A Surprising Help

Will the palm fronds wither,
Will the sky scroll fall,
Will the ocean dry off,
Will the mountains melt,
Will the people who hate you love you,
Will friends become sincere and trustworthy?

None of these will happen just because it’s a new year, but one thing will happen this year.
Everything and everyone you know is still the same.

Everywhere and places you’ve been are still the same; there’s only one thing I know that won’t be the same: the Lord will help you.

In the wake of a new year, we’ve expectations and outlined achievements, which is brilliant; most of the time, the year comes to an end without meeting our expectations, but this year will be different; the LORD will help you even beyond your expectations in a surprising way.

I listened to a discussion in the spirit; I saw a young helpless man standing alone over there; at the end of that road were four persons; he hadn’t met them before. I listened, they gathered on how to help him.

You look around you; there’s no help in a few, no friend, no brother, no parent; you’re alone, but don’t be dismayed, for even strangers shall be burdened to help you.

It’s a year the Lord will help many not in the ways we have planned or prayed for, but by His ways and understanding.

There shall be surprising help and helpers beyond our expectations and needs.
