CAST DOWN&TURMOIL
Dear children
of God, why do you cast down and in turmoil? Come out of it and seek the
guidance of our Lord Jesus. He will help you find a way out. Cast down and turmoil will not leave anybody,
whether he is King or any ordinary man or woman. Cast down and turmoil did not
leave King David. He speaks to himself
that why are cast down, o my soul, and why are you in turmoil within me? No one
should cast down David because he was a great valor. But the words of the
people cast down him and his soul. As with a deadly wound in my bones, my
adversaries taunt me, while they say to me all the day long, where is your God?
Because of sins: - man is cast down
because of his sins. There is no peace, “says my God, “For wicked”. The reasons for the cast down and turmoil are
sins, wickedness and transgressions. Many without fearing God and obeying his
words, they are doing sins daringly so their conscious pricks and brings cast
down in their heart. When King David did
sin with Beersheba the prophet Nathan came and reminded his sin against God and
Beersheba. Those words of God made him
to cast down and turmoil within his heart. So, what did David do? He has
confessed his sins before the Lord God to get forgiveness and peace of mind.
For I know my transgressions, and my sin is ever before me. Against you, you
only, have I sinned and done what is evil in your sight, so that you may be
justified in your words and blameless in your judgment. Cast me not away from
your presence, and take not your Holy Spirit from me. Jesus Christ has
authority to forgive our sins. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just
to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
Because of sickness: - like a swallow or
a crane I chirp; I morn like a dove, my eyes are weary with looking upward, o
lord, I am oppressed; be my pledge of safety. This cast down and turmoil words
came out of King Hezekiah. Because of his sickness, death point of sickness. Isaiah
the prophet said to him,” thus says the Lord: set your house in order, for you
shall die, you shall not recover. Then Hezekiah turned his face to the wall and
prayed and said, ‘please o lord, remember how I have walked before you in
faithfulness and with a whole heart, and have done what is good in your sight. Hezekiah
wept bitterly with cast down and turmoil. God heard his tearful prayer and gave
fifteen years with his age, the same God with us to hear our prayers in our
sickness and death near bed. Don’t be cast down and turmoil. He took our
illness and bore our diseases. Upon him was the chastisement that brought us
peace, and with his strips we are healed.

Because of works of devil: - the reason
the son of God appeared was to destroy the works of devil. Some time devil will
attack people strait way, otherwise he will attack through some people
indirectly. We no need to afraid or cast down, because one who defeated devil
on the cross, Jesus Christ is with us to protect us from his attacks and deceits.
The one who cast down and troubling you will bear the penalty, whosoever he is.
Put on the whole armor of God that you may be able to stand against the schemes
of the devil. Therefore take up the whole armor of God that you may be able to
withstand in the evil day and having done all, to stand firm. Stand therefore,
having fastened on the belt of sword of spirit, which is the word God.
