JESUS WILL HANDLE IT
“...he leadeth me beside the still waters.” (Psalm 23: 2). That is the Focal Scripture of Streams of Joy Devotional today.
In Psalm 23, David affirmed that the Lord leads him beside the still
waters. In Bible times, a typical shepherd guides his sheep to waters
that are not flowing, so that the sheep can drink without being swept
away. Lions could drink from flowing waters, but not sheep. So the
shepherd knows what the sheep cannot handle, and he handles it.
Friend, if the Lord is truly your Shepherd, He will handle what you
can't handle by yourself; God will fight the battles you can't fight on
your own; God will make provisions that your labour cannot deal with;
God will take you to the heights you may not be able to attain on the
basis of strength or ability; God will make a way for you when you do
not have enough clout to make a way for yourself; God will ‘still’ your
waters.
Today, I see God helping you to handle what you can’t handle; God is opening doors you can’t open by yourself; God will deal with the opposition you can’t confront on your own; God will bring you options when you are out of options; in places where competition will put you in a disadvantaged position, God will deliver your portion on a platter of grace. In places where your strength is not enough, God's strength will help you.
God already knows what you can't handle; He knows the levels you can't attain if you relied on your strength and abilities; He knows the battles you can't fight alone; He knows the roadblocks you can't scale through on your own; Jesus knows your area of weakness, and He will cause His strength to work for you.
Don’t allow your weakness to stop you; don’t give up the fight simply because you can't handle it alone; ask Jesus to come to your rescue; ask Jesus to handle what you can't handle.
Declare With Me: When I can’t handle it, Jesus will handle it for me, in Jesus’ name!
