Our God Helps Us Fight

Scripture 2 Chron 32:8 With him is an arm of flesh; but with us is the LORD our God, to help us and to fight our battles.” And the people were strengthened by the words of Hezekiah king of Judah.

Observation: We get so overwhelmed with our daily battles that we forget we don’t have to fight them alone. God will help us fight but we need to call on Him to help us. When we see our battles knowing that the Lord is on our side they seem small compared to what God has in store for us. God is always there and desires to be part of our lives and wants to guide us through this life even the battles we seem to loose from time to time has a meaning and if we search with our hearts knowing God cares and loves us there is always a valuable lesson to learn.

Application: I need to stop trying to fight the battles on my own strength, because I don’t have any. My focus is on me and not my Lord and I need to be focused on Him to make it through this life victoriously. I need to humble myself like the kings and prophets of old and give it to God bowing to His authority and allow Him to guide and fight for me.

Prayer: My Lord I am conquered without you. I’m weak in mind and spirit and need your strength and guidance to get through each day. Even now I’m hurting physically and I’m mentally defeated. Strengthen me and get me through that my eyes would be open to your will and give me victory this day.
