Ignoring God’s Warning Is Tantamount to Foolishness

2Chro. 16:7-10

King Asa was reprimanded by God in this passage because he relied on the king of Syria, rather than relying on the Lord his God. Asa was reminded “Were the Ethiopians and the Lubim not a huge army with very many chariots and horsemen? Yet, because you relied on the Lord, He delivered them into your hand. For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is loyal to Him. In this you have done foolishly; therefore from now on you shall have wars.”  If you find yourself in a similar condition, all you need do is to act like David who remembered God helping him to kill the lions and bears that chased after his sheep, believing that same God will help him conquer the Goliath which God did. Lay hold onto your previous testimonies because they can help you win bigger testimonies in the future.

Point of Emphasis:   Trust and obey God; this is the key to a victorious life

Prayer Point:            O Lord of hosts deliver me from visible and invisible battles.
