The Sword Of Jehoshaphat

The Sword of Jehoshaphat…

God tells King Jehoshaphat that his army is to go into battle led by singers, praising and worshiping Him. The enemy comes with weapons, shields, and chariots, but the army of Israel comes out singing, praising and worshiping God.

Imagine going into battle against heavily armed people ready to kill you and you have nothing but songs and your faith. So what happened? The armies that came against them became confused and ended up destroying themselves.

God’s people did nothing but worship Him. Praise and worship isn’t just a nice thing, it’s a powerful weapon. Do you want to win your battle, beat the enemy in triumph, and come out of that problem stronger than ever?

Praise and worship the King! It’s more powerful than all the strategies in the world. Get out your voice and instruments and praise Him even in the battle – especially in the battle!

Then the enemy won’t know what to do and you will end up being victorious – as victorious as the army, or worship band, of Jehoshaphat.

He said: “Listen, King Jehoshaphat and all who live in Judah and Jerusalem! This is what the Lord says to you: ‘Do not be afraid or discouraged because of this vast army. For the battle is not yours, but God’s. 2 Chronicles 20:15

Face your battles today with the praise and worship of God on your lips and let Him confuse your enemies.

Walk daily with God at your side!

Love always,

Ed
