fear the Lord: Our generation lacks the fear of God and that is why problems and stagnation are increasing. The pulpit is too watered to bring the manifestation of Gods power because we lack the fear of God. The church has become a social gathering. Men and Brethren, to fear God does not mean to be afraid of Him, but to give Him honour and respect. Take whatever you find in the Word, knowing it is true, and put it into your life. When God speaks, quickly make changes or adjustments. If you fear the Lord, your enemies will be afraid of you. Job 1:8 “And the LORD said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that [there is] none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil?” Mathew 10:28, Luke 1:50, Exodus 20:20, Philippians 2:12-16

Number Four: Seek the Lord with all your heart: The level of your faith and commitment in seeking God will determine the level of your finding him. Listen to the prompting of the inward witness. The counsel of God will deliver you out of trouble. God will protect you, keeping you safe from injury, harm and destruction. He will preserve you by instructing and teaching you, but you must make the effort to listen and learn. Trusting Him causes His mercy to surround you. No man prospers without instruction and instructions comes from seeking God with everything that you have got. Seeking God with all your heart means there is no restriction of time, money, talent or anything or anyone that can limit or stop your relationship with him. Job said to the wife “Thou speakest as one of the foolish women speaketh. What? shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? In all this did not Job sin with his lips.” Job 2:10. Jeremiah 29:12-14, Proverbs 8:17, Isaiah 55:6-7, Matthew 7:7

Number Five: Don’t criticize and judge others: Men and brethren, the loudest sin to confess is the sin of your neighbour. “The Pharisee stood by himself and prayed: ‘God, I thank you that I am not like other people–robbers, evildoers, adulterers–or even like this tax collector.” Luke 18:11. There are two times to pray for a person—when he’s right and when he’s wrong. It is the Lord’s job, not ours, to “bring to light the hidden things of darkness and reveal the counsels of the hearts” 1 Corinthians 4:5. Your part is to “keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from speaking deceit” Psalm 34:13. Please don’t become the Holy Ghost. If your Pastor is not doing well, pray for him or find another church. Someone wrote accusing a Pastor that the money he was to use in the seminary was given to the Pastor by the Parents and he would have become a Priest, and because of that he did not become a Priest but that same God with the prayers of his parents took him overseas and he is doing well. Now he calls the Pastor a ‘Con man’ whereas to God he is ungrateful. Would he have prospered in what he is doing now if he went to the seminary; the answer is no. “Do not stop him,” Jesus said, “for whoever is not against you is for you.” Luke 9:50

Number Six: You must depart from evil: Psalm 34:14 says, “Depart from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it.” Consider yourself dead to sin and alive unto God. When sin calls your name, don’t respond to it. When God calls your name, be quick to respond. Flee every appearances of evil. 1 Thessalonians 5:22, Proverbs 3:7, Galatians 5:1-26, Hebrews 10:26

Number Seven: You must determine to do good: In whatever position you find yourself, you must determine to do good. You are to be like Jesus. Jesus of Nazareth went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed of the devil Acts 10:38. Be busy doing good, praying and ministering to others. “And let us not grow weary of doing good, for in due season we will reap, if we do not give up.” Galatians 6:9, Matthew 6:1-4, Hebrews 10:24, Titus 2:7-9

Number Eight: Seek peace: “Seek peace and pursue it” Psalm 34:14. Don’t be the one who brings discord, quarrelling, fighting and strife. Instead, be the one who brings peace, calmness and harmony. The bible again says “Consider the blameless, observe the upright; there is a future for the man of peace.” Psalm 37:37. Jesus said “”I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” John 16:33. If you don’t have peace, you cannot give peace because you cannot give what you don’t have. “And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.” James 3:18

Finally my brethren, receiving God’s power and deliverance are not automatic. Your deliverance is controlled by how you see God, how you treat God, how you listen to Him and how you obey Him. You must come to a new place of faith and trust in God. You will never be able to fathom with your mind the counsel of the Lord. His wise counsel may even appear to us to be foolishness. But He is far smarter than we are. When you seek God, trust Him, hear His counsel and do what He tells you. He will bring you out of trouble, and trouble our troubles because he is the problem solving specialist. May you fulfil destiny in grand style.
