The Big Idea: 

If God is so powerful that by his word he can create heaven and the earth, is anything I’m facing too hard for him?  Do I have a problem he can’t solve? Do I have a need he can’t meet? Do I have a  burden he can’t carry? No, the God we serve is the maker of Heaven and earth.


Main Points:

1. Having been a Christ-follower for many years, I often think, “For those who have no relationship with God, where do they go in times of need?” Friends and family can only do so much, and there are things we need they cannot provide. As I reflect on my life, I think of the many times I reached out to God in desperation. He has never failed to provide strength, wisdom, peace, encouragement, guidance, and so much more. But imagine having nowhere to turn in your time of need.
2. But whatever the nature of your trouble, don’t give in to despair. We have a God we can turn to in our time of need. He is the Maker of heaven and earth. 
3. Today, you have a choice. Where will you go in your time of need? Who will you look to? I pray you will lift your eyes to the God who is the maker of Heaven and earth.


Today’s Scripture Verse:

Psalm 121:1-2 - “I lift up my eyes to the mountains—where does my help come from?  My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.”

Psalm 46:1 - “God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.”

Hebrews 13:6 - “So we can confidently say, “The Lord is my helper.”
