Psalms 138:7 Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me: thou shalt stretch forth thine hand against the wrath of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall save me.

Things going badly or the road is rough? Need revived? David had that relationship with God that in the midst of trouble he knew it work out to his good before Romans 8 was written. He knew who would lift him out of his trouble and who would deal with his enemies.

That is the relationship you need to seek. Job trusted even if God would slay him. David trusted in the one true God to handle it even when trouble was all around. Paul was surrounded by trouble and yet he was not cast down. He knew who would revive him or restore him just as David did. It came because they trusted. You throw everything on Jesus and you will restored or revived by that kind of relationship. When you stumbled, doubted, feared, looked to men you fell from that relationship and God was waiting with open arms to restore that relationship. When you came back in trust and laid it all at His feet you felt alive again.

If you have never yet placed your faith in Christ for salvation, you are dead in your sins and separated from God. He wants to revive or make you alive. It merely takes coming to Jesus asking for forgiveness of your sins because the Son of God paid for them when He died on a cross and rose again to prove He could forgive them. Come and lay it all down and put your trust in Him. He will make you alive. He will revive you! You will be more alive because you will be born again into everlasting life. It will be the relationship the Job, David and Paul had. Come and be revived! He is stretching out His hand of love. He will one day reach out hand against His enemies. Be His friend and child, not His enemy. Come now! You will never regret it!
