“Dead-End” Situations…

Truly the love of God and of this world can never be together in one soul, but whichever love is stronger puts out the other that thus it may openly be known who is this world’s lover and who Christ’s follower.

“Dead-End” Situations…

 

That we should not trust in ourselves, but in God.  (2 Corinthians 1:9)

Paul was in one of those "dead-end" situations when he wrote: "We had the sentence of death in ourselves that we should not trust in ourselves, but in God who raises the dead" (2 Corinthians 1:9).

"The sentence of death." That's pretty dramatic language!

Rick Renner says the word "sentence" is from the Greek word krino.

It could be interpreted, "the evidence is presented, the judge has ruled and the verdict is final."

It looked like there was no way for Paul to survive; he was in a dead-end situation.

Is that where you are today?

If so, don't give up.

What looked like the end of the road was in reality the beginning of a fresh supernatural flow of divine power in Paul's life.

That's why he went on to say that through it all he learned not to trust in himself, but in God Who "raises the dead."

Think: when your hopes seem buried and you've nowhere to turn,

isn't that when God's power begins to operate in your life to the greatest measure?

As long as you've a loving Heavenly Father you can call on,

a word from the Lord you can stand on, and faith to activate His promise, ...

you've reason to rejoice.

You have a future! So call on your Heavenly Father today and do it in faith, not doubt.

Expect Him to release His power on your behalf, and then watch Him begin to turn your dead-end situation around.

 

Why?

 

Because now you're beginning to trust the One Who can really do something about it!

 

TRUST Him today!

PRAISE GOD
BLESSED BE THE ONE WHO COMES IN THE NAME OF THE LORD
