“God Is With Us in the Flood”

 

📖“God Is With Us in the Flood”

Isaiah 43:2 | Psalm 9:9 | Psalm 107:29

📚 Opening Reflection:

This week, we're literally experiencing relentless storms and flooding. Many are affected, anxious, and unsure of what might happen next. Yet in the midst of chaos, God's Word reminds us of a powerful truth: We are not alone.

---

📖 Key Scriptures:

1. Isaiah 43:2 (NIV)
   “When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you.”
   ➤ Reflection Question: When was the last time you truly felt God’s presence during a difficult moment? How did He show up?

2. Psalm 9:9 (NIV)
   “The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble.”
   ➤ Reflection Question: What does “refuge” mean to you personally? How do you find safety in God during storms?

3. Psalm 107:29 (NIV)
   “He stilled the storm to a whisper; the waves of the sea were hushed.”
   ➤ Reflection Question: Do you believe God can calm the storm you're going through right now—literally or spiritually?

🌊 Devotional Thought:

The physical storms and floods we face are a vivid picture of the spiritual storms in life. But through it all, God says: “I will be with you.”

God never promised a life free from storms—but He promises His presence through them. His peace doesn’t depend on perfect conditions—it comes from knowing He holds us even when the waters rise.

---

🙏 Prayer:

Lord God,
You see the storms we’re facing—both in the world around us and within our hearts. The rain hasn’t stopped, the waters are rising, and we are weary. But today, we choose to trust You.
Be our refuge. Quiet the storm inside us. Protect our families, homes, and communities. Help us to remember that You are near, faithful, and in control.
Thank You that even in the darkest moments, Your love never fails.
In Jesus' name,
Amen.

🌧️ “Kasama Natin ang Diyos sa Gitna ng Baha”

Mga Talata sa Biblia:

📖 “Kapag dumaan ka sa tubig, sasamahan kita; kapag tumawid ka sa mga ilog, hindi ka malulunod.” — Isaias 43:2

📖 “Ang Panginoon ay kanlungan ng mga naaapi, matibay na muog sa panahon ng kaguluhan.” — Awit 9:9

📖 “Pinatigil niya ang bagyo, kaya’t tumahimik ang alon ng dagat.” — Awit 107:29

======

🌊 Pagninilay:

Sa araw na ito, marami sa atin ang literal na nakararanas ng unos—walang tigil na ulan, tumataas na baha, at pagkabalisa na baka pumasok na ang tubig sa ating mga tahanan. Nakakatakot. Nakakapagod. Nakakapraning.

Ngunit kahit tila magulo ang mundo sa ating paligid, ang presensya at pangako ng Diyos ay hindi nagbabago.

Sa Isaias 43:2, hindi ipinangako ng Diyos na hindi tayo daraan sa baha, pero tiyak Niyang sinabi: “Sasamahan kita.” Ang bagyo ay maaaring malakas, pero mas makapangyarihan ang Kanyang tinig. Ang baha ay maaaring tumaas, pero ang Kanyang pag-ibig ay hindi kailanman nawawala.

Ang mga bagyo—pisikal man o espiritwal—ay bahagi ng buhay. Ngunit bilang mga mananampalataya, hindi tayo kailanman nag-iisa. Ang ating kapayapaan ay hindi nakabase sa kawalan ng unos, kundi sa presensya ni Cristo sa gitna ng unos.

========

🙏 Panalangin:

Aming Ama sa Langit,

Lumalapit kami sa Iyo sa gitna ng bagyong ito—parehong literal at emosyonal. Hindi tumitigil ang ulan, tumataas ang tubig, at kami'y nag-aalala. Ngunit pinipili naming magtiwala sa Iyo.

Ikaw ang aming kanlungan, aming tagapagtanggol, at kasama sa lahat ng pagsubok. Pawiin Mo ang aming kaba. Ingatan Mo ang aming mga tahanan at mahal sa buhay.

Paalalahanan Mo kami na kahit hindi namin makita ang solusyon, Ikaw ay patuloy na gumagawa.

Salamat po sa Iyong biyaya at pag-ibig na sapat sa bawat araw.

Sa pangalan ni Jesus,

Amen.

========

💡 Mga Aral Ngayon:

Hindi ipinangako ng Diyos na walang bagyo—ngunit tiyak ang Kanyang presensya.

Sa bawat baha sa buhay, may Diyos tayong kasama.

Magtiwala sa Kanyang puso, kahit hindi mo makita ang Kanyang kilos.

Ang Kanyang biyaya ang sasalo sa atin sa mga panahong tila hindi natin kaya.
