Only God

 Scripture:

“Can any of the worthless foreign gods send us rain? Does it fall from the sky by itself? No, you are the one, O Lord our God! Only you can do such things. So we will wait for you to help us.”  Jeremiah‬ ‭14:22‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Observation:

Jeremiah asks the question, “Can any of the worthless foreign gods send us rain?”  He completes the thought by saying, “You are the one, O Lord our God! Only You can do such things.”  Therefore, he determined, “we wait for you to help us.”  Jeremiah realized that only God can really help us when we are in trouble.

Application:

When trouble comes, no other god can help us.  We can’t help ourselves.  Only God Almighty can really help us.  There are times when we need divine intervention.  There are times when nothing we do will be able to get us out of the situation we are in.  No other gods can make it rain, only God.  We need to learn to wait on God because He is the only one who can really help us.  We can’t help ourselves.  We need Him.

Prayer:

Father, I need You in my life.  Only You can bring the rain and only You can turn things around for me.  Only You can restore what the enemy has taken away.  Only You can bring Cheryl and I to the place You have for us.  Only You can bless Word of Life with all You have for it.  Only You can take us where we need to be and bless us.  SO I wait for You Almighty God.

Yours,

Jeff
