Reading: 2 Chronicles 14                                            Optional Reading: 2 Chronicles 12, 13, 15, 16
“11 Then Asa called to the LORD his God and said, “LORD, there is no one like you to help the powerless against the mighty. Help us, LORD our God, for we rely on you, and in your name, we have come against this vast army. LORD, you are our God; do not let mere mortals prevail against you.” [2 Chronicles 14:11 NIV]
We have no power in ourselves to please God, make Him listen, gain his blessings, change ourselves, become more like Jesus, win a lasting victory.
Did you know that you are powerless? Not one of us can do anything without Jesus. Oh sure, we might make a soccer team, or get good grades at school. We might even catch a bass while fishing. But, anything that is good and lasts must come from Jesus.
King Asa prayed before he went out to fight. He knew God had to accomplish the victory. Without God’s help, he could do nothing.
Call on God always to be with you. He can give you the power to succeed.
Lord, I ask you always to be with me and lead me. Amen.
