Week 125: TRAPPED!




                                          TRAPPED!
But without faith it is impossible to please him; for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Hebrews 11:6


• STUCK!
• IMPRISONED!
• CONFINED!

Even though we’re caged in a human body, bound, and
constrained by laws of nature, we’re not TRAPPED.

          Since God has no boundaries, we’re not trapped. When we put our faith into God’s hands, latch on for a mind blowing ride. God makes the clouds His chariot and rides on the wings of the wind. He makes winds His messengers, flames of fire His servants. (Psalm 104:1-4 NIV)
             
At times we might feel trapped, and overwhelmed in what seems like no win situations. The human side of us will try and solve our own problems. I guess that has something to do with our survival instincts. As much as we would like to run things, we are still human—subjected to deception and physical limitations. 

BUT, God is not human. As long as we stay connected to Him, there are no limitations. No entrapment can supersede God’s promises to us:

• If God is for us, who can be against us? (Romans 8:31)
• All things are possible to them that believe. (Matthew 19:26)
• Fear not I am with you. (Isaiah 41:10)
• Humble yourself before God and in due time He will exalt you. (I Peter 5:6)
 
       The physical body might be trapped, but the spirit is free in Christ. 


                                         Trapped? Unh-Unh!
