Verse 1
That's the best time to do it! (In fact, I'm told that persecuted Christians in other countries
are actually praying that Americans will begin to face persecution. They are praying this out of
love because they know that in hard times, this is when we lean on God the most).
When we feel secure in our own ability to handle life, the human instinct is to leave God on a
shelf in our own minds. However, when hard times come, we realize that we are fragile
humans in need of a loving, all-powerful God - our Father. He is always quick to draw near
us, just as we would while teaching a young child to walk when it appears that they are about
to fall.
My advice: find a quiet place & a good praise CD. Pop it in, and enter into His presence
with thanksgiving in your heart. Enter His courts with praise. Once you have entered into a
spirit of worship, begin to read the Bible, or you could simply sit quietly, and wait to hear
from God. (Prayer isn't always an act of speaking - the best prayers are often the act of
listening). Lean on His guidance, and He will direct your paths. You are NOT alone!
Verse 2
One of my favorite verses is Isaiah 41:13 "For I the Lord thy God will hold thy right hand,
saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee." Whenever I am in a time where there are troubles,
or if I am afraid for whatever reason, I quote this verse to myself and say a prayer asking God
to hold my hand, and help me through whatever the problem is. Praise God for this verse! It
has helped me so much in the past... public speaking, awkward doctor visits, etc. I am so
thankful for this verse and others in the Bible like it. I sincerely hope this helps you!
Verse 3
P.U.S.H. Pray till something happens!
A.S.A.P. Always say a prayer
Remember that God wants us to need him and waits for us to ask for what we need. Even
though we just have to try it our way first-have you ever thought about it that until we
REALLY turn it over to him we don't get it resolved, but when we do things just work
out--That's HIM. It is gonna be his way sooner or later anyway.
