BE STRONG & COURAGEOUS

Saints of God Most High, hear God’s word for you today:

Be strong! Take courage! Don’t be afraid or distressed on account of the king of Ashur or all the horde he brings with him. For the One with us is greater than the one with him…….” (2 Chronicles 32:7-8).

Be strong and courageous. Be not afraid or dismayed before the king of Assyria and all the horde that is with him, for there is Adonai Yahweh with us Who is greater than all those with him. With him is an arm of flesh, but with us is the Lord our God, Adonai Yahweh to help us and to fight our battles. And the people relied on the words of Hezekiah king of Judah.

King Hezekiah had to encourage his fearful people who were surrounded by hordes of the Assyrian army who had challenged the God they believed in. When Hezekiah and Isaiah cried to the Lord, God sent an angel who cut off all the mighty warriors of the Assyrian army and the enemy king had to return with a shamed face. Raise your eyes and see the Lord. Look unto Him and see that the “battle is not yours, but God’s.”

Always remember the Lord is with you. To Him belongs your life and everything you own.
When yielded to Him the worst situation will turn to victory. He will strengthen your heart and your life.

He will refresh you with the fountain of His life and His presence when you turn your discouragement and look at Him.

He wants you to take your eyes off that troubling situation before you and look at Him. See Him demonstrate His power in our life. He wants you to know that He is Jehovah Jireh, the One Who provides where there is no source.

He is Jehovah Ropheka, the One Who heals what man has given up on. He is Jehovah Shammah, the One Who is and always will be there for you at all times when everyone deserts you.

He is Jehovah Shalom, the One Who gives you His peace even in the midst of the storm.
He is your Protector. He is your Guide.
He is your Counsellor. He is your closest Friend.
He is your Comforter who comforts every hurt and pain in your life.

So lift up your eyes unto the hills from whence your help comes. Lift up your eyes to the One Who can restore much more than you can ever imagine in your life. Beloved, say to yourself, “The Lord God is my help and support. He will refresh me and strengthen me. He will lift me up and set me on solid ground in Jesus’ mighty name, Amen!”

Somebody shout, “GLORY TO GOD MOST HIGH!

Shalom and good morning.

Dr. Daniel O. C.
