THE GOD THAT SEES YOUR TROUBLES

sermon 20.
The god that sees your troubles
A sermon preached on 12th June, 2017.
“O Jacob, how can you say the LORD does not see your troubles? O Israel, how can you say God ignores your rights?”─ Isaiah 40:27 NLT.
T
oday, know that anyone who worships God must have confidence in him, and know that he sees his troubles. You must believe that your troubles are always known by God. He sees you when you stand up at that moment of your troubles, he sees you when you sit down in gloom with a broken heart weighed down by worries of life, weeping as your troubles are raging like a turbulent sea, he sees you even when you have money or food to eat, he sees you when your employer has finally terminated your job, he sees you when your spouse is no more your spouse, he sees you even when the whole world has turned against you, and he sees you as you moan over your health condition. Then why should you say God does not see your troubles? Why should you say God has forgotten anything about you? Are you an unmarried lady? Why should you feel that God is unaware of your seeming problem of getting married? In all, know that God sees you even your problems and he is not silent over them, and you should not misplace your confidence in him. He’ll surely grant you justice over your troubles. Now hear the LORD talking to you─
“I will rescue those who love me. I will protect those who trust in my name. When they call on me, I will answer; I will be with them in TROUBLE. I will rescue and honor them. I will reward them with a long life and give them my salvation.”─ Psalm 91:15-16.
Are you in trouble now? Have you ever called on GOD, cry to him for rescue? God has promised to answer, and honor you and will reward you with a long life and give you his salvation. Why do you complain again? But rather make your problems be known to God, and he’ll make laughter to burst out from your mouth.
Didn’t you know when Isaac was in trouble, when his father was taking him for sacrifice, didn’t God see his trouble? Didn’t God rebuke Abraham not to lay his hand on his son? Didn’t God rescue Isaac from immolation? Then, why would your mind wander away from the true God, the God of ages? Why should you bath with tears all the day long feeling that God has forsaking you?

By the time God met Hagar in a wilderness as she was running away from Sarah her mistress, she said, “You are the God who sees me.”─ Gen. 16:13. Perhaps she was feeling before that God did not know about her trouble, how she suffered in the hand of Sarah, her mistress.

You may be maltreated by your boss, employer, master, or mistress, one thing you should know is that God sees you, and knows what you’re going through. But he’ll not allow the spirit of servitude to overwhelm you. You shall be liberated from the troubles you are now for I am what I am has said it. He’ll deliver you and give you a long life. May God act in your favor and give you justice over your troubles in the name of Jesus. Amen!

Overcoming the spirit of Delay by Fortune Nwaiwu

Overcoming the spirit of Delay A sermon preached by Fortune Nwaiwu on Wed. 20/03/2019 There are forces that are responsible for delaying peoples' blessings, keeping them from progressing, such forces are also responsible delaying some people from receiving Christ as their personal Saviour. With the help of God, those forces hindering your success will stop.  1. The Ethiopian Eunuch overcame the spirit of delay by receiving God's salvation – Acts 8:36  As they went on the way, they came to some water, and the eunuch said, “Behold, here is water. What is keeping me from being baptised?”   He had accepted to follow Christ but was not yet a born again because he was yet to be baptised. His baptism delayed a little, and he wondered what would stop him from being baptised since there was a river to do so. So being a serious minded person to embrace Christ as his Saviour, he was then baptised by Philip. Never you allow the power of darkness to stop you from receiving God's ...

YOUR KING IS COMING

YOUR KING IS COMING A sermon preached on the Palm Sunday !4 th /04/2019 @ A.C.F.M. Umudi Igbodo Etche Rivers State of Nigeria by Fortune Nwaiwu Mat 21:5 KJV: Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass. We are here today to celebrate and to remember a certain day our Lord Jesus Christ rode on a donkey’s colt to Jerusalem. It was a day of his triumphant entry to his church. I have a story to tell you. There was a very poor man walking in a street. His name was James. As he’s walking a man tapped on his shoulder and said, “James, you are a king’. James looked at himself and then retorted: “How can I be a king when I have no kingdom to rule? And how will I acquire the kingdom when my family is poor? Please do not tease me or less my mind explode with false hope. For you to be a king, there must be a kingdom to rule. There must be riches before you become a rich man, and you must have amas...

A BORROWED LIFE

sermon 19. A BORROWED LIFE “But God said to him, “You fool! This very night your life will be required of you. Then who will own what you have accumulated?”─ Luke 12:20 Berean Study Bible. When we gather for a funeral service, it reminds us that death is inevitable, it reminds us that one day, we will equally die. Having conscious of dying should make us to have a good relationship with our God because he has the power to destroy both the flesh and the soul. I want to tell you today that everybody lives a borrowed life. We own nothing about our lives, our lives can terminate at any time. We don’t know when, and where the owner─ the lender of this life can take it back from us. From the parable of the rich fool in the gospel book of Luke 12:13-21, we see that there was a certain rich man who failed to acknowledge God as the source of his life. All his mind was pre-occupied by the worldly riches. As a man who had enough crops, he planned to hoard them, store them up while t...
