He is mighty to save | 1


“The LORD your God is with you, he is mighty to save.” Zephaniah 3.17

The very heart of our hope can be summed up in this beautiful verse – that whatever we are going through, either external difficulties or inward torments, we are not alone. It is also a reminder that the nature of our God who is with us, is not to sit by casually watching our distress but to powerfully intervene and bring change. How can this be more of a reality for us?

One way of seeing the presence of God turned into action is to be more open to the different ways in which his help and salvation might come. The warrior God may well step in and intervene with his mighty sword, or we may find ourselves ministered to completely differently. The Bible illustrates some of the different ways in which the Lord brings his provision.  Even when he supernaturally fed his people, for example, there was such a variety of methods – in the wilderness the people of God were fed regularly with manna that appeared on the ground, whilst Elijah rested whilst ravens brought him food and in the Gospels, Jesus fed a large crowd by holding food and multiplying it.

What is your need? It may be helpful to write it down so that at the end of the day, or in a week or so, you can look at what you have written and record on the same page whatever relates to your need being met. In this way, you will be aware of Jesus who stands with you and is mighty to save.

A healing touch from Jesus can be life changing – which is wonderful! – but if you, or the people you are praying for, are inclined to make any significant change to your lifestyle, please think it through carefully and check it out with a wise friend, doctor or church leader first.
