Freedom

Called From Distress to Freedom

I called upon the LORD in distress: the LORD answered me, and set me in a large place.

Psalms 118:5

· · ·

In our moments of greatest distress, God answers with His liberating presence.

The psalmist testifies to a personal experience of calling out to God from a tight, confined place and being brought into a broad, spacious place of freedom. God's response to our cries is not merely to comfort us in our confinement but to bring us out into liberty and expansion.

What distress are you experiencing today? Call upon the Lord and trust Him to bring you into a spacious place.

Lord, I call upon You from my distress. Bring me into the broad place of Your freedom and let me walk in Your liberty. Amen.
