Lessons on Abijah (3)â€”God Delivers Those Who Call to Him

When Judah looked around, to their surprise the battle line was at both front and rear; and they cried out to the Lord, and the priests sounded the trumpets. Then the men of Judah gave a shout; and as the men of Judah shouted, it happened that God struck Jeroboam and all Israel before Abijah and Judah.
2 Chronicles 13:14-15

They had boasted greatly, but now found themselves surrounded in the battle!

Yet the Lord delivered them, and we read of three reasons why. First, in . God delivers those who trust in Him!
