Deep Roots

Hello everyone.  Praise the Lord!

Here is a nice message I wanted to share from an unknown author.

Are you cold? Does it feel like God is a million miles away sometimes? 

You attend church and don’t feel anything? You may be a praise singer, a musician, or the all important member who worships in the pew. You may be a preacher. Keep going. Keep coming. You’re normal, you’re human, and you’re still a Christian. I want to encourage someone who may be cold on God. You want to know why, but the answer doesn’t come, because there are no answers during a test.

When the unclean spirit is gone out of a man it goeth into the dry places seeking rest and finding none. I believe this is because dry places are the strongest places. 

“We are never stronger than when we are at our weakest place, because in our weakness his strength is made perfect.”

It is during these times that there is nothing evident above the earth that would indicate strength, but something is happening in the unseen world, and your roots are going deeper in search of water. The bible says that when Moses struck the rock that the water flowed to the dry places, and when God does move in our lives, there is one thing evident that our trust in him and His love for us is a testimony to ourselves, that He is able to carry us through any situation. 

Keep being faithful to church. “but they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.”
‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭40:31‬ ‭

Preach your last sermon; God will give you another one. Sing your last song; God will give you another one. The oil and the meal may run low, but it will never run dry.

William James Roop
