Dearly beloved brothers and sisters in Christ, I greet and bless you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. The blessed word that the Lord has given for you today is from the book of Deuteronomy 26:7-9, “Then we cried out to the Lord, the God of our ancestors, and the Lord heard our voice and saw our misery, toil and oppression. So the Lord brought us out of Egypt with a mighty hand and an outstretched arm, with great terror and with signs and wonders. He brought us to this place and gave us this land, a land flowing with milk and honey”
Our God is a God who respects your voice. Your husband might not have respected your voice. Your wife might not have respected your voice. Your children might not have respected your voice. Because of that, your heart might be filled with agony. The Lord is telling a good news for such children. It does not matter as to who respect your voice or not, my Lord respects your voice.
The people of Israel were suffering for 430 years in captivity to the Egyptians. Initially, they did not realize the sufferings and the pain that they had to go through. As days passed, they were being treated very rudely. It was then that the people of God realized that they needed a change. They also believed that God was the only one who could help them from their problems. Therefore, in expectant of a change, they all looked up to God and cried out to Him for help. God respected their voice. To deliver them out of their captivity, God ordained Moses for their aid. He was able to perform mighty signs and wonders and only then he could deliver the Israelites from Egypt.
It is true that the Israelites were afflicted in that land. They were pressed by all sides; they went through a lot of agony. Through all these sufferings, they needed a miracle in their lives. They needed a breakthrough. God sent Moses and delivered His people from the land of captivity.
My dear brothers and sisters, even today, you might be pressed on all sides, broken by the problems you face, and your hearts might be filled with pain and agony. You might not have anyone to even console you. No one might understand what you are going through. Today the Lord says, “Do not be worried, for I have heard your cry for help.” Like how the Lord sent Moses to deliver His people, similarly, He will send someone to bring you out of your difficulties. Our God is a God of compassion. There is nothing that God cannot do. God knows all your problems. All you need to do is to trust in Him. He will deliver you from all your bondage and He will take you to the land flowing with milk and honey.
God respects your voice. He hears your cry for help. He is a God who cares for His children. God will not leave His children in oppression. He will deliver you. Do not be worried about the storms of your life. It will all soon pass away.
God bless you.
Prayer:
Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. I submit Your dear children into Your loving hands of protection. Lord, You can see the pain and agony that my children are going through. Father, You have said that You respect their voice. I pray that You may bring an end to their pain and agony and give them peace and happiness all the days of their lives. Send Your angels and deliver them from whatever problem that they are going through. Be with them and bless them. In Jesus name we pray,
Amen.
