TOPIC: KEEP YOUR EYES
ON THE LORD
TEXT: "…Neither know we what to do: but our
eyes are upon thee "(2 Chronicles 20:12).
The famous story of
King Jehoshaphat who was attacked by an army that outnumbered him gives us a
constant reminder that we cannot put our
eyes on natural solutions
in tough situations (see 2 Chron. 20). Jehoshaphat was attacked by the Ammonites,
whose army was much larger than his own.
He immediately knew he didn’t have the
military might to retaliate. It looked like certain
death, and he didn’t
have anywhere to turn other than to rely solely upon the Lord.
Everyone has faced
something challenging when they simply didn’t know where to turn. Every option
seemed like no option at all. While we should rely on the Lord in all things,
these are times when we need an unwavering confidence. The Bible says that
Jehoshaphat and all of Judah stood before the Lord. They didn’t do anything else
but pray because there was no point in doing anything else! They stood before
the Lord and said,
“Lord, we don’t know what to do, but our eyes are upon you” (see 2 Chron. 20:12).
When they did so, God gave them direction and He stepped in with a miracle and caused
the army of the Ammonites to begin killing their own soldiers! Now, how does
that happen? It’s God! So make a habit in your life of just standing before the
Lord and simply saying, “Lord, my eyes are upon thee!”

SUCCESS QUOTE FOR TODAY
"I never did anything worth doing by
accident, nor did any of my inventions come indirectly through accident, except
the phonograph. No, when I have fully decided that a result is worth getting, I
go about it, and make trial after trial, until it comes."
