They That Be With Us Be More Than They That be With Them.

2 Kings 6:16, 17 Here Elisha and his young servant find themselves surrounded by an army bent on destroying them. The servant asks Elisha what they should do, and Elisha assures him that the Lord is protecting them. He then prays that the servants eyes will be opened, and the servant sees that the mountain is full of horses and chariots of fire.

Often we feel so alone and overwhelmed and desperate. We can see that we don't have what it takes. We measure our abilities and talents and resources and compare them to the needs and requirements of our lives. We see that we come up short most of the time. If we could only see that the Lord with all His angels and armies are on our side. He will sustain and help us. He will guide us. We just need to open our eyes and have faith.
