Make Sure It's Up
In this honest and redirecting message, you'll be asked one of theÂ
most revealing questions a person in a difficult season can face —Â
when things aren't going right in your life, who do you actuallyÂ
look to first? Not who do you eventually get around to, not who doÂ
you turn to after everything else has failed, but who gets your veryÂ
first look when the bottom drops out and life stops cooperating. ForÂ
most people in most hard seasons the honest answer is not God. It isÂ
other people, other opinions, other strategies, other sources ofÂ
comfort, and other places of refuge — all of them reached before theÂ
One who actually has the answer, the authority, and the ability toÂ
fix what is going wrong. The direction of your first look in a crisisÂ
reveals everything about where your trust actually lives.
This episode encourages you to examine honestly where your eyes goÂ
first when life falls apart and make the deliberate decision toÂ
retrain your instinctive response — so that the first place you lookÂ
when things go wrong is up. When the crisis hits and every humanÂ
instinct pulls your eyes sideways toward people, solutions, andÂ
distractions, that's your signal to lift your eyes deliberately andÂ
immediately to the One from whom your help has always and only everÂ
truly come. Look up first. Look up fast. And keep looking up untilÂ
the answer comes — because it always does, from the only directionÂ
it was ever going to come from.
No matter how wrong things are going or how many places you haveÂ
already looked without finding the answer right now, take comfortÂ
in this truth: your help does not come from the hills, from otherÂ
people, or from your own best efforts — it comes from the Lord, theÂ
Maker of heaven and earth, and He has never once run out of it.
🎧 Listen now and be redirected to the only One who has ever trulyÂ
had the answer to everything going wrong in your life — and learnÂ
to look to Him first, every single time.
"I lift up my eyes to the mountains — where does my help come from?Â
My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth."Â
— Psalm 121:1-2 (NIV)
