2 Chronicles 14:9
ReplyDeleteAsa cried out to the Lord and asked him to help defeat the Ethiopians (a 1 million man army) vs. Asa's army of 580,000. Way outnumbered. Then when Baasha King of Judah tried to build Ramah to keep anyone from going in to Asa or coming out from him, Asa asked the King of Syria to make a treaty with him and break the treaty he had with Baasha king of Judah, and he did. Then the seer came to Asa and said "Why did you not call on the Lord to help." Because you called on the King of Syria, the king of Syria escaped from your hand.
So God wanted to show himself strong on Asa's behalf. It is like God watched Asa hoping he would call on Him. God was available and waiting......The fact that the seer came and delivered the word right after this shows God was attending to Judah (Asa).
The seer said "For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is loyal to Him.
