Maintaining a relationship with the Father when things are going great is easy, but what happens when we find ourselves deep in the crevices of the valleys?
Minister William Merced Jr. shared a powerful word with WOWgroup Global Fellowship NY and gave us great examples from the Word of God.
David a great king led his army, but they were losing and he was afraid. We learn from the scriptures that David had to speak the Word and remind himself that God was dependable. God never let him down before. God knew that David was afraid, but through David's sacrificial praise and thanksgiving even when he was at the lowest was acceptable to the King of Kings. The Lord's Word was something that David knew he could hold onto no matter what. Today we learned that as long as we have a firm foundation on the Word of God we can make it through the valleys and on the mountaintops.
1 Chronicles 29:10
David praised the Lord in the presence of the whole assembly, saying, "Praise be to you, O Lord, God of our father Israel, from everlasting to everlasting.
Psalm 56:3
When I am afraid, I will trust in you.
Psalm 56:4
In God, whose word I praise, in God I trust; I will not be afraid. What can mortal man do to me?
1 Chronicles 29:11-13
Yours, O Lord, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the majesty and the splendor, for everything in heaven and earth is yours. Yours, O Lord, is the kingdom; you are exalted as head over all. [12] Wealth and honor come from you; you are the ruler of all things. In your hands are strength and power to exalt and give strength to all. [13] Now, our God, we give you thanks, and praise your glorious name.
