SUPER-NATURAL HELP
Matthew 27:30-32 (32) – As they were going out, they met a man from Cyrene, named Simon, and they forced him to carry the cross. (NIV)
Read: Isaiah 41:10-13
Today’s scriptural focus recounts the help Christ received on His way to crucifixion. The soldiers, having beaten and mocked Jesus, compelled Simon of Cyrene to assist Him in carrying His cross. This scenario teaches us about the place of the supernatural and the role of the natural in enjoying assistance. The supernatural is the grace and power of God that are available to pass the tests of time, while the natural is the human effort and connection required to achieve divine purpose.
Supernatural help is accessible to those who trust in the Lord. However, God will not come down physically to render help. Instead, He uses the natural to validate the supernatural. Throughout the crucifixion phase, God made His power available to Jesus, while Simon’s obligation to assist Him was the natural input. The divine purpose in this is that the nailing of the Saviour to the cross would trigger the world’s salvation.
Beloved, when you follow God’s plan, He graciously intervenes in your life by causing the natural to conform with the supernatural in order to birth your divine purpose. No matter how big a tree is, it can never become a forest; you need people and resources to reach the top. But then, no human or government can assist unless compelled by the supernatural. Above all, in humility, often admit your weakness to God and ask for help where necessary. Always remain sensitive, as God can send angels in the form of men and men in the form of angels to assist you.
