Session 8
Invincible
From Salvation Rise
Listen to “Invincible” then read the following:
Hezekiah was the king of Israel for close to 30 years. He came to power in his mid-20s and ruled until about 715 BC. Like most of us, Hezekiah didn’t get everything right. But one thing Hezekiah did get right was this: He recognized that even as royalty, he wasn’t the greatest.
When a neighboring country was poised to invade Israel, Hezekiah turned to God for help:
"O Lord Almighty, God of Israel, enthroned between the cherubim, you alone are God over all the kingdoms of the earth. You have made heaven and earth. Give ear, O Lord, and hear; open your eyes, O Lord, and see” (Isaiah 37:16-17).
God created everything and rules over everything. Psalm 29 says His voice echoes and thunders over the sea. God’s power and fame is so great, it can’t be hidden or contained. And like Hezekiah, we have God on our side.
Whatever you’re facing today, God is greater. God is greater than the frenemy who talks behind your back, the bills that threaten to bankrupt you and any condition a doctor can diagnose. He’s greater than the addiction you’ve battled for years and the anger that threatens to destroy your relationships.
Whatever our weakness, whatever our pain, we don’t have to accept it as the way things are. We have access to greatness. Our God is mighty warrior who wins every time. What do you need His help with today?
