II Chronicles 20:11-13

11. Behold, I say, how they reward us, to come to cast us out of thy possession, which thou hast given us to inherit. 12. O our God, wilt thou not judge them? for we have no might against this great company that cometh against us; neither know we what to do: but our eyes are upon thee. 13. And all Judah stood before the LORD, with their little ones, their wives, and their children.”

Israel has come to a place where they don’t know what to do, though its a very uncomfortable time, its the best place they could be as God’s people. God is not interested in you trying to figure everything out yourself, but He is interested in you trusting Him. There is a great enemy rising against Judah and though they are scared, they respond with a heart that God wants every believer to have; Verse twelve: “but our eyes are upon thee.” What difficulty are you facing today? As believers, its very easy to get discouraged when you get put into a situation you don’t like, but remember God is in control of all. Could it be that God is trying to strengthen your faith? Have you truly set your eyes upon Him? As you continue to read II Chronicles 20 you will find that God spoke to Judah through a man by the name of Jahaziel. Verse fifteen of the same chapter, he says; “…..Be not afraid nor dismayed by reason of this great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God’s.” God told Judah to stand still and do nothing. The enemy was actually defeated by other enemies. Judah didn’t have to do a thing and they walked away from a battle they never fought. God even blessed them abundantly with material goods. Remember that every battle is God’s battle. If you don’t read your Bible to find God’s answers, you will never be able to trust God through your situation. Set your eyes upon Him and let the Word of God tell you how to handle your difficult situation!
