God Heard!

 

Today's verse is 2 Kings 13:4

And Jehoahaz besought the Lord, and the Lord hearkened unto him: for he saw the oppression of Israel, because the king of Syria oppressed them.

    Here is a Marvelous thing: Jehoahaz, a King of Israel, besought the Lord. And the Lord God did not just hear him, but Hearkened unto to him. That is, God answered the request that the King had made. God delivered Israel from their current enemies. How much more: if they had turned from their sin as well? Are you troubled? Do as Jehoahaz did, and turn to the Lord God, he is still seeking those that will seek him, and see what he will do. But, do not rest there, allow God to change your Heart as well, as he promised to do for all that accept that precious Gift he bought for you as he hung on the Cross for your sin. God was gracious to Jehoahaz, He wants to be gracious to you. Will you let him? Amen.

To God be the Glory
