We all know that when we have a physical emergency we can call “911” and request help. But where do you go when you have a spiritual emergency?
I recently had a person contact me to ask this question: “How do you know what to read in the Bible when you need it?” It’s a great question, so I shared with her a list of “9-1-1 Numbers” in the Bible that I have been giving to people for a number of years. Maybe these will help you also:
When in sorrow, call John 14
When lonely or afraid, call Psalm 23
When you have sinned, call Psalm 51
When you grow bitter and critical, call 1 Corinthians 13
When you worry, call Matthew 6:19-34
When you feel discouraged, call Isaiah 40
When you need courage, call Joshua 1
When you feel down and out, call Romans 8:31-39
When you feel in danger, call Psalm 91
When your faith needs stirring, call Hebrews 11
When God seems far away, call Psalm 139
When you want the secret to happiness, call Colossians 3:12-17
When the world seems bigger than God, call Psalm 70 and Jeremiah 33:3
