2 Chronicles 14-15, Proverbs 30:1-17, Matthew 12:12-50
What God said to me – After Asa became king of Judah they had ten years of peace. So, what did they do during this time of peace? They went through the land and removed all the idols and cleaned it up. They restored their cities and fortified them. Then they were attacked. The Ethiopians came with an army of a million men. What was the response of Asa and the people? They prayed and put their trust in Me and then they fought the battle. So, follow their example. Use the times of peace in your life to dig deep. Root out the sin in your life and fortify and strengthen your heart and faith by studying My word and spending much time with Me. Battles are coming – they come into everyone’s life – so don’t let down and coast in your spiritual walk. Use this time to prepare and to strengthen and to build up your heart and faith so you are ready when the battle comes.
