Who's side are you...?

II Chronicles 15:1-2, 7 NKJV

Now the Spirit of God came upon Azariah the son of Oded. And he went out to meet Asa, and said to him: “Hear me, Asa, and all Judah and Benjamin. The Lord  is with you while you are with Him. If you seek Him, He will be found by you; but if you forsake Him, He will forsake you. But you, be strong and do not let your hands be weak, for your work shall be rewarded!”

Shalom! Day #181. Do you know that the Lord is with you, He is on your side while you are with Him? Let's pray. Father, we want to be found in You, standing firm in You. Strengthen us from inside out. Who can be against us when You are with me? We declare this today. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

Many quote this scripture wrongly "If my God is for me, who can be against me?" Actually, when you are found in God's side, when you are with the Lord, then the Lord is with You. Jesus said,  "abide in Me and I in you" and not the other way round. When you are with God, it's about result oriented, it's about progress and growth and it means that there's no place for laziness. It also means that when you are with God, you must keep on moving forward. In every written accounts about all those mighty men of God in the bible, when they engaged in wars after inquiring the Lord, they saw victory after victory because they want to be in the Lord's side. Who's side are you today?

In today's verse, it is written that "But you, be strong and do not let your hands be weak, for your work shall be rewarded!" It simply means that do not falter when you are pursuing something together with God, continue to stand strong and stand firm. It is also written in I Corinthians 15:58 NKJV Therefore, my beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not in vain in the Lord. Wow... what a promise! When you are always on-the-go for God and constantly doing His works and being in God's side, lo and behold your labor is not in vain in the Lord! Hallelujah! You move wherever the Lord moves! Your works are rewarded when you work with God, together with God.

Let this day be the day of the Lord!
