God, Who Raises the Dead

God won’t bless us if He can’t change us. We can’t stay the same. Some of us may be wondering why we haven’t had a spiritual breakthrough. One reason could be that we’ve not yet been broken. God makes it very clear that He only relates to those who are humble and contrite in heart. Isaiah 57:15 says, “Thus says the high and exalted One who lives forever, whose name is Holy., ‘I dwell on a high and holy place, and also with the contrite and lowly of spirit in order to revive the spirit of the lowly and to revive the heart of the contrite.'” The Most High God hangs out with the lowly and the humble. He cares for those who acknowledge their need for Him. God has to grind away at our pride until we realize we are not self-sufficient.

If you are facing tough circumstances right now, you are a prime candidate for a breakthrough because God is at work through your trials. Paul said, ‘We do not want you to be unaware, brethren, of our affliction which came to us in Asia, that we were burdened excessively, beyond our strength, so that we despaired even of life.” (2 Corinthians 1:80. Paul was burdened beyond his strength to bear it – it was such a deep, piercing, and exhausting struggle. But we know that even if we are in a bad place, it is a wonderful place for God to do an amazing work in our lives.

“Indeed, we had the sentence of death within ourselves so that we would not trust in ourselves, but in God who raises the dead; who delivered us from so great a peril of death, and will deliver us, He on whom we have set our hope.” (verses 9-10). When you are beyond all earthly help, you are better able to trust in God – the God who raises the dead and saves us from death. God lets us get so low that we understand that He is our only real option.
