When people are brought low and you say, “Lift them up!” then he will save the downcast. - Job 22:29 (NIV)

One of the cartoons I enjoyed most during my childhood kept viewers captivated by encouraging us to actively participate. One way it did this was by asking viewers to call for a specific character to bring tools that would assist the characters in their challenges. He was always there at just the right moment whenever we summoned him.

Similarly, in challenging moments of our lives, we can call on God for assistance, deliverance, and rescue as children of God. Believe it or not, I often feel childlike when I reach out to the Lord for help. I have witnessed God’s aid countless times whenever I have called on God’s name.

Life can be tough and may bring us down at times, but we should remind ourselves that God offers help. God is always present to lift us up, encourage us, and bring joy back into our lives. God is never far away and is eagerly awaiting the chance to assist us whenever we feel stuck, cannot manage on our own, or lack answers. God is only one call away, ready to provide us with the necessary tools to navigate through life.

Today's Prayer
Loving God, thank you for always being ready to help us. May we remember to always call on you for help. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
