May the Lord answer you in the day of trouble.

Shabbat Shalom from Kent, London.

May the Lord answer you in the day of trouble.

2 Ch18 chapter is full of thrilling incidents and actions. When we're talking about prophets or prophecies, it's more important to focus on what the Lord is telling us than who's saying it. This is the most important thing.

Ahab and Jehoshaphat intended to confront Ramouth-gilead, the Arameans (Syrians). Micaiah, the son of Imla, contested the plan and challenged several of Ahab's false prophets, including Zedekiah, the son of Chenaanah. Ahab held reservations about Micaiah because he rarely spoke favorably of him. However, this does not imply that Micaiah's statements were inaccurate or incorrect. The question remains: did his words originate from the Lord or not?

The deceptive spirit was given in the mouth of those false prophets. Micaiah revealed them, but no one believed him. The prophets mocked Micaiah. Both kings proceeded to the battle. The king of Aram focused and attacked Ahab, who was wounded and departed from the battle. The battle raged on that day, and Ahab remained propped up in his chariot facing the Arameans until dusk. Sadly, he passed away at sunset.

However Jehoshaphat called out for God's help when enemies were chasing, The Lord helped him by diverting them away from him and reached Jerusalem safely. Then the King Jehoshaphat reformed much more things to please God.

Ps 20:1  says that May the Lord answer you in the day of trouble. May the Name of the God of Jacob Set you securely on high and defend you in the battle.

When life gets tough, let's hit our knees and Pray. Remember, our God is like, super powerful. He's way bigger than any of our problems or enemies. So, let's Pray and ask Him to hook us up with what we need and Praise Him for keeping us safe.

‭Psalms 20:7] Some trust in chariots and some in horses, But we will remember and trust in the name of the Lord our God. In Jesus Name, Amen.

Peace be upon Israel and Us. 🙏🙏🙏
Have a Blessed weekend!!!
In His Grip..

At the altar, our destiny is altered

At the altar, our destiny is altered... Reference-  Job 37:23-24 MSG “Mighty God! Far beyond our reach!     Unsurpassable in Power and Justice!     It’s unthinkable that HE would treat anyone unfairly. So bow to HIM in deep reverence, one and all!     If you’re wise, you’ll most certainly worship HIM.” God is unfolding His story in His own way. The Sovereign and Supreme Ruler is in control of everyone, everything, and everywhere, and the accuser must seek His permission before acting against us. He sees us as His own, and we belong to Him just as He belongs to us. As Job said, God can do all things, and no purpose of His can be stopped (42:2). The Just and Righteous Judge – Our God is fundamentally just, and it’s unthinkable that He would treat anyone unfairly. His rule and governance are righteous, even if at times our eyes, ears, and hearts may not fully understand. The source of all wisdom and revelation is God , whose knowledge is complete unlike ...

God's way is the Power

God's way is God's Power Reference- 1 Cor 4:20 MSG -  God’s Way is not a matter of mere talk; it’s an empowered life!! In 1 Corinthians, Paul speaks to a divided church where some were proud, eloquent, and believed they were spiritually superior because of their words and wisdom. He contrasts this human pride with the true power of God, shown in the cross, in changed lives, and in the work of the Spirit, the God's Power. It’s an empowered life—God’s ways are the true power, not found in mere talk, endless words, idle chatter, or impressive responses built on layers of discussion. It is a life empowered by the power of His Spirit, the presence of the Holy Spirit. It is power that breaks chains, sets us free, anoints us, and creates new opportunities, fresh paths, flourishing streams, divine strategies, abundant life, and limitless expansion. Paul didn’t ask the Corinthians to be practical . It’s not about having everything, but about having Him alongside others. That’s why h...

Efforts that counts...

Efforts that counts... Reference- 2 Ch 17  Context: King Jehoshaphat was a seeker and follower of the God of his father and was obedient to HIM; he wasn’t like Israel (at that time, Ahab was ruling Israel). And God secured the kingdom under his rule, gave him a firm grip on it. And everyone in Judah showed their appreciation by bringing gifts. Jehoshaphat ended up very rich and much honoured. Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone - Apostle James in 2:17 Efforts that showed his intention to Seek and Keep Him: Sticking to the ways of Asa (his godly father). Rejecting Baal — non-conformity to the ungodly culture. Removing high places and Asherah poles. This is personal reformation — the king putting his own house in order spiritually. Efforts that enabled others to Seek and Keep Him: Building defences — not just military, but spiritual covering. Sending teachers throughout Judah with the “Book of the Revelation of God” (likely the Torah or existing OT Scriptures). ...
