MFM Daily Devotional 7 April 2024 MESSAGE
Life is not all bed of roses. There are high and low times. When Sennacherib and his servants came with their fearful credentials to mock and fight Judah, Hezekiah was truly afraid. At first, fear gripped him seeing what Sennacherib had done to Samaria and other lands. He tried to appease the Assyrian King with pleas, silver and gold (2 Kings 18:14), but the enemy does not understand appeal. The only language the enemy understands is violence and aggression. So, do not try to negotiate with the enemy of your soul. Fight him and fight him hard.
The more you negotiate with him, the more you give him grounds to conquer you. Thank God Hezekiah quickly strengthened himself (2 Chronicles 32:5). If not, he would have renewed the bondage of the king he once rebelled against. Thank God he quickly turned to God to express his fears to Him. He collected the boastful letter of Sennacherib and spread it before the God of Israel and God heard him. God disgraced the enemy and he died by the sword of his loins.
READ MFM Daily Devotional 6 April 2024 – Lessons from the Life of Hezekiah (IV)
Beloved, where do you turn when the tides turn? Who do you go to first when the chips are down? Learn to go to God first. Let Him be your first and last point of call. Do not come to God when you have explored other options that are not working. Present your case and fears to your God. He said, “Come and let us reason together.” If you have to be left alone like Jacob to plead the cause of destiny with your maker, please do not hesitate. God still answers prayers.
Have you been mocked by evil medical reports, death threats, job termination, court case, rent eviction and so on? Spread it before the God of Israel today and watch Him vindicate you. He will turn the situation around for you and it shall turn to you for a testimony, in Jesus’ name.
