Morning with Ebenezer

THOSE WHO ARE WITH US

“Don’t be afraid,” the prophet answered. “Those who are with us are more than those who are with them.”

And Elisha prayed, “Open his eyes, Lord, so that he may see.” Then the Lord opened the servant’s eyes, and he looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.

2 Kings 6:16-17 NIV

There are times in life which you may find yourself alone even though you are living among many people. These kind of feelings happen to each one of us, some of us we face fear which we never experienced before during these hours. Here is were despair and the state of loosing hope for tomorrow kicks inside of us by force.

Gehazi the servant of Elisha feared when he saw an army of Aram with horses and chariots surrounded their city of Dothan. These people wanted to capture prophet Elisha,because he was telling the king of Israel about what the king of Aremeans had in mind against the king of Israel. Elisha said to Gehazi, "Don't be afraid,'' those who are with us are more than those who are with them.

Then Elisha prayed that the Lord may open his eyes, so that he may see. Then the Lord opened the servant's eyes, and he looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha. In those darkest nights, lonely hours of life there is still hope for you that you are not alone.

This morning, God wants you to know that those who are with you are more than those that are with them. God wants you to know that in those long weeping nights, in the middle of those difficult questions of life, you are not alone. Do not fear, there is no mountain high to climb with the Lord, there is no valley low that the Lord can't lift you up; and there is no river wide which the Lord can't help you to cross.

If God is for us, who will be against us? If those who are with us are more than those with them, who can defeat us? Start your day by knowing Jesus the Son of God together with the Host of Angels in heaven are for you! And no devil in hell will be able to start against you.
