HUTT CITY We exist to bring people into a life changing relationship with Jesus Got a Bible near you? Get it open and look up 2 Corinthians 1: 8 – 11. I’ve been living in this passage for a number of weeks now. Paul is writing not wanting people to be uninformed about the troubles they had experienced. He wants the reader to know, they have experienced great pressures – in fact beyond their ability to endure and the re- sult of this was they despaired for life itself. He says, “Indeed, we felt we had received the sentence of death.” Wow!! You had times like this? Maybe right now you are in the midst of great pressures. Well keep reading...He says, “This happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God – who raises the dead.” What is God chasing in the midst of great pressures? That you and I would not rely on ourselves but rely on God – who raises the dead! Praise the Lord!! It seems to me, it is ok to say to God, “I can’t do this… I have not got the ability to lead in this situation…. I’m looking to you God. I’m relying on you.” Keep reading, Paul goes on to say.. “He delivered us from such a deadly peril and He will deliver us again.” Take a look at your own walk with Him. He has delivered you in the past and hear the word of the Lord for you today – “He will deliver you again!!” Why not, speak that out loud right now just where you are – “He will deliver me again.” Paul concludes this focus by saying, “On Him we have set our hope that He will continue to deliver us.” So often what leaves us in the midst of problems and pressures is hope. I call you to put your hope in Him again today. Paul finishes by saying, “as you help us by your prayers.” Think about this. We help when we pray. Do you want to help others at Hutt City - then pray for them. You are helping them as you pray. Believe it. So, close the Bible you are reading and look to God and tell Him – “my hope is in you Lord. I believe you are the God who raises the dead. I believe you can deliver me and you can deliver all those who are going through circumstances that seem like the “death sentence”. Press on this coming week. Press on in confidence & in hope.
