When the forces are lacking

Faustino de Jesús Zamora Vargas

SUMMARY: Hezekiah faced a siege by the Assyrian army, but he prayed to God and trusted in His power. God delivered the people from their enemies. Christians may also face spiritual battles, but they should trust in God and His promises of restoration. We should not rely on our own strength, but on the supernatural provision of God through Jesus Christ. Turning to God in times of weakness brings joy and peace.

Jerusalem besieged. Sennacherib, king of Assyria (2 Chronicles 32) trying to take the city with his powerful army. The people scared. Fear weakens the strength and makes the heart fail. Faced with the uncertainty of what is about to happen, doubts arise. God leads you into the deserts of life to test faith and discover the machinations of the heart. Sennacherib mocked the God of Hezekiah "... the God of Hezekiah will not deliver His people from my hand." (2 Chron 32.17)

The King of Judah harangued the people: “Be strong and courageous; do not fear or be dismayed because of the king of Assyria, nor because of all the multitude that is with him, for he who is with us is more powerful than he who is with him ”(2 Chr 32.7). Hezekiah, accompanied by the prophet Isaiah, cried out to the Lord of Hosts and an angel of the Lord delivered the people from the invaders. The Bible says that Hezekiah prospered in everything he did (2 Chr 32.30).
