(Mission Cast) No One Is Able To Withstand You (2 Chronicles 20:6; Luke 4:29 30 )
Jeff and Mim discuss Jehoshaphat's (the King of Judah) prayer. An overwhelming army (a great horde) was arrayed against Jerusalem. Defeat was all but guaranteed in the midst of overwhelming numbers, yet, the battle was not theirs to fight. The battle belonged to the Lord. The next morning, the people of Judah awoke to a great surprise. The invading army had been completely vanquished during the night. They had done nothing to secure the victory — it was all the Lord’s doing. Jesus fought our battle upon the cross and overcame the forces of sin, death and the power of the Evil One. We did nothing. Jesus did it all, as he took our sin upon himself and set us free for forgivin’ livin.’ The Lord is not slow in his return, but desires that none should be lost. A year unto the Lord is like a thousand years. A thousand years is like a year. It doesn’t matter. The Lord’s timing is impeccable. Nothing can thwart God from accomplishing his purposes or redemption and regeneration. He will complete the work. No weapon formed against you will prevail. The gates of hell cannot stand against the Lord Almighty. No nation is impenetrable for the gospel. Be of strong courage. Have faith and believe. The battle belongs to the Lord.
