2 Chron 20:12 “Our God, will You not judge them? For we have no power to face this vast army that is attacking us. We do not know what to do, but our eyes are on You.”
There is something that truly touches me about today’s verses. Perhaps it is the fact that I have been in this same situation many times, feeling beleaguered, feeling hopeless, totally unsure of how to proceed, crying out to God, “I don’t know what to do, but my eyes are on You. Jesus, Help me.”
2 Chron 20:15 “…This is what the LORD says to you: ‘Do not be afraid or discouraged because of this vast army. For the battle is not yours, but God’s.”
God is faithful and true, steadfast in times of trouble. His response is essentially, “I’ve got you. This isn’t your battle. I’m holding you securely in the palm of My hand. Do not be afraid or discouraged.” Thank You, Jesus.
2 Chron 20:29 The fear of God came on all the surrounding kingdoms when they heard how the LORD had fought against the enemies of Israel.
Lord, Thank You for this day and this scripture. Thank You for the reminder that we need to look to You always—in times of trouble, in times of joy, always. Thank You for holding us securely, for fighting our battles, for being an ever present help in times of trouble. Draw us closer. Amen.
2 Chron 20:30 And the kingdom of Jehoshaphat was at peace, for his God had given him rest on every side.
Have a blessed day.
