He also paid about 7,500 pounds of silver to hire 100,000 experienced fighting men from Israel. But a man of God came to him and said, “Your Majesty, do not hire troops from Israel, for the LORD is not with Israel. He will not help those people of Ephraim! If you let them go with your troops into battle, you will be defeated by the enemy no matter how well you fight. God will overthrow you, for he has the power to help you or to trip you up.” Amaziah asked the man of God, “But what about all that silver I paid to hire the army of Israel?” The man of God replied, “The LORD is able to give you much more than this!”

7 Days
Pastor Aaron Früh believes we can rebound from the traumas of life and bounce back stronger, happier, and wiser than before—if we will just keep pressing on regardless. Invest seven days of your devotional times learning through Scripture the exhilarating wonder of character that allows you to be knocked down at times but come back better than ever.
What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger. Or not? In this Plan, we will explore how our own will and imaginary strength often stand in the way of God’s power. “Each time He said, ‘My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness’” (2 Corinthians 12:9, NLT).
