GOD ON OUR SIDE

2 Chron 32:7-8
7 "Be strong and courageous! Don't be afraid of the king of Assyria or his mighty army, for there is a power far greater on our side! 8 He may have a great army, but they are just men. We have the LORD our God to help us and to fight our battles for us!" These words greatly encouraged the people.
NLT ** And so too we have the same God that helped them and is with us too! How great it is to be able to read about our God in action and see that He is ABLE to do great and mighty things. He loves us, and wants to fight for us today. But just as king after king in the old testament turned away from this living God, we too try to find hope in ourselves instead of Him. When will we realize that we can do nothing great on our own and need the great LORD God, the same God we read about here. THEN great things can happen, not because we are great, but because He is great thru and in us. I want to turn everything over to God. I need Him every moment of every day for help and protection from all that wars against me and my family.
