Scripture 2 Chronicles 32: 7-8

All throughout the old testament we read of battles occurring with armies of all different sizes. The outcome of the battle usually depended on how large and experienced your army was in comparison to the other one. This was not the case here. Even though the enemy that was coming against them was probably strong, Hezekiah assured the people that they would win the battle. He told them to be strong and courageous and not to be afraid or dismayed. He told them that even though there was a great multitude with their enemies, they had more on their side helping them fight.

What made him so sure that they would win? Because the one on their side never ever loses. They had God on their side fighting for them. Make no wonder Hezekiah was so sure they would win. He knew no one could fight against God and win, so he knew that as long as God was on their side they would be safe. We are not talking about just any god here. We are talking about the One and Only True God. The one who spoke this world into existence and breathed into man and man became a living soul.

There is absolutely no one who can defeat God. If you are born again today, He is also on your side, fighting for you. What a wonderful assurance is ours today. If you are faced with the enemy of your soul, don’t fear. The one on your side is greater than whoever it is that comes against you. Trust Him completely today and you will have no need to fear anyone or anything.




When God is on your side
You’ll have no need to fear
He’ll help fight your enemy
For He is always near
