So now, O Lord our God, save us, please from his hands that all the kingdoms of the earth may know that you, O Lord, are God alone. 2 Kings 19:19
Please read this whole passage for context. 2 Kings 19:19-36
If we truly love God, this prayer of Hezekiah is a good example for us. Hezekiah wanted God to be honored. He wanted the Lord to prove and accomplish his purposes. Moses and David also showed this kind of example of prayer. We also must show this kind of faith in our prayers. We must boldly identify with God and his purposes. We should uphold his reputation. and honor. Faith that moves mountains contain a lot of prayer and trust in God. This also can include many people praying over the situation.
Judah’s miraculous rescue from the Assyrians is a redemptive moment in the old testament history. The most powerful nation went against a little nation of Judah. When things seemed impossible, God came to the rescue. Their faith in God moved an impossible mountain.
Our God is still the same God from the Old Testament. When we are focused on God and his purposes, he will still come and rescue us. We also should take all things in our life to him in prayer. We need to trust him in all areas of our lives and know that he will rescue us.
How often do you take your concerns to God?
Do you trust him to protect you? To rescue?
Dear Heavenly Father,
Thank you for being our rescuer. I pray that we will keep our focus on you. I pray that we will bring all our worries and concerns to you. I pray that our faith will grow stronger and stronger every day.
In Jesus Name
Amen
