Scripture: 2 Kings 6: 24-27, Psalm 84:6
Notes: God promises that through our trials and tribulations He will be there with us. When you go through the valley it is a place where God wants to honor himself and destroy your enemies and whatever it is that is attacking you. Note David and Goliath. The only thing that can paralyze you is fear. David was full of faith and faith moved him to move into the valley and God brought a giant down. The God we serve is a God of the mountains and the valleys too.
A famine had besieged Samaria. The city gates were shut. No one could go in and no one could go out. In 1 Kings 20, Benhadad was defeated and he came back believing that God was a god of the mountain only, so he decided to wage war in the valley. God has chosen to destroy your enemies in the valley that you are going through. Sometimes we have to stop being polite and shout some Holy Ghost shouting to bring down Jericho walls. Give God full control of your situation. Don’t get gentle with God. How long will we allow Satan to take over what we have?
It’s time to declare that Jesus is Lord. We have to make a move, rather than to stay in the same place. David made a move and spoke by faith to that giant. “You are coming down today.” It’s time to declare by faith that giants in your life are coming down. No matter what the situation God can turn your situation around within 24 hours. Joseph went from prison to prime minister within that time frame. God is a god of miracles. He is a way maker and a provider.
Nothing gets worse than mothers boiling their babies. The king called the prophet and the word of God was spoken. Faith must be declared. We have to speak what we believe. The angels hearken to the voice of His word. You cannot activate the movement of angels without speaking the word. Someone has to voice their faith so angels can hearken to His word and act on your behalf.
Sometimes you have to have holy anger. You have to tell the devil that he can’t have your family, your home, your peace. No matter what the situation thought the vision delays it will surely come to pass. Keep on holding on. God told Moses that I am that I am and He is whatever we need Him to be. Just like the Hebrew boys knew that God would deliver them, we know to expect deliverance and if it doesn’t come we will still be willing to sacrifice our lives.
Sometimes we forget to pray and sometimes we forget we are Christians. But we are God’s property and He has got things under control. You have to believe God and put angels in charge where you live and God will protect you. Men have failed us many times and so we put it on God and so we think God is also like that, but God is not a man that He should lie. He cannot lie. When He speaks something it is. Whatever you are going through He is God of your situation. Only believe. Don’t let unbelief steal what God has for you in your life.
God changed Samaria’s situation and He can change yours.
