2 Chronicles 20:1-24 “God is Trustworthy”

When Jehoshaphat, King of Judah, hears about an advancing army poised on the doorstep of Judah, ready to invade, he prays to the Lord in the temple and seeks the wisdom of the Lord through His prophet. When we are confronted by fears, trials, and afflictions, where do we turn? Jehoshaphat had the temple, but we have the Great High Priest. Jehoshaphat sought the prophet of the Lord, but we have the living Word of God. Therefore, we, all the more, can turn to a God who is trustworthy.
