God’ supplemental insurance policy, Part 2
“How blessed is he who considers the helpless; the Lord will deliver him in a day of trouble. The Lord will protect him and keep him alive, and he shall be called blessed upon the earth; and do not give him over to the desire of his enemies. The Lord will sustain him upon his sickbed; in his illness, You restore him to health.” Psalm 41:1-3
If you didn’t read yesterday’s entry, scroll down to read it—God’s supplemental insurance policy, Part 1, before you read this one.
This policy, found in Psalm 41, unlike “The Finished Work” policy (TFW) which Jesus purchased for you with His death on the cross, has a prerequisite for you to fulfill before it is activated—you are to consider the helpless. You need to determine if you want to pay this price before you can take advantage of the policy.
The first listed benefit of supplemental policy #PS41-1-3 is deliverance in the day of trouble. Look at the news and you will see a vast array of troubles. This policy is good for every one of them—from sniffles to war.
What is the day of trouble that you are facing? No matter how distressing it may seem, it doesn’t come close to taxing the broad expanse of #PS41-1-3.
To give you an idea of the range that this policy covers, I will give you two lists. The first one includes some types of everyday trouble you will probably face sometime in life.
- Sickness
- Surgery
- Injury
- Death of a loved one
- Debt
- Joblessness
- Loneliness
- Ridicule
- Sudden attack
- Lies and questioned reputation
- Rebellious, wayward children
- Broken heart
The next list includes some of the trouble that’s currently filling the news.
- Wars
- Economic woes
- Unemployment
- Attacks on First amendment rights
- Massive immorality
- Government overreach
- Stirring of racial division
- Increased violence
- Invasion of privacy
- Identity theft
- Judeo-Christian culture under attack
- Widespread governmental corruption
- Exorbitant national debt
- US borders broken down
- Rampant lawlessness
- Christians persecuted and slaughtered overseas
- Christians openly ridiculed and brought into lawsuits at home
- Tax dollars used to support groups that counter biblical thought
Either list could go on and on, but this is a mere sampling of some of the troubles you may face. The good news is this: Every type of trouble in which you may find yourself, your Agent has provided adequate deliverance for you no matter what it is. In addition to “The Finished Work” policy (TFW), if you have considered the helpless, you have yet another avenue through which to access deliverance from trouble.
The Lord will deliver him in a day of trouble.
Rest assured that if you’ve helped someone else out in their day of trouble, you can cry out for the Lord’s help the very minute you sense that trouble is near. It’s not that you deserve His help; it’s just that He’s ready to extend it to you in ample supply. Remember, however, even if you haven’t considered the helpless, you can still receive help in trouble through TFW policy, paid for in full by the blood Jesus. The supplemental #PS41-1-3 policy merely gives you an added “point of contact” faith-booster, empowering you to persevere confidently until the trouble is routed.
I challenge you to apply this policy—#PS41-1-3—by faith to your daily life. In case you haven’t noticed, the times are escalating into increasing levels of trouble. Now is the time to ratchet up your faith so that you can live victoriously despite the chaos around you. Now is the time to build your faith for deliverance from trouble. Because of that, now is the time to consider the helpless.
Here’s to all those precious souls you will help. And here is to your deliverance from trouble!
