The victory is in God

In 2 Chronicles 32:8, it says: "With him is an arm of flesh; but with us is the LORD our God to help us, and to fight our battles." And the people rested themselves upon the words of Hezekiah, king of Judah."

Many times, we don’t look at a situation from this viewpoint. When we are tried by something or someone, we can say with them is an arm of flesh, but with me is the Lord God.

God overcomes the flesh, and if we are operating in him instead of our flesh, we can win every battle. Even when it comes to our own flesh, we can say the Lord is with me, and he gives us the strength and power to overcome.

We may see something as challenging, and we may be fearful, but without God, it’s weak, and if you’re in God’s will, he will cover and protect. We can’t move within our flesh, but we have to move within God.

The verse above says the people rested in Hezekiah's words because they knew they could trust God and him. God will bring peace and understanding when you feel like you will be overtaken.

Remember: An arm of flesh can be cut off. But nothing or no one can overcome the arm of the Lord.

In this scripture, the king thought he could defeat Hezekiah and his people because he destroyed many other towns and their gods, but those other gods were idols, and Hezekiah sought and depended on the Lord to fight his battles and to help him defeat the enemy.

Be prayerful always and remember God is with you.
