DAILY?READINGS: 2 Samuel 13; Zephaniah 1; Galatians 1
O our God, wilt thou not judge them? For we have no might against this great company that cometh against us; neither know we what to do: but our eyes are upon thee. 2 Chronicles 20:12
These words were the conclusion of King Jehoshaphat’s public prayer on behalf of the nation. They were facing a formidable foe and in their great need and time of crisis, they did the right thing and sought the Lord. In their helplessness He was their hopefulness. Their faith was rewarded as God replied, “Fear not, nor be dismayed…for the Lord will be with you” (v. 17). He has NOT changed! —Pete Smith
When the storm is raging round thee,
Call on Me in humble prayer,
I will fold My arms about thee,
Guard thee with the tenderest care.
