Today's Scripture *May 13, 2009*
2 Kings 19: 15-19
And Hezekiah prayed this prayer before the Lord: “O Lord, God of Israel, you are enthroned between the mighty cherubim! You alone are God of all the kingdoms of the earth. You alone created the heavens and the earth. Bend down, O Lord, and listen! Open your eyes, O Lord, and see! Listen to Sennacherib’s words of defiance against the living God.
It is true, Lord, that the kings of Assyria have destroyed all these nations. And they have thrown the gods of these nations into the fire and burned them. But of course the Assyrians could destroy them! They were not gods at all—only idols of wood and stone shaped by human hands. Now, O Lord our God, rescue us from his power; then all the kingdoms of the earth will know that you alone, O Lord, are God.”
Although Hezekiah came boldly to God, he did not take God for granted or approach Him flippantly. Instead, Hezekiah acknowledged God's Sovereignty and Judah's total dependance on Him. Hezekiah's prayer provides a good model for us. We should not be afraid to approach God with or prayers, but we must come to Him with respect for who He is and what He can do.
God You are Sovereign and Mighty! We acknowledge that You are so much bigger then our circumstances.
You are the Lord of all the earth, nothing is impossible or too hard for You.
May we grow to know You more and more. Help us to come into Your presence with thanksgiving and praise.
In Your Precious and Holy Name, Amen..
God bless,
April
