How To Live in Times like This 1

Psalm 9verse 9 ‘The LORD also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble.’

How do you live in such a time as this? How do you live in the midst of the present challenges of life that we find ourselves? How do you deal with cash scarcity, inflation, insecurity, depression, corruption, anxieties and other uncertainties of life? These are the things that we seek to provide answers to in this lesson by his grace. The good thing to note is that God has promised to be our refuge in such a time as this. This is good news for you as a believer because it simply means that God has not forgotten you and he also has you in his plans. So precious child of God, know that no matter what you have to deal with in these times and seasons, God has your back! There is nothing that confronts you today that God cannot help you to combat and deal with. So cheer up! Your help is here!
So how does God want you to live in such a time as this? He wants you to:

1. Live by his Word. I mean his prophetic Word to you. My dearly beloved ones, our victory is in the prophetic Word. So, how have you been handling his Word to you? Have you taken it seriously or casually? Are you running with his Word or playing with it? How you respond to his Word is what will determine what you will get out of it. Pro13v13. So, my counsel to you is as follows if you will prevail in this season:

-Treasure his Word above every other thing in your life.Jb23v12
-Keep his Word before you day and night.Pro4v20
-Meditate in his word day and night.Ps1v2
-Let his Word regulate every area of your life.Matt4v4
-Speak his Word regularly over your life and situation.Ps56v4
By every possible means, start taking his Word more seriously than ever before because your whole life depends on it. His Word is the most powerful thing that exists and God always has a word for every season of life. Rev3v6, 13, 22.
So do you have an idea of what he is saying to you this season? This is what will bail you out and put you over in life. So watch out for his prophetic Word. Watch out for his sent Word! This is your Word of deliverance and freedom! And as you trust in his Word, your victory shall be guaranteed! Hear the Word of the Lord, child of God, you will not be put to shame as you live by his Word to you in this season in Jesus name, amen. If you are receiving this, can I hear a resounding amen?
