A Call in Need Wednesday
In our message today we see David is in a situation and in need of help. In the main text we read that he did not attempt to wake anyone in the house if there was someone in the house or tent with him, to talk about this thing that was bringing about stress, anxiety and worry in his life. He did not try to get on the phone and call anyone, even though there weren’t any back then, but work with me, he didn’t try whatever the mode of communication was back then. He didn’t do what many today would do, he didn’t text a friend, didn’t post his problem on Facebook, didn’t put his issue on Instagram, didn’t stick his situation on Snapchat, nor did he send out tweets on X pretending everything was good when he was going through hell. But quite the contrary we see him making one call to the ONE who could help him out of his present situation.
You know it befuddles me how so many people will call on everybody in their contact list on their phones, leaning on all the people on their Facebook page they don’t know at all nor how they became friends on the platform or anyone else who is willing to listen. Before they call on GOD, it behooves me! Someone please explain that to me, I just don’t understand it. Calling on people who have more problems than you do. It’s like asking advice about marriage from your friend who has never been married or another one who has been divorced 3 times. I’m not sure if I want their advice about the subject of marriage. Or your single friend who doesn’t have a man, can get a man or keep one when she does meet someone-about relationship advice. That’s like asking the devil how to get saved! As you will hear in this message there is one call to ONE person in your time of need that can make all the difference in your situation, circumstances, and in your life. “Then I called on the name of the LORD: “LORD, save me! Allow me to write that again…. Then I called on the name of the LORD: “LORD, save me!” And the LORD saved him. In his anguish he called GOD! I ask you this simple question; who are you calling in your time of need?
