GOD FIGHTS FOR YOU! #podcast #Judah #Bible #soundclip #shorts

From the latest AS BOLD AS LIONS podcast: God Fights For You!

Thus says the LORD to you “Do not be afraid and do not be dismayed at this great horde, for the battle is not yours but God’s”.  2 Chronicles 20:15

When the people of Judah face a fierce opponent in 2 Chronicles 20, there is a right response made by King Jehoshaphat.  Even as he is afraid of the enemies of Moab and Ammon, the king calls for a fast over the land.  His prayer in verse 12 is one of the most honest prayers in all of Scripture:  "We do not know what to do, but our eyes are on you.”  The Lord does end up answering the prayers of the people and the king.  The enemy is routed.  Judah experiences peace and fear of their nation grips even other nations beyond them.  

This week's podcast realizes that even though we face daily battles, those fights belong to the Lord.  We must stand in obedience and wait patiently as we give the fight over to Him.  Furthermore, we must worship as we go into the battle.  As praise goes up, His presence leads us.  Finally, as we fight we know the enemy has to run when God shows up.  May we take courage and may go into each situation knowing that we can operate from a place of victory.  Christ has already won the fight!
