When we are in trouble, to whom do we turn? Our neighbors, our friends, our spouses cannot possibly help when we have no strength to go one more step. So who can rely on? That's right, God! As Asa realized that God is there to give him the strength that he needed when he was outnumbered in battle, so should we rely on Him.
And Asa cried unto the Lord his God, and said, Lord, it is nothing with thee to help, rather with many, or with them that have no power: help us, O Lord our God; for we rest on thee, and in thy name we go against this multitude. O Lord, thou art our God; let no man prevail against thee.
II Chronicles 14:11
Note that Asa declared that God is so great and that He has so much power over everything: "Lord, it is nothing with thee to help, rather with many, or with them that have no power". All that he had to do was to rest in Him: "for we rest on thee, and in thy name we go against this multitude". In other words, as long as we are doing God's will, we need only call on Him, and He will give us strength.
Amen!
Thank you for joining me this morning. May God bless and keep you and yours always!
