An Unusual Battle!

                                  A Most Unusual Battle!

Don't miss this!

Read a truly remarkable chapter about a truly remarkable battle!

Read 2 Chronicles 20:1-30.

King Jehoshaphat of Judah is faced with a terrifying problem: multiple enemy armies are marching against them. They are surrounded -- no way to defend themselves -- catastrophe waiting!

What is his plan? Verses 12-13: "All the men of Judah with their wives and children and little ones, stood there before the LORD." They cried, "we have no power to face this vast army...we do not know what to do. Our eyes are on You."

God told them they wouldn't need to fight. He simply asked them to take their positions and trust Him. "Go out and face them tomorrow and the LORD will be with you."

So that's what they did! They took their positions -- starting with a praise and worship team at the front of the army! Seriously! They sang praises and worshipped! And God set up ambushes against their enemies!

What would it look like to put worship in front of our battles?

This record reminds us that worship is not just a musical moment -- it is an act of war in the spiritual realm!

When we praise God in the middle of pain, fear and chaos, we are declaring "Our God is greater than this problem! He is greater than any catastrophe we face!"

Worship shifts our eyes from anxiety to assurance, from the emergency to His eternal power!

Heaven starts moving on our behalf when we choose to honor God and worship Him no matter what we face!

(Don't miss this extraordinary account - Read 2 Chronicles 20:1-30 again)

Are there battles you are facing now where God wants  you to stop and worship instead of organizing your strategy and gathering your troops?
