1 Corinthians 13:13
''And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.'' 1 Corinthians 13:13 (NIV)
''Some people came and told Jehoshaphat, 'A vast army is coming against you from Edom, from the other side of the Dead Sea. It is already in Hazezon Tamar' (that is, En Gedi).'' 2 Chronicles 20:2 (NIV)
When we feel overwhelmed
- We're flooded with fear
''Jehoshaphat was terrified by this news....'' Vs. 3a (NLT)
- We're flooded with anxiety
''We do not know what to do....'' Vs. 12b (NIV)
- We're flooded with fatigue
''For we have no power to face this vast army that is attacking us.''
Vs. 12a (NIV)
''He said, 'Listen, all you people of Judah and Jerusalem! Listen, King Jehoshaphat! This is what the LORD says: Do not be afraid! Don't be discouraged by this mighty army, for the battle is not yours, but God's. Tomorrow, march out against them. You will find them coming up through the ascent of Ziz at the end of the valley that opens into the wilderness of Jeruel. But you will not even need to fight. Take your positions; then stand still and watch the LORD's victory. He is with you, O people of Judah and Jerusalem. Do not be afraid or discouraged. Go out against them tomorrow, for the LORD is with you!''' 2 Chronicles 20:15-17 (NLT)
1. STOP FRETTING AND REMEMBER GOD IS FOR YOU.
''Do not be afraid or discouraged. Go out against them tomorrow, for the Lord is with you!'' Vs. 17b (NLT)
''If God is for us, who can be against us?'' Romans 8:31 (NIV)
2. STOP FEARING AND GIVE THE BATTLE OVER TO GOD.
''Do not be afraid! Don't be discouraged by this mighty army, for the battle is not yours but God's.'' Vs. 15b (NLT)
3. STOP FIGHTING AND POSITION YOURSELF FOR A MIRACLE.
- Faith is standing on God's promises when I don't see the answer.
- Faith is standing in prayer when I feel anxious and fearful.
