When you don't know what to do

"O our God, wilt thou not judge them? for we have no might against this great company that cometh against us; neither know we what to do: but our eyes are upon thee." 2 Chronicles 20:12

Many times in our lives, we come up against situations, and we do not know what to do. Not only do not know what to do, we don't know anyone who has an idea of what we can do to get out of the situation. This was the situation that Israel found itself in, and according to their king, they had no might to confront the multitude of enemies that had come against them. Theirs, like ours, was twofold, they had no might to match the strength of their enemies, and they were lost as to what they could do. No strength, no idea.

But they looked beyond their incapacity, and looked up to God. In the words of the king, " But our eyes are upon you". They knew that what was greater than them was not greater than their God. I say the same to you today, what is greater than you is not greater than God. If you will only take your eyes off yourself and what people can do for you, and turn to God, what He did for Israel, He will do for you.
