In the bible, there are many moments of crisis that are expressed as moments of opportunity. This is because God is able to do things that are impossible for men. Those who admit their weaknesses and trust God’s power are able to experience salvation through moments of crisis.
In today’s passage however, King Ahaz failed to see God through his crisis because he didn’t have faith in God. His lack of faith caused him to commit more sins in times of crisis.
As believers, crisis is an opportunity for us to experience God’s power. I pray that when we are faced with crisis, we can experience victory by trusting God.
Passage: 2 Chronicles 28:16-27
22 In his time of trouble King Ahaz became even more unfaithful to the Lord.
23 He offered sacrifices to the gods of Damascus, who had defeated him; for he thought, “Since the gods of the kings of Aram have helped them, I will sacrifice to them so they will help me.” But they were his downfall and the downfall of all Israel.
24 Ahaz gathered together the furnishings from the temple of God and cut them in pieces. He shut the doors of the Lord’s temple and set up altars at every street corner in Jerusalem.
25 In every town in Judah he built high places to burn sacrifices to other gods and aroused the anger of the Lord, the God of his ancestors.
1. Did you think of Jesus when you woke up this morning?
2. What is God’s message to you?
3. What do you need to obey?
4. What are you grateful for today?
