Title: Trust in the name of the Lord
First, King Asa destroyed the pagan altars, high places, and pillars that did not call on the name of the Lord, and destroyed the Asherah (canaanite goddess) image and the sun image.
His hard-line policy for the realization of justice before God brought peace to the country. This peace means that there is no conflict with neighboring countries, and the grace of construction and prosperity abounds (2 Chronicles 14:5-7). Such confidence filled the morale of the people. Therefore, he confessed, "We have sought the LORD our God, and he has given us peace on every side."
Second, those who call on the name of the Lord pray, saying, “There is no one to help you but the Lord” even in the most dire situation.
King Asa's people prayed together and said that God would help them fight with 1 million Cushites and 300 chariots. “O Lord, you are our God; please do not let men overcome you.” This is the confident prayer of those who call on your name confidently.
Dear saint! The reason that King Asa and his people defeated Serah the Cushite was to turn the impossible into the possible because they depended on the name of the Lord. Jehovah answered the people's prayers. Thus, the Cushites were completely defeated. Not only that, but also the neighboring countries were very afraid of this fact. Therefore, let's call on the name of the Lord who defeats a million armies and raise a status report. -Amen-
