FAITH CAPSULE: The moment you begin to think it is too late is the moment He shows up.

1Samuel 30
 
At a time when David and his men returned to their camp, the Amalekites had invaded and took with them wives, sons and daughters of David’s men. It was not a pleasing situation for David and the people who were with David. The Bible recorded David’s reaction, “Now David was greatly distressed, for the people spoke of stoning him, because the soul of all the people was grieved, every man for his sons and his daughters. But David strengthened himself in the Lord his God.” (1 Samuel 30:6) David knew exactly where to turn to in the face of confronting challenge. David did not allow distress to destroy him when he turned to the Lord for strength.
As the going gets tough, ask yourself, who have you been turning to? That which will make the difference in your time of confronting challenge depends on whom you have been turning to.If one will learn and know to always listen to the living Word of God strength shall flow to deliver one from every spirit that is not represent God.
The Psalmist, by virtue of experience stated, “For He is our God, and we are the people of His pasture and the sheep of His hand. Today if you will hear His voice: ‘Do not harden your hearts, as in the rebellion, as in the day of trial in the wilderness.”(Psalm 95:7)If you have been listening outside of the Word of God there will be no way out. If you are listening to the Word of God without taking His Word into your heart, you have allowed hardness of heart to have its way. Turning your back away from God starts in the heart and is not a sudden occurrence. It takes root when hardness of heart comes into play in the life of a believer. The children of Israel would not obey the Word of God, despite the demonstration of His power in their midst. Acts 7:39testifies, “Whom our fathers would not obey, but rejected and in their hearts they turned back to Egypt.” Keep your heart and enter into a passageto your breakthrough. Allow the Word of God that is strength guide you and see you through. Psalm 33:8, “I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will guide with my eye.”  He is a faithful God. Listen to His voice and let no hardness of the heart deny you from getting to where He is taking you. It is never too late to turn unto the Word of God. God is never late; He is the God of the eleventh hour. The moment you begin to think it is too late is the moment He shows up with His awesome power.
