Read it: 2 Kings 20: 1-6
Live it:
Have you ever received a “no” before your miracle happened?
How disheartening it must have been for Hezekiah to hear the Lord say that he should get his affairs in order, he was dying. Maybe you feel disheartened by a perceived, or actual “no.”
In that moment Hezekiah could have simply waited to die, but he chose to continue–while he still had breath–to pray to God. He chose to continue the relationship, to ask for favor, and to weep before the Lord.
Ultimately, Hezekiah’s prayer changed the trajectory of his life. God chose to hear his prayer and to heal his body.
Take heart; our God cares for us deeply and despite the obstacles, He listens to our prayers.
Your miracle may be one more prayer away.
Ps. Jenni
