THE VICTORY IS THE LORD'S
II KINGS 19: 19 - 37
(PAGE 583 COME ALIVE BIBLE)
JESUS CHRIST warned there would be "wars and rumors of war."

new Hitler inspired holocaust was the primary purpose. It was to
save lives. By God's grace, it worked.

a few such instances is worthy.

army posed an intimidating threat to God's people. The outcome
of the pending battle was very questionable.
Isaiah and others had prayed for God's guidance and blessings.
Through His prophet Isaiah, the Lord told the King of Israel,
Hezekiah, they would prevail. The reason is summed up in the
expression, "They were dismayed and confounded..." (II Kings
19:26).
God has once again confounded and caused a great army to be
dismayed. Note the meaning of the words.
To "dismay" means to cause to quit and give up.
To "confound" means to throw into confusion or disorder; to put
to shame or bring to ruin.
Thank God for past presidents and military advisors who saw to
it that we had superior military hardware. We should ...
