Escaping a Desperate Situation - Dr. Charles Stanley

Family problems, career struggles, legal issues-there’s plenty to worry about in this life. When facing a crisis, we often get anxious and wonder what to do. We might even become bitter and look for someone to blame.
But if we’re walking in the will of God, He takes responsibility for getting us through the tough spots, and He’ll show us how to respond.
Listen as Dr. Stanley examines the story of the Red Sea parting and its meaning for us today. The same God who led His people out of slavery and into a new country will also deliver us from difficulty-and show His glory in the process.
This message is part of the series “Lessons from the Life of Moses (Volume 2)”.

I had my whole family and society against me. I was hurt and abused. After becoming a child of God, God fought all of those that fought me. He lifted me up in mercy and put a wall between myself and those that sought to hurt and destroy me. After 11 years I look for those enemies. I see how he has dealt with me and with them. As the passages indicated, my life is full of peace, joy, forgiveness, and His love. I look at those hurtful and proud folk, and indeed, as God promised, they fell into the holes they dug for me while God protected me. He is truly a loving and wise Father.

i am sorry for your hurt. but this involves another person will besides your own. dont get your hopes up too much. i have been alone for 40 years without my wife returning or a replacement to make me forget about her. she fell into adulter with a family man and later married the man who took her to an orgy where it was a room full of naked people and a camera was present. i had never been so hurt in my life. God didnt intervene to find me a new mate even after i washed my hands for her. you very well may spend the rest of your life alone. i am sorry but it is best to face the truth instead of a lie.

We should always turn to God for his will to be done for you n your wife. Keep living for the Lord n keep trusting his word Jesus name.

I was in my death bed December of 2021, when I began to hear Dr Stanley’s book “How to listen to God” from my audible books. I had never heard of Dr Stanley prior to this desperate time but began to listen to this book which I had purchased and never heard before. It was the message delivered through this book that gave me comfort and peace. I listened to it over and over, I prayed for discernment and began to understand a lot of things. I was hospitalized and in isolation for 2 months, I am still recovering and doing well, I feel truly blessed to have this Angel in the name of Charles Stanley deliver the word of God which I needed to hear, learn and understand may God continue to bless his ministry.

1. God always knows which way is best. 2. God is faithful to provide for His people. 3. God is always present to guide His people. 4. God's simplest command can result in surprising and powerful consequences when we obey Him. 5. Don't look for someone to blame for your circumstances, look for Him to help you. Isaiah 41:10 "So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."
