#soap # 2 Chronicles 13 ## Title: God is Our “Secret” Weapon ## Scripture: (2 Chronicles 13:12) “Now look, God is with us as our leader. His priests are ready to blow the trumpets to signal the attack against you. You Israelites, don’t fight against the Lord God of your ancestors, for you will not win!” (NET) ## Observation: This is an amazing story. Neither nation is following God the way they should. However, Judah turns to the Lord in their distress. They have found out they are outnumbered. The people coming against them are supposed to be their brethren. It’s not a good day. What they don’t know is that it is even worse. While they are pleading with Israel, their enemy is working to ambush them. However, God is with them because He is their leader. When we let God lead, things work out. He sees things we could never see. How do we do this? We let God lead by following His Word and submitting our lives to His will. ## Application: Live today as second in command of your life. God is our leader. ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for being so trustworthy.
