Look to God, and be Saved!

Isaiah 45:22
Look to me, and be saved, all the ends of the earth! For I am God; there is no other.

We have one problem. Only one. If you are in despair, tossed in turmoil, hopeless, faithless, or afraid, I have good news for you. You have only one problem. And that can be fixed easily enough, almost immediately, if you are willing. Stop looking at the problem. Look up! Look at Jesus.  

The One who loves you most and best, He has not lost sight of you. He is not intimidated by the storm. He is not dead. No! Jesus is alive! Our very present help. He lives to make intercession for us. He is not wringing His hands in desperation, far from it.

Jesus saves. Jesus heals. Our Jesus delivers. He raises us out of the pit. He calls us out of our graves. Look at Him and be saved!  

Consider the One who gave it all. Consider the Man who did not consider equality with God something to be grasped, but put on humanity to redeem us. Meditate on the Son who gave it all to reconcile us with our Father. Surely, you are dearly loved.  

Whatever you need, look at Jesus! Whatever is pressing you, look at Jesus and be saved. He has accomplished it. Place your hope in His finished work and watch what He will do. Look upon Jesus. He will save you. Over and over, He will save you.
