He can be trusted. ( Titus 1 v 2 )
I read recently something by a man called John Sherrill ,he said that there where
two types of promises in the Bible ,one for feeding on which we receive strength
from, then there are those premises ,that help us fight our enemy, when we are
being attacked..I have just read 2 Chronicles 20,King Jehoshaphat and his country
are faced with a combined force of three nations.Defeat was stirring them in the
face,Jehoshaphat called the people together to fast and pray.He led the people in
prayer,one of the things he prayed was this.
( v12) O 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 upon you.
What a prayer that this king offered in front of all his people ,humility is a great thing
especially for a king, what an example to his subjects,and to us,Jesus said without me
you can do nothing ( John 15 v 5 ) .Then a Spirit filled man spoke a message from God
Do not be afraid or discouraged , because of this
vast army, for the battle is not yours, but Gods. ( v 15 )
What a wonderful promise from God ,and so it came to pass,God Himself defeated the
enemy.,the God who promised ,fulfilled His word, and was victorious over them.
Trust those exceeding great and precious promises
REMEMBER GOD CAN BE TRUSTED.
