Pastor Marshall Ochs | November 24, 2024
In this message, Pastor Marshall teaches from 2 Kings 19-20. These chapters focus on the power of prayer and the importance of maintaining humility before God. King Hezekiah, facing the threat of Assyria and a terminal illness, prays earnestly, appealing to God's power and sovereignty, and God responds by miraculously saving Judah and extending Hezekiah’s life. These stories teach us to cultivate a robust prayer life, grounded in Scripture, as prayer connects us to the God who can change circumstances. However, they also serve as a warning not to become prideful in the blessings or answers to prayer, reminding us to acknowledge God's role in our success and to remain humble.
