Topic: SEEKING SPIRITUAL HELP
Biblical Text: “ Our help is in the name of the Lord, who makes heaven and earth”. [Psalm 124:8]
They say desperate situations call for desperate measures. A lot of people seek spiritual help from anywhere in a desperate situation. A Christian woman was looking for a child; she went to meet a spiritualist who claims to be a pastor. He gave her concoction to drink and boiled egg, which he had already soaked in incantation. Few weeks after, she got pregnant and nine months later she gave birth to a baby girl. The girl at nine years of age is a concern to the family. She will go to the marketplace to steal. The young girl does not understand why she steals. She always hears a voice telling her to go and steal. The mother has been deeply concerned. She had gotten herself into a bigger problem from the place she sought for spiritual help. She thought that her not getting pregnant was an issue, but Satan gave her a bigger problem. There are some ‘pastors’ who charge consultation fee for those seeking desperate spiritual help. Some of them even sell anointing oil for as much as #10,000 a bottle to very desperate individuals. Beloved, when you are desperately in need of spiritual help, be desperate for God. Do not be deceived by those herbalists brandishing themselves as men of God; they will cause you bigger problems than what you took to them. The Israelites were in severe affliction and bondage; they sought spiritual help in God. Pharaoh on the other hand sought spiritual help in magicians and sorcerers. Pharaoh tried to hold down the children of Israelites in their bondage with the help of his magicians and sorcerers but failed. The magicians and sorcerers admitted that there is the finger of God in all the things that Moses was doing. Pharaoh did not have the privilege of seeking spiritual help in the right channel. You have that privilege! The right channel of seeking spiritual help is in God; every other channel will lead to bigger trouble.
