God of the Valleys

1 Kings 20:28, "... the Arameans have said, 'The Lord is a god of the mountains, but He is not a god of the valleys,' therefore I will give all this great multitude into your hand, and you shall know that I am the Lord."

God is not only the God of our mountains, when we experience victories, answered prayers and successes, but he is also God of our valleys, trials and chastisements. Often times we celebrate when we conquer mountains but we resent Him when he brings us to valleys. Valleys are just as important as the mountains in our life's journeys. And He is the God who turns our deepest pitfalls for His good purpose. "You shall know that I am THE LORD [of all]." Wherever you are today, whether on a mountain top or a darkest valley, be still and know that He is God.
