My Lord Jesus is ALWAYS with me
2
Who am I?

• I was the 4th King of Judah
• I was 35 years old when I became king
• I reigned for 25 years
• My father was also king before me.
• I tried to follow Gods commands.
• God gave me many blessings
• I always prayed and tried to seek God in every
  step I took.
• Before I decided if I was going with King Ahab to
  fight a war, I wanted to seek Gods will first.

3

• At another time, war was rising against me from
  the people of Moab as well as the people of Ammon
  and Mount Seir.
• What did I do?
• I set myself to seek God, and proclaimed a fast
  throughout all Judah.
• We cried out to Him saying For we have no power
  against this great multitude that is coming
  against us nor do we know what to do, but our
  eyes are upon You

4

• A prophet from God came and told me that the Lord
  says Do not be afraid nor dismayed because of
  this great multitude, for the battle is not
  yours, but Gods
• He told me that even though we were going to war,
  we would not have to fight, but that God will be
  with us and deliver us.
• So we went in to war singing and praising God,
  saying Praise the Lord for His mercy endures
  forever

5

• So what happened?
• God made the other nations start fighting against
  each other!
• We went back to Jerusalem singing and praising
  God for He had fought for us and delivered us.
• God gave us the victory!!

  relationship with Him, the more I can become like
  Him.

  beauty to everyone around us.
