Are You Feeling Overwhelmed?

“O my God, my soul is cast down within me; therefore I will remember You from the land of the Jordan, and from the heights of Hermon, from the Hill Mizar. Deep calls unto deep at the noise of Your waterfalls; all Your waves and billows have gone over me.”

PSALM 42:6-7

Ponder This

The River Jordan is called the river of death. Jordan means descent and judgment. It starts up on Mount Hermon. Mount Hermon towers 9,000 feet above sea level. It takes a torturous path down to the Dead Sea. The Dead Sea is 1,300 feet below sea level. And the River Jordan just flows down to the Dead Sea never to emerge again. So, in Bible typology, Jordan has been a picture of death and despair. I’ve been up the headwaters of the Jordan where the waterfalls are. And David felt like he was just being washed over by circumstances. God’s waterspouts were coming over him. He was deluged with problems, and he didn’t know where to turn. His circumstances seemed overwhelming. Maybe you feel that way today.

Don’t let Satan blow out the candle of hope. You need to look inward and analyze your heart. You need to look upward and realize your help. You need to look onward and realize your hope. God’s going to turn your Calvary into an Easter. God is going to turn every tear into a pearl. God is going to arch the rainbow of His grace over your sorrows. God will never be satisfied until he meets the deepest needs of your heart, and you will never be satisfied until your greatest desire is for Him alone.
