TOPIC: THE TREASURE WITHIN THE PRESSURE

TEXT: "I will give you treasures hidden in the darkness"(Isaiah 45:3 NLT).

Life can be quite challenging and many times we are brought under untold pressure and
sometimes God doesn't tell us why because He wants us to know who. In Psalm 23 David goes from talking about God, 'The Lord is my Shepherd' to talking to Him, 'Thou art with me'. What happened in between, David learnt that no matter how dark the way is, God is always there to guide us. He realised that its better to walk through the valley with God than to stand on the mountain top alone. God doesn't always light the path in advance, but He promised 'when thou passeth through the water I will be with thee, and through the river they shall not overflow thee"(.Isaiah 42:7). When you feel like you are out of your depth or in over your head, claim the  promise! Job had many unanswered questions, but when he began to understand the difference between reason and relationship he told God, 'I heard about you before, now I have seen you.(Job 42:5TLB). When you can't find the reason, trust the relationship. God won't fail you!

Contrary to what you may think, challenges are not always the work of the devil. Sometimes its one of God's best teaching tools. "About the fourth watch of the night, He came to them walking on the sea...and when they saw Him...they were greatly amazed...beyond measure, and marvelled"(Mark 6:48-51NKJV). 'To you the darkness shines as bright as day. Darkness and light are the same to you(Psalm239:12). Instead of running from your challenges, ask God to open your eyes to the treasure within your pressure. And He will!
