God for us.

This morning I was reading in my devotions about how Hezekiah overcame the Assyrians army with the power of the Lord.  The story goes that the armies of the Assyrians were at the door of the city of Jerusalem.  They were threatening the city with destruction.  Hezekiah was outgunned and outmanned.  He had no place to go but to the Lord.  That is a great place to be.  When you have run out of your resources then the power God is able.  Hezekiah humbled himself and prayed and the Lord intervened and the end of the story is that an angel of the Lord killed 185,000 Assryian soldiers and they left in defeat.  The Lord got the glory and we see God at work.  I do not know what enemies you are facing but God is able.  No mountain, valley, trial, problem or temptation will overcome you when you trust in the Lord.  So trust the Lord today and get the victory.  It may involve like Hezekiah a little letting go of the pride but God will answer a humble and contrite heart.  Let that heart but yours.
