In the Day of Trouble
"Call upon me in the day of trouble..."
yes, in the day of trouble
yes, the day of trouble
yes, the day of trouble.
Do you have a God to call upon in the day of trouble?
Do you have a God to call upon in the day of trouble?
Do you?
Do you?
Do you call on the Devil in the day of trouble?
Do you?
yes, do you?
Do you?
Saul called on the Witch of Endor and perished with Jonathan
yes, he perished with Jonathan.
Ahab and Jezebel called on Baal and perished.
Ahaziah called on Baalzebub, the god of Ekron and perished.
Jeroboam called on his golden calves and perished.
ASA called on his doctors and perished.
Hezekiah called on Jehovah God and was saved from death.
Jehoshepath called on the God of Israel , and God fought
his numerous enemies,
his numerous enemies.
Nehemiah called on the God of Israel, and rebuilt the ruins of Jerusalem.

God saved the Jews from a progrom.
Do you depend on your father
or mother
or your friend?
Do you depend
on your weapons?
"The arm of flesh will fail you."
"Cursed is he who depends on the arm of flesh."
You cannot fight your battles alone.
You need God
to help you,;
yes, you need God
to help you.
Yes, you need God
to help you,
yes, to help you.
