911


Then he sent horses and chariots
and a strong force there.
They went by night and surrounded the city.

When the servant of the man of God got up
and went out early the next morning,
an army with horses and chariots had surrounded the city.
"Oh, my lord, what shall we do?" the servant asked.

"Don't be afraid," the prophet answered.
"Those who are with us are more than those who are with them."

And Elisha prayed, "O LORD, open his eyes so he may see."
Then the LORD opened the servant's eyes,
and he looked and saw the hills
full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.

-II Kings 6:14-17


God will fight our battles for us.
May our eyes be open to see
that He has everything under control.
Even when the situation seems impossible...
with God ALL things are possible.
And what seems insurmountable to us
is really a small matter
in the eyes of the Lord.
