A DANGEROUS CHALLENGE

READ:
2 Chronicles . After humbly asking God for help, King Jehoshaphat appointed a choir to march out into the battle in front of the Israelite army. The worshippers sang "Praise the Lord, for His mercy endures forever"(v.21). When they began to sing, the Lord caused the enemy forces to attack and destroy each other.
Praising God in the midst of a challenge may mean overriding our natural instincts. We tend towards self reliance. It reminds us of the lesson the Israelites learned: "The battle is not(ours), but God's"(v.15) - Jennifer Benson Schuldt
Lord I praise You for your mercy is everlasting.
Help me to remember that every battle in this life is Yours.
The outcome belongs to You because You are sovereign.

No matter what is in front of us God is always behind us.
