Psalm 22:19
19 But be not thou far [rachaq] from me, O LORD: [Yahovah]
O my strength, ['eyaluwth] haste [chuwsh] thee to help [`ezrah] me. KJV-Interlinear
19 But
Thou, O Lord, be not far off; O Thou my help, hasten to my assistance. NASB
The word of God is the
mind of Christ. These are His thoughts.
Reading and studying the
Bible, and doing so while in fellowship, places His thoughts, knowledge,
understanding, wisdom, in you.
When on the cross, there
was no one standing in His corner. He had been abandoned by everyone, opposed
by everyone, retained loyalties from no one.
Only God, stood with
Him. Only God stands with you.
Regardless of the
circumstances you find yourself in, due to history, due to circumstances, due
to your own decisions, due to whatever, God and God alone, is with you always.
God had a plan for Jesus’
life. He was to go to the cross for you
and me. That plan was not going to change.
Jesus was to endure it regardless of how it progressed.
God has a plan for your
life. Often times we might wonder why certain things happen, but more often
than not, they happen for our own good.
Whether for our learning, whether for someone else's observation, one cannot
say, But God knows what He is doing, and God is never wrong in anything.
God is never far from
you. All three members of the Trinity indwell each and every believer in Christ. That includes you.
God sustains your
life. He is the source of your strength
and all that you are, regardless of what you might think of that.
And as you add doctrine
to your soul, within the framework of Gods spiritual process, then your
strength and inner resources grow exponentially.
God is always there to
help, but in accordance with His wishes and plan and timetable, not yours.
