“Lord, there is none beside thee to help” (2 Chronicles 14:11).

The odds against Asa were enormous! There was a million of men in arms against him, besides three hundred chariots. It seemed impossible to hold his own against that vast multitude. There were no allies who would come to his help; his only hope, therefore, was in God.

It may be that your difficulties have been allowed to come to so alarming a pitch that you may be compelled to renounce all creature aid, to which in lesser trials you have had recourse, and cast yourself back on your Almighty Friend.

Ask God to come between yourself and your foe! To Asa’s faith
– The Lord seemed to stand between the might of Zerah and himself, as one who had no strength. Nor was he mistaken.

We are told that the Ethiopians were destroyed before the Lord and before His host, as though celestial combatants flung themselves against the foes on Israel’s behalf, and put the large host to rout, so that Israel had only to follow up and gather the spoil.

Our God is the Lord of hosts!
-who can summon unexpected reinforcements at any moment to aid His people. Believe that He is there between you and your difficulty! And what baffles you will flee before Him, as clouds before the gale. He will fight for you, actually He is fighting for you to give you supernatural victory!

Say to your sight, “Stand back!”
Tell the laws of nature, “Keep quiet!!”
Command your confusing heart, “Hold your peace!”

The battle is ONLY the Lord’s! But the victory is His and yours!!
