LOOK UNTO GOD, NOT UNTO YOUR CIRCUMSTANCES OR STRUGGLES

 "Look to Me, and be saved, all you ends of the earth! For I am God, and there is no other." – Isaiah 45:22 (NKJV)


Life is full of challenges, and when difficulties arise, it’s easy to become consumed by worry and fear. But God calls us to shift our focus from our problems to Him. Looking to God means trusting in His wisdom, relying on His strength, and seeking His guidance in every situation.

God is an everlasting light, and when you fix your eyes on Him, you will see His love, His greatness, and His path to salvation.

Many people struggle with sorrow, doubt, and confusion because they focus only on their problems. Jeremiah 50:6 says, “My people have been lost sheep. Their shepherds have led them astray; they have turned them away on the mountains.” Without God’s direction, we are like lost sheep, wandering in despair.

But when you look up to God, He will give you clarity, peace, and a way forward. No matter how overwhelming your situation may seem, remember that God sees beyond your present troubles and holds your future in His hands.

You need god’s Wisdom in Every Situation. And you must know looking to God does not mean ignoring reality; rather, it means inviting Him into your reality. When you fix your eyes on Him, He will:

● Give You Wisdom – He provides insight to navigate challenges.
● Reveal New Paths – He shows solutions you may not have considered.
● Strengthen Your Heart – He replaces fear with faith.
● Offer Salvation – He rescues you from sin and darkness.

Jesus declared in John 8:12, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness but have the light of life.” If you are feeling lost, turn to Him—He is ready to lead you.

God is calling you today: No matter how difficult your situation, no matter how far you have fallen—look to Him, and He will save you. He promises in Isaiah 41:10,

"Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand."

Prayer: Heavenly Father, I thank You for Your love and Your invitation to salvation. Help me to always look to You instead of my problems. Shine Your light upon me, teach me Your ways, and lead me by Your righteous hand. Give me strength and deliver me from every difficult situation I am facing. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

THE WISEST THING TO DO IN YOUR LIFE

  Daniel 12:3 (GNT) says, “The wise leaders will shine with all the brightness of the sky. And those who have taught many people to do what is right will shine like the stars forever.” This verse speaks about the reward God will give His faithful people on the last day. Those who live with wisdom and lead others to righteousness will shine like stars in the sky—forever. What a powerful promise! Today, I want to teach you how to be wise so you can receive this reward. The Bible says in James 1:5 (NKJV), “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God...”  This means wisdom comes from God, and He is willing to give it to anyone who asks. When you receive God’s wisdom, you will learn how to live the right way and make decisions that please Him. You will also have the power to guide others. The wisest thing you can ever do in life is to preach the Gospel—to help people turn away from sin and accept Jesus Christ. That is the kind of wisdom that brings eternal rewards. Also, if you ...

DO NOT COMPARE YOURSELF TO OTHERS

  "I know what it is to be poor or to have plenty, and I have lived under all kinds of conditions. I know what it means to be full or to be hungry, to have too much or too little. Philippians 4:12 CEV" God’s purpose for humankind is for everyone to succeed, but each person has their own season. Just as each flower blooms in its own time, each of us has a time set by God. When that season comes, God will make you prosper. Until then, keep praying and working hard, trusting in His timing. When you look at your peers, former classmates, family members, or others in your age group and see their success, it’s easy to start comparing. Maybe a friend just built a new house or got a high-paying job, or perhaps someone you know is getting married. If you feel like you’ve achieved more, you may feel good about yourself. But if you feel like you’re still “behind,” it’s easy to feel discouraged and inadequate. This is where your perspective can become distorted. Some people think they ar...
