Rely On The Lord

May 16, 2023

“And Asa cried to the Lord his God, “O Lord, there is none like you to help, between the mighty and the weak. Help us, O Lord our God, for we rely on you, and in your name we have come against this multitude. O Lord, you are our God; let not man prevail against you.” 2 Chronicles 14:11 (ESV)

There are times in our lives when we will come against somethings that are too big for us to handle. In these moments we cannot rely on our own strength, intellect, or anything else to see us through, we must rely and trust in The Lord. When we are facing mountains too high for us to climb, we must rely on The Lord. When we are facing challenges too difficult for us to navigate through, we must rely on the Lord, because there is nothing that we face too big or mighty for Him. Judah found themselves faced with a challenge bigger than they were, and the king knew he could not face this battle alone, and he called on The Lord and said, O Lord, there is none like you to help, between the mighty and the weak. Help us, O Lord our God, for we rely on you, and in your name we have come against this multitude. O Lord, you are our God; let not man prevail against you. I encourage you today that when you are faced with challenges, hurdles, storms or trouble, that you call on the name of The Lord and rely on Him to see you through. You may not be able to rely on people, but you can rely on The Lord. The Lord is your help when you are weak and strong and He will carry you through every situation you face in your life. There is not a situation that I face in my life when I do not rely on The Lord to help me. I will always look to The Lord for my hope and my help and I know that He will give me strength to get me through. Since I will always rely on The Lord, I have no doubt, “It’s My Year To Get My Thing From My God!”

Prayer:

Lord thank you for being my help in every situation. Thank you for always being there when I call and for seeing me through it all. I Love You Lord. In Jesus Name Amen.
