    You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is

    in you is greater than he who is in the world.


    1 John 4:4

    MORE WITH YOU THAN AGAINST YOU

    When you or a loved one faces a frightening medical condition, questions for which you
    have no answers can often overwhelm your mind.

    What are we going to do? How long do I have? Who will look after my kids? How am I
    going to afford the treatment? Will I ever be the same? Why me?

    What can you do when your thoughts are completely out of control and you can only
    imagine the worst is coming?

    The Bible records the following account in 2 Kings 6 for our encouragement. Israel’s
    enemies were so desperate to capture the prophet Elisha that they sent a great army with
    horses and chariots by night and surrounded the city where he was staying. When Elisha’s
    servant woke up and saw this army, he despaired and cried out in fear, “What shall we do?”

    May I invite you to read for yourself what happened next?

    “So he [Elisha] answered, ‘Do not fear, for those who are with us are more than those who
    are with them.’ And Elisha prayed, and said, ‘LORD, I pray, open his eyes that he may see.’
    Then the LORD opened the eyes of the young man, and he saw. And behold, the mountain
    was full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.”

    —2 Kings 6:16–17
    It may feel like a formidable army of symptoms, negative reports, and maybe even financial
    debt has surrounded you. But, beloved, do not fear, for those who are with you are so much
    more than those who are with them.

    Right now, I pray that the Lord will open your eyes so you might see the legions of angels
    stationed around you. Take your eyes off your enemies. The ability of your enemies to hurt
    you is nothing compared to the greatness of your God and His power to save you.

    Take your eyes off the enemy so you may see the exceeding greatness of God’s power
    toward you. The same mighty power that raised our Lord Jesus from the grave, the same
    power that seated Him at God’s right hand in the heavenly places—far above all
    principalities, power, might, and dominion, and every name that is named, not only in this
    age but also in the age to come (Eph. 1:19–21)—is working for you and for your loved one!

    Is human papillomavirus a name? Is bacterial meningitis a name? Is Parkinson’s disease a


    name? Then it has to yield to Jesus, who is seated at the Father’s right hand, far above the
    diseases. And because you are in Christ today, as He is, so are you in this world (1 John
    4:17)!

    This devotional is taken from the book The Healing Power of the Holy Communion—A 90-
    Day Devotional.
