“This happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead. He has delivered us . . . and he will deliver us again. On him we have set our hope that he will continue 
to deliver us.” 
2 Corinthians 1:9-10 (NIV)

Pastor, if you’re facing what seems like a dead end in 2022, God has something important in store for you. 

The purpose of that dead end is to teach you to trust in God. Why does God let things get so bad and so out of control? So he can force you to learn to trust in him instead of trusting in your own abilities and power.
 
What is God’s promise to you when you trust him? He has delivered you, he will deliver you, and he will continue to deliver you.
 
God uses three different kinds of deliverance in your life:
 
1. God uses circumstantial deliverance. 

Sometimes God miraculously alters the circumstances around you, like he did when he split the Red Sea. That will happen many times in your life, but it’s not going to happen all the time.

2. God uses personal deliverance.

Instead of changing the circumstance, God may change you from the inside. He gives you a new dream, a new vision, a new attitude, and a new perspective.
 
3. God’s ultimate deliverance is Heaven.

God has not promised to remove all of your pain in this world or to solve every one of your problems. Because we live in a broken world, there is pain, sorrow, and suffering. The ultimate deliverance awaits us in Heaven, where there’s no pain, sorrow, suffering, or heartache.
 
Jesus can take the hopeless dead end in your life and turn it into an endless hope.
 
Are you at a dead end in your life or ministry?
 
Pastor, take that problem or situation and give it to Jesus. Because he always looks out for your best interests.
