Get off the news and social media and into the Word.
2 Chronicles 20:12 (NIV)
12 Our God, will you not judge them? For we have no power to face this vast army that is attacking us. We do not know what to do, but our eyes are on you.”
In faith, ask God to do it again.
Do you believe that God has done it before and that He can do it again? Don’t try to figure out how, just ask “Do you believe God has done it before and He can do it again?”
