4 THEN Jehoahaz sought the Lord’s FAVOUR, and the Lord listened to him, for he saw how severely the king of Aram was oppressing Israel. 2 Kings 13
We don’t know when the ‘Then’ was, (he ruled for seventeen years) the point when Jehoahaz sought the Lord’s Favour, but that was a Change Point for Israel.
5 THE LORD PROVIDED A DELIVERER FOR ISRAEL, and they escaped from the power of Aram. So the Israelites lived in their own homes as they had before.
When I read this scripture this morning I sensed that we are at a Turning Point, that God is about to intervene and the power of Aram (the enemy) is soon to be broken. It wasn’t that Everything in Israel was suddenly perfect, far from it, but God saw the heart of a leader and delivered His people. We serve a Good and Merciful God who is coming once again to help His people.
God bless and keep us today.
