Send Now Prosperity

Save now, I beseech thee, O LORD: O LORD, I beseech thee, send now prosperity. Psalm 118:25

We're facing tough times. The entire planet is wading in financial mess, trying not to drown. People could talk for hours passing blame around and spitting out ideas to stem the flow. And many of us are struggling in our own lives to make ends meet. There's more going out than coming in more often than not. But I wonder how many of us are struggling against the tide without ever calling on the One source of relief that can actually make a difference. How ridiculous would it be for someone drowning with a lifeguard just feet away to not call out for help? Yet we do the same thing in every aspect of our lives. We have a God Who can help. We have a God Who WILL help. We ought to be pleading and begging and beseeching with Him to intercede, to be merciful and gracious, to supply. Are we? Or are we just trying to tread water by ourselves?
