Turning to God in Times of Frustration
"And now we are brothers and sisters in God’s family because of the blood of Jesus, and He welcomes us to come right into the most holy sanctuary in the heavenly realm — boldly and with no hesitation. For He has dedicated a new, life-giving way for us to approach God. For just as the veil was torn in two, Jesus’ body was torn open to give us free and fresh access to Him!"
"And since we now have a magnificent King-Priest to welcome us into God’s house, we come closer to God and approach Him with an open heart, fully convinced by faith that nothing will keep us at a distance from Him. For our hearts have been sprinkled with blood to remove impurity and we have been freed from an accusing conscience and now we are clean, unstained, and presentable to God inside and out!" ~ Hebrews 10:19-22 (TPT)
In the book of Hebrews, we find encouragement for God’s people to persevere and draw near to Him. When facing all kinds of difficulties, many of us have a tendency to power through in our own strength. But the reality is, that’s never effective — at least not for long. Instead, God wants us to come closer to Him.
All too often, our frustrations about life impact our ability to submit to God and be intimately connected with Him. Trusting our Father requires humility — we must remember He alone knows all. But we also need to keep in mind that He loves us more than anyone can grasp.
When we stay focused on Jesus, we can take comfort in knowing He’ll lead us through the hard places:
"Do not yield to fear, for I am always near. Never turn your gaze from Me, for I am your faithful God. I will infuse you with My strength and help you in every situation. I will hold you firmly with My victorious right hand.’ “All who rage against you will be ashamed and disgraced. All who contend with you will perish and disappear. You will look for your enemies in vain; those who war against you will vanish without a trace! I am Yahweh, your mighty God! I grip your right hand and won’t let you go! I whisper to you: ‘Don’t be afraid; I am here to help you!’ ~ Isaiah 41:10-13 (TPT)
As you continue walking with Him, trust that He already knows what will happen in your life — and that regardless of what lies ahead, He will never leave you.
Think About It:
• This week, set aside a few minutes of extra prayer time to ask God to reveal His care for you — especially any situations or relationships where you’ve possibly overlooked His presence.
You may be surprised just how active He is in your daily life.
