HELP IS NOT FAR AWAY
2Ch 20:5-7 And Jehoshaphat stood in the congregation of Judah and Jerusalem, in the house of the LORD, before the new court, (6) And said, O LORD God of our fathers, are you not thou God in heaven? and do you not rule over all the kingdoms of the heathen? And in your hand is there not power and might, so that none is able to withstand you? (7) Are you not thou our God, who did drive out the inhabitants of this land before thy people Israel, and gave it to the seed of Abraham thy friend for ever?
1. King Jehoshaphat was at a crossroads in life. His kingdom was surrounded by a fearless and terrible army, and total destruction was imminent. He and his army were surrounded on every side and it seemed there was just no way of escape. Everything seemed to be against him. It seemed that he was in a hole with just no way out. He had won many battles, but now circumstances all told a story of no hope, no escape and fear.
2.With many questions in his heart he turned to God for help. The problem was far beyond human help. He realised there was nothing he, or his army could do to improve the situation. Outsized and outnumbered by the enemy and even his friends and family could not help him now. He needed God desperately and that was who he turned to.
3. Are you not God in charge of the universe? Is there anything you cannot do?. ” these two questions could probably summarize the questions that Jehosaphat asked.
It was not in unbelief that he asked these questions. These were rhetorical questions he didn’t need any answers, because he already had the answers. He Recognised God as his tower and refuge. In spite of what seemed to be all around him and insoite of uncertainty, he turned you God knowing Only God and He alone could deliver him out of his troubles. God delivered him and saved his Kingdom with a mighty hand.
4. Are you in a similar situation today where you desperately need the miraculous intervention of Almighty God.? Are you facing a challenge that only God could solve? Maybe you are sick and medicines and doctors cannot heal you. Maybe it’s a challenge where you cannot see a way out off and don’t have any answers.. Maybe you are facing financial problems, and no matter what you do, no matter how hard you try, money is not enough to pay your bills, and when you have bought the food to feed you and the children, there is just little or nothing left. You have tried all that you could, but it just won’t resolve. Whatever you are facing, Depression, Loneliness, rebellious children, frustrations, Whatever it is, There is a way out.
Jehoshaphat faced what seemed like a no win situation. But he turned to God in Faith. He knew that nothing was impossible to God and he knew from past experience God delivered him and his people in times of trouble.
He reminds God * Are you not God in charge of the universe? Is there anything you cannot do?. He knew God would do something to help them.
I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT HELP IS NOT FAR AWAY.
Jer 32:27 Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me? It really does not matter how bad the situation seems, or how desperate you may feel. It does not matter how serious or urgent your needs are. Truly it should not cause you to worry a single day longer. *The Lord God is strong enough to cause a change, and turn all things round for your good.
Rom 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. Anything you experience that is contrary to Gods will, His word, and his promises is not of God. It is of the devil.
If you like Jehoshaphat trust Gods ability, he will turn around every negative situation just for you, your family and loved ones.
Rom 8:31-37. What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?
Isa 54:17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper. This is Gods absolute promise to you right now. He will turn your enemy against himself. Poverty shall be destroyed in your life and that of your family. Sickness and disease shall be destroyed in you and any of your family. Bondages, Chains that bind you shall be broken. Why should you believe what I am saying to you today? It is God that speaks to you, it is God that has promised he will do all this and more!
Turn to God with confidence today. He will not fail you. He cannot fail!
Prayer.

Touch their hearts today with your word. As they turn you today, grant them comfort in knowing you are turning all things round for their good. That You Lord God will not allow anything to hurt or bring them down.
You have made them bigger that their problems lord. They are bigger than any mountain they may be facing. You are God and you are meeting their needs. They will have so many blessings, that they will bless others. Father Comfort you your people today with these words. In Jesus name I ask.
