“Do
not be afraid because of the words you have heard” (2 Kings 19:6). Help
us, Lord, to listen to Your Word. When the world’s voice seems to be so
loud, help us to hear Your voice. Help us to hear Your Word of
encouragement: !The zeal of the Lord will do this” (2 Kings 19:31). When
fear threatens to overwhelm us, help us to remember that You are “able”
(Daniel 3:17) – “able to help those who are tempted” (Hebrews 2:18),
“able to provide us with every blessing in abundance” (2 Corinthians
9:8), “able to do far more abundantly than all we ask or think”
(Ephesians 3:20).
By Your grace, Lord, You call us to be Your soldiers and servants. Help us not to be "fearful and fainthearted" (Deuteronomy 19:19). Help us to be "good soldiers of Jesus Christ" (2 Timothy 2:3). When we hear your challenging question: "Who is on the Lord's side?", may we give our committed answer: "By Thy call of mercy, by Thy grace divine, we are on the Lord's side; Saviour, we are Thine."
