When our back is against the wall, do we realize that God is there with us? We may not feel like He’s there, but Pastor Ford will remind us today that the Bible tells us that He really is there, waiting to assist us in our time of need.

When we face trails and we feel like we have nowhere to turn, God wants us to know that He is bigger than what we are facing and what feels like it’s bigger than we are. And when we attach ourselves to God and trust His plan, we don’t have to worry about what we’re going through.

When we feel like our back is up against the wall, we ought to be expecting the fruitful provision from God, despite the fact that it doesn’t look like it’s possible for Him to provide in the midst of our problems. Even though we don’t understand what’s going on and we don’t like it, we ought to be expecting...

When they were surrounded by enemies and their back was up against the wall, all that King Jehoshaphat and the army of Judah did was trust God. And God fought the battle for them.

That’s because He’s shaping us to make us into something that we currently are not. And why is He doing that?  Because in the current shape we’re in, God won’t give us what He ultimately does...

Do you only see the trials and the tragedies around you, or do you also see the Lord? Do you see the providential hand of God working in your life? If not, then you’ll want to listen as Pastor Ford reminds us today of how we can trust God when we feel like our back is up against the wall.

As we continue to study in the book of 2 Chronicles, we’ll see how God gives King Jehoshaphat and the army of Judah a promise. Pastor Ford explains that God did that because they needed to understand what He was going to do in the midst of their current circumstance. He wanted to change their outlook, by telling them their outcome.

When our back is up against the wall, we have to seek the face of the Father. We have to know that Christ is there with us because He has promised to never leave us, nor forsake us.
