*RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DAILY DEVOTIONAL* *THROUGH HIM, WE ALWAYS PREVAIL* *Wednesday, June 18th* *Pastor Chris* _*📖And Asa cried unto the LORD his God, and said…help us, O LORD our God; for we rest on thee, and in thy name we go against this multitude. O LORD, thou art our God; let not man prevail against thee (2 Chronicles 14:11).*_ There’s a remarkable story of war in the days of Asa, king of Judah. The Bible tells us in 2 Chronicles 14:9 that Zerah the Ethiopian came against Judah with an army of a million men and three hundred chariots. That was an overwhelming force. But Asa didn’t cower in fear; instead, he went out to face them, setting the battle in array in the valley of Zephathah at Mareshah. Then Asa did something inspiring; he cried unto the Lord his God for help! Though vastly outnumbered, he knew he needed a miracle, and his trust was in the Lord. He recognized that numbers meant nothing to God. His confidence was in the Name of the Lord. He said, _*"...in thy name we go against this multitude. O LORD, thou art our God; let not man prevail against thee"*_ (2 Chronicles 14:11). What an audacity of faith! Asa understood that life is controlled from the spiritual realm, so, he looked beyond the physical advantage of the enemy and saw the Lord as his help. This is the mindset you must have at all times. No matter the opposition, the power, influence or wickedness of the adversary; greater is He that is in you than Satan and his cohorts put together. They may appear formidable, but they are weak, and you’re strong. Their words are empty, but yours are full of divine authority. The result of Asa’s prayer was extraordinary. The Bible says, _*"...the LORD smote the Ethiopians before Asa, and before Judah; and the Ethiopians fled"*_ (2 Chronicles 14:12). They fled despite their overwhelming numbers, and Asa and his men pursued them all the way to Gerar, utterly overthrowing them. The Bible says they could not recover themselves because they were destroyed before the Lord and His host. Asa and the people of Judah carried away great spoils (2 Chronicles 14:13). The victory was total; read 2 Chronicles 14:14-15. The fear of the Lord fell upon their enemies, and Judah prospered. Our God is great. So, when you face challenges, don’t be moved. Focus on Him. He is your help, and through Him, you always prevail. Hallelujah! *PRAYER* *Dear Father, you’re my strength and my victory. I stand firm in faith, declaring your Word, knowing that all power belongs to you. Thank you for always causing me to triumph in Christ, in Jesus' Name. Amen.* *FURTHER STUDY📖=>* *||* *2 Corinthians 2:14* Now thanks [be] unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place. *||* *||* *Romans 8:37* Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. *||* *||* *2 Chronicles 14:13-15* And Asa and the people that [were] with him pursued them unto Gerar: and the Ethiopians were overthrown, that they could not recover themselves; for they were destroyed before the LORD, and before his host; and they carried away very much spoil. 14 And they smote all the cities round about Gerar; for the fear of the LORD came upon them: and they spoiled all the cities; for there was exceeding much spoil in them. 15 They smote also the tents of cattle, and carried away sheep and camels in abundance, and returned to Jerusalem. *||* IF YOU ARE NOT YET BORN AGAIN, KINDLY SAY THIS PRAYER TO RECEIVE SALVATION NOW!🤲=> https://bit.ly/3XlaiwZ Sponsor Rhapsody of Realities today and help spread the Gospel to those who need it most.
