SPREAD YOUR TROUBLES OUT BEFORE THE LORD
When King Sennacherib sent a letter threatening Jerusalem, King Hezekiah put on burlap, went up to the Temple, and spread the letter out on the floor for the Lord to consider. God heard his prayer and defended him. What threat do you fear today? Have you brought it to the Lord? Spread your trouble out before God. Let Him handle it.
PRAYER: Dear Father, You are the same today as You were when You defended Hezekiah and Jerusalem from their enemies. Forgive us for trying to face our troubles alone. We spread them out before You now. We read them out to You and leave them with You. Take that which causes us to fear and replace it with courage, take our weakness and give us strength. For You are our Defender. We walk in Your grace and power. We love You, Lord. In Jesus’ name, amen.
