I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO BUT MY EYES ARE ON YOU
There
is a story in the book of 2 Chronicles chapter 20 about the King of
Judah named King Jehoshaphat. He received a report that there was an
army that was coming to wage war against him. As he and the people of
Judah and Jerusalem came before the Lord, he said to the Lord, "Power
and might are in your hand, and no one can withstand you". He reminded
the Lord how He drove out the inhabitants of the land before his people
Israel.
He
said; "We will stand in your presence before this temple that bears
your name and will cry out to you in our distress, and you will hear us
and save us." He went on to say "For we have no power against this great multitude that is coming against us; nor do we know what to do, but our eyes are upon You.”
The Holy Spirit is showing me that many of you are traumatized over
the coronavirus pandemic. Fear has gripped your hearts and you are
focusing on this demonic intrusion rather than focusing on Jesus who is
the King of King and Lord of Lords. Although you believe in your heart
that Jesus is able to eradicate this virus, you are crying out in the
same way that King Jehoshaphat did saying that you don't know what to do
as you see the armies of the enemy rising up against you from every
side. In the natural this pandemic seems impossible to control but the
Lord created the heavens and the earth and I believe that when this
virus is gone we are going to experience a massive revival across the
globe. .
King
Jehoshaphat knew that he was not able to win this battle in his own
strength. As this vast army was coming to destroy them, he inquired of
the Lord through prayer and the Lord responded. The Spirit of the Lord
came upon Jahaziel and he prophesied; "This is what the Lord says: 'Do not be afraid or discouraged because of this vast army. For the battle is not yours, but God's. He went on to say: You
will not have to fight this battle. Take up your positions; stand firm
and see the deliverance the Lord will give you, Judah and Jerusalem. Do
not be afraid; do not be discouraged. Go out to face them tomorrow, and
the Lord will be with you.'"
The scripture goes on to say, the next morning Jehoshaphat
said to the people: Believe in the Lord your God, and you shall be
established; believe His prophets, and you shall prosper. "He
then appointed men to sing to the Lord and to praise Him for the
splendor of His holiness as they went out at the head of the army,
saying: Give thanks to the Lord, for His love endures forever.
As they began to sing and praise, the Lord set ambushes against their
enemy, and they even turned against one another. Every one of them was
destroyed and not one escaped.
When
Jehoshaphat and his people came to take away their spoil, they found
among them an abundance of valuables on the dead bodies, and precious
jewelry, which they stripped off for themselves, more than they could
carry away; and they were three days gathering the spoil because there
was so much. The fear of God fell on all the kingdoms of those countries
when they heard that the Lord had fought against the enemies of Israel.
The Lord says; do not be afraid, but
trust Me through it all. As you do, you will also see your enemies
defeated. The powers of darkness will not overtake you, and this life
threatening disease will not take your life. The financial situations
that you are facing will not deplete you. As you trust in Me, you will
come out victorious on every side.You
will regain the territory that has been stolen from you, as you simply
trust Me. There is no need to fight in the natural but allow Me to fight
for you as you lift up your voice in praise. I am the God of
restoration and I will restore everything that has been stolen. As you
take up your petitions and stand firm, you will also experience My
victory and deliverance, says the Lord.
2 Chronicles 20:12
O
our God, will You not judge them? For we have no power against this
great multitude that is coming against us; nor do we know what to do,
but our eyes are upon You."
2 Chronicles 20:17
You
will not need to fight in this battle. Position yourselves, stand still
and see the salvation of the Lord, who is with you, O Judah and
Jerusalem!' Do not fear or be dismayed; tomorrow go out against them,
for the Lord is with you."
2 Chronicles 20:27
Then
they returned, every man of Judah and Jerusalem, with Jehoshaphat in
front of them, to go back to Jerusalem with joy, for the Lord had made
them rejoice over their enemies.
Praise The Lord
