Ever feel like you’re fighting in some kind of battle and the odds are 2 to 1?
Whether in your health, at work, office politics, financially or even in your marriage or relationship?
In the Bible, King Asa had an army of 580,000. BUT an army of 1,000,000 came after them. That’s a bad day no matter how you try to look at it.
It would’ve been a SURE slaughter….but Asa CRIED OUT to God.
“…LORD, it is nothing for You to help, whether with many or with those who have no power…Help us, O LORD our God, for we rest on You, and in Your name we go against this multitude.” 2 Chronicles 14:11 NKJV
Unfair Advantage
King Asa knew that all things were possible WITH GOD no matter what the circumstances looked like!
And get this, God didn’t JUST defeat his enemy; they were DESTROYED and could not recover themselves.
They weren’t coming back…EVER! No second round of chemo. No bankruptcy haunting your credit. No ‘divorced’ stamped across your forehead. The enemy wasn’t defeated, they were disintegrated.
And It Gets Better
Not only did they WIN the battle, but they came out with much MORE than they went in with.
Sometimes in the midst of the fight, or when we see the fight coming – we get surviving the fight on our mind. When God has THRIVING through the fight in His mind!
After the battle they spoiled all of the cities and there was a LOT of stuff to take. They left in ABUNDANCE! 🙂 They came out of the fight with a lot more than they went into it with!
And that’s what I believe for US today.
• Financial ruin will be turned into huge financial GAINS!
• Attacks on our health will become testimonies of divine HEALING!
• Broken relationships will not only be RESTORED, but STRENGTHENED and MULTIPLIED!
Prayer for Today
“God, we thank you that we’re coming out of this good fight with SO MUCH more than we went in with. Thank you that you are on our side in this battle and we are coming out on the victory side! Lord, we don’t look at the circumstances. We look to YOU and KNOW that You’ll take care of the circumstances.”
God thank you for fighting the fight for me! Love you.
