Help me, O Lord my God: O save me according to thy
mercy: That they may know that this is thy hand; that thou, Lord, hast done it. Ps 109:26-27
Becoming great in life is a product
of help. To move from one level of greatness to another, help is needed (Ps
18:35). If by strength alone, 1 Sam 2:9 says, “no man shall prevail”. To
“Help” means “to support”; “to make it easier for someone to achieve a task
either by doing it for them, or providing what they need to have the work
done”.
There are two (2) broad categories of
help: The Human help, and The Divine Help. The human help is limited, while
the divine help is unlimited. However, our focus is on Divine help, that is,
Help from above. When help from above is at work, human help is inevitable.
I will lift up mine eyes unto
the hills, from whence cometh my help.My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth. Ps
121:1-2
In life there are certain places/positions
that despite your connections/qualifications/charisma, etc you can’t attain
without help from above. With Help from above, even the Stranger can become a
Kingmaker. It is only with men that
there are impossibilities. With help from above, The Fugitive can become a Nation;
the beggar can even became a Lender; wasted years and efforts can be restored
in multiple folds; battles are conquered without any weapons of war; Life’s
journey is made sweeter; Little efforts yield amazing success. When Help from
above is manifesting, it will be glaring that this is the finger of God.
When God decides to Help, He does at
least two (2) things:
He sends
Helpers:
“Helpers” make it easier for a task
to be accomplished, either by providing you the resources or completely doing the
work for you. God will use helpers to
actualize His promises concerning your life.
Then the spirit came upon
Amasai, who was chief of the captains, and he said, Thine are we, David, and on
thy side, thou son of Jesse: peace, peace be unto thee, and peace be to thine
helpers; for thy God helpeth thee. Then David received them, and made them
captains of the band
And there fell some of Manasseh to David,
when he came with the Philistines against Saul to battle: but they helped them
not: for the lords of the Philistines upon advisement sent him away, saying, He
will fall to his master Saul to the jeopardy of our heads.
As he went to Ziklag, there
fell to him of Manasseh, Adnah, and Jozabad, and Jediael, and Michael, and
Jozabad, and Elihu, and Zilthai, captains of the thousands that were of
Manasseh.
And they helped David against
the band of the rovers: for they were all mighty men of valour, and were
captains in the host.
For at that time day by day there came to
David to help him, until it was a great host, like the host of God. 1 Chron 12:18-23
The domain of God includes the
heaven, earth, and even underneath the earth. Therefore, He can decide to use anything
or anyone to help you. God can use Angels, Birds Highly placed individuals, be
they Christians or not. I want to say to you that HELP is a daily requirement
in life. You need help today more than you needed it yesterday. (1 Chr. 12:22).
He sends His
Word
The word of God is powerful.
The word of God is God Himself. Whatever God can do, His words can do same. God
is a spirit, His sword is Spirit also; God is immortal, His word is forever
settled also; God is powerful; His word is powerful as well.
And the word of the Lord came unto him, saying,
Get thee hence, and turn thee
eastward, and hide thyself by the brook Cherith, that is before Jordan.
And the word of the Lord came unto him, saying,
Arise, get thee to Zarephath,
which belongeth to Zidon, and dwell there: behold, I have commanded a widow
woman there to sustain thee. 1 Kings 17:2-3, 8-9
The word of God is saying to somebody
right now, “The little in your hand that is about to finish will flourish
again”. God’s word is forever settled in heaven. “As God liveth in the land of
famine, you will enjoy the fatness of the earth”. In John 5:2-9, the man at the
pool of Bethsaida was waiting for the moving of the waters, and he waited for
38 years. He was waiting, however, help from above located him. Ps 108:12, “Give
us help from above, for vain is the help of man”. You could also be waiting for a major breakthrough in any aspect of
your life, receive your miracles in Jesus name. To that fellow confined to a
spot by infirmities, by the unction of The Holy Spirit, I say, “Rise up, take
up your bed and walk in Jesus name”,
Ps 107:20
He sent his word, and healed
them, and delivered them from their destructions.
Help from above can really be yours
today provided you’re connected to the one who is from above. A thriving
relationship with God is all that you need to secure his help. When you become
connected to Him, then you are sure that if you call on him in faith out of a
pure heart He will surely answer your prayers. If you’re really desperate for a
great help, then be ready to cry out loud and clear to God. Being a true worshipper is very essential to
receiving His help in very desperate situations.
When he was come down from the
mountain, great multitudes followed him. And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped
him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean. And Jesus put forth his hand,
and touched him, saying, I will; be thou clean. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed. Matt 8:1-3
You are sure of getting God’s
attention in worship, particularly true worship. God inhabits in the praise of
His people. As a true child of God, He expects your praise and worship at all
time. When you praise and worship God, you are making him to find pleasure in
your life, and when He finds pleasures with your life, help in all forms will
be your lot.
Help from above can be yours today, if only you can ask. Please ask today, and ask from the right source: God Almighty
A very good piece. Permission to use re-use it.
