A nation that trust in God

“So it came about, on the day of battle, that there was neither sword nor spear found in the hand of any of the people who were with Saul and Jonathan.” ~ 1 Samuel 13:22 (NKJV).

The Israelites were badly outnumbered by the Philistines in this story of Saul and Jonathan heading into battle and we are told in scripture that they were at a huge technological disadvantage. The only way they could win was to become a nation that trust in God for everything!

The way things are stacking up against us, I think God is building our nation to become one that will trust in Him for everything. We need to drop to our knees, pray for our nation, pray for patience, and trust in Him for everything.  

It is time for us to shine and not whine. Be thankful for all the things you have and walk in victory with JESUS. He is our all in all and our goodness is nothing without Him.

King David wrote in Psalm 16, “…you are my Lord, my goodness is nothing apart from you.” Hmmm. David had figured out that he was nothing without God. Maybe that is why David is said to be a man after God’s own heart.

We, too, need to surrender to the LORD, ask for forgiveness, repent, and come to know that our goodness is nothing without Him.
