You will not need to fight in this battle. Position yourselves, stand still and see the salvation of the Lord, who is with you, O Judah and Jerusalem!” Do not fear or be dismayed; tomorrow go out against them, for the Lord is with you. 2 Chronicles 20:17 NKJV
The king of Israel received news that a great army was coming against God’s people. They would be hopelessly out numbered. Sometimes thinking about the size of our problems is worse than facing them. King Jehoshaphat turned to God in prayer first. He did not wait until all of his resources were exhausted. God wants us to cry out to Him in faith first. Not as a last resort when all else fails but as the first and most effective action we can take! The people of Israel were God’s chosen people. They were His beloved people. The Lord was with them. Today all people who call on the name of the Lord and put their faith in Jesus are the people of God. We are His chosen people, His beloved people. God is with us today. God fought this battle for His people. He brought about a great victory for them! God will fight your battles today. He will bring about great victories in your life if you position yourself in faith! When a man’s ways please the Lord He causes even his enemies to be at peace with him. How will you please God today? By faith. Without faith it is impossible to please God! Jesus promised us we will suffer trials and tribulations in this world. He also promised never to leave us or forsake us. Jesus will never to turn His back on us! The Lord of Heaven and Earth is not calling you to fight your battles with a sword or spear. He is not calling you to fight your battles with a gun or a knife. He is calling you to fight your battles through faith in Jesus Christ! God is calling you to humble yourself before Him today. He is calling you to submit to His will for your life today. Jesus is calling you to fight through the temptations and deceptions you face today. Jesus is calling us to trust Him today! The battle between good and evil is the Lord’s. Trust Jesus to fight the battle. Jesus is always victorious! http://www.joyfor2day.com https://twitter.com/JoyFor2day #Joyfor2daydailydevotional
