2Ch 32:8 “With him is an arm of flesh; but with us is the LORD our God, to help us and to fight our battles.” And the people were strengthened by the words of Hezekiah king of Judah.
Sennacherib invaded Judah with the soul aim of putting the whole region under his leadership. He did so at the right time because Hezekiah had just concluded the religious reforms and had led Israelites back to God. After blocking all the water springs from flowing outside Jerusalem, he repaired the wall, built another wall outside that one and then appointed military officers over the people.
Then he assembled them in the city square and encouraged them with these words .”2Ch 32:7 “Be strong and courageous; do not be afraid nor dismayed before the king of Assyria, nor before all the multitude that is with him; for there are more with us than with him. 2Ch 32:8 “With him is an arm of flesh; but with us is the LORD our God, to help us and to fight our battles.” And the people were strengthened by the words of Hezekiah king of Judah.
You may be going through stiff opposition and tough times and you may be considering giving up. Be strong and courageous and do not think of surrendering. With them is the hand of flesh but with us is the Lord our God to help us fight our battles.
