King Hezekiah says, If we pray HE will do greater things

 Shabbat Shalom from Kent, London - 07Mar2025

We are much more Powerful because the Lord Our God Fights on Our side.

Reference Scripture: 2 Ch 32:2-8/ 2Kg 18/ Is 36:1-22 

This is not ordinary times, but more or less, it's similar situation mentioned in 2 Ch 32. The Assyrian king Sennacherib launched a campaign against the the King of Judah Hezekiah, captured cities, sieged Jerusalem sent letters via officials to intimidate the ruling king and his people. He mocked King Hezekiah's trust in God, claiming no god had ever saved other nations from Assyria's might!

First response from the King of Judah recorded in 2 Kg 18:13-37, he agreed to pay 300 talents silver and 30 talents of gold to withdraw the fight. He was preparing to pay this price by collecting the resources across all places, however the enemy king decided to threaten and mock and insult the people by sending messengers to deliver information to all people in Hebrew to who sit on the wall, highways and byways. They used shameful words and made fun of the Lord. They talked about the LORD as if he were nothing but an ordinary god or an idol that someone had made. 

First fortified the cities, second sent insulting messages, third mocked the trust of the people in the Lord and lastly claiming no god any nation has ever been able to stand up to Assyria!

Now Hezekiah decided not to surrender and sought The Lord's help, went to the temple, spread out the blasphemous letter before God, Prayed earnestly for deliverance. He has collaborated with the Prophet Isaiah asked for God's help. they received the assurance of God's protection. I can confirm, Their faith and unceasing prayer gained God's attention. The answer came from the Lord that the enemies will not enter Jerusalem- This is the word to us this month, in this season that schemes of the enemies will not enter into our church, families. 

The King Hezekiah encouraged the people before and after prayer, to be strong, courageous, determined and confident for THERE IS A GREATER ONE WITH US THAT WITH ASSYRIANS. They have the arm of the flesh but with us is the LORD OUR GOD TO HELP US AND FIGHT OUR BATTLES.

That same night 185000 soldiers died, because the Lord sent one angel to destroy the complete camp, which forces Sennacherib to go back to Nineveh, later assassinated by one of his own sons while he was in his god's temple. The End. Terrified conclusion as the battle owned by YHWH. 

In this month, during this Lent season, There is no reason to be afraid for any threats, challenges, shortfalls, sickness, dryness, famines, distractions, doubts and difficulties. For the ONE with us is Greater, Stronger, more than enough to support, help us. There are more on our Side, God arranged fires of horses, chariots to cover our territories. If God is for us who can be against us? HE is with us wherever we go. HE will never leave us not forsake us. HE will surely help us, supply our needs according to His righteous in this month/ season. The Lord is in our side, He will fight for us. We just need to be still, make a progress and pass through by His Grace. Greater is He who is in us than he who is in the world. Amen. Hallelujah.

Lets happily PRAY and journey with ADONAI, as David did in Ps 21:2, The LORD is my Light and My Salvation who shall I fear? The Lord is my Stronghold of my Life, My Family, My Church in Jesus Name, Amen!

Peace be Upon the State of the Israel and us.
Shalom. Have a Great weekend.
In His Grip
