We all love to pray and worship the Lord! I love the sounds of “praise” in a Church full of God’s people! But there comes a time when we need a miracle; we must “turn our face to the wall” and “do whatever it takes to get God’s attention!!!”
In 2nd Kings 20:1-2, a great man of God, Hezekiah, was “sick unto death.” In the Bible, when you are “sick unto death,” you are “going to die” any minute. The Prophet Isaiah, the son of Amoz, came to Hezekiah with a Word from the Lord. It wasn’t a “good news word.” It was a “death announcement” to Hezekiah to “set his house in order because he was going to die.” That was bad enough, but the Prophet said, “Thou shalt die, and NOT LIVE!”
But Hezekiah “turned his face to the wall and prayed to God.” God heard the agony of his prayers and said, “I have heard thy prayers and seen thy tears. Behold, I will heal thee.”
Sometimes, we must “turn our face to the wall, and pray to get the answer!” We love you, and God is on your side.
