Journey: 30 Days to a Close Relationship With Godಮಾದರಿ

There are times we all need a little help. When we don't know what to do or how to get there, it can feel hopeless. The Apostle Paul is writing to the Romans here and encouraging them with the truth that there is one who is continually fighting on our behalf.

The Holy Spirit fills the gap when we don't know what to do. When we have prayed and prayed and yet there seems to be no answer. In those moments when you start to wonder if this is all real, the Holy Spirit steps in and helps us.

Have you ever felt hopeless? Have you felt like God wasn't listening? You wouldn't be the first. There have been many people in the Bible who experienced this, and if you've walked with God for any amount of time, you have probably experienced it yourself.

You may not have known this grace is available to you as a believer, but it is! When you don't know how to pray for a situation, ask the Holy Spirit to go to work for you. He is God and knows every aspect of every circumstance. He can intercede on your behalf and make up for when your heart is weary and your faith is weak.

It is time to leave everyone and everything behind and look to the Lord. This is best done in a space by yourself in a room or outside on a deck. Close your eyes and let your thoughts clear. Bring to mind how God has worked in your life.

Prayer: Lord, I thank you that you are good and you do good. There is no one like you in all creation. Open my mind and heart to your Word and help me understand your ways. Thank you, Father, for what you will do today. In Jesus' name, amen.
