TEXT: “And when he had consulted with the people, he appointed singers unto the Lord, and that should praise the beauty of holiness…” (2Chro 20:21)
I welcome you to our week of divine visitation. Your God and my God shall visit you this week and all pending issues of your life shall turn to testimonies, in Jesus name.
Today is our weekly Hour of Mercy. It holds every Monday from 12pm – 1pm at the comfort of your home, shop, office, etc. (For those working in the office, you can use your break time). It is an hour that God reaches out to us by His mercy. As you take advantage of this today, your testimony shall manifest, in Jesus name.
Are you experiencing battles in life that seem to overwhelm you? And because of the nature of these battles, you don’t know what to do? Have you done all you know to do to no avail and it seems like you have come to the end of the road? I have good news for you this morning, the end of that battle has come. The nation of Judah was besieged by three other nations and they didn’t know what to do (2Chro 20:12). Then the Spirit of God spoke through a Prophet on what they should do in that situation. That is what the Spirit of God wants us to do today.
“And he said, Hearken ye, all Judah…Thus saith the LORD…Be not afraid nor dismayed by reason of this great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God’s. Ye shall not need to fight in this battle: set yourselves, stand ye still, and see the salvation of the LORD with you…tomorrow go out against them: for the LORD will be with you…And when he (Jehoshaphat) had consulted with the people, he appointed singers unto the Lord, and that should praise the beauty of holiness…” (2Chro 20:15-17,21).
Praise is what they engaged that brought victory in that battle. Praise is a medium through which God takes over our battles. When the battle looks stronger than your capacity, pass it over to the God via praise who in turn will deal with it. Praise is not feeling good; it is stirring God into action.
Have you tried your best and things are not working the way you anticipated? God is taking over the battle from you today! Whatever force that is arrayed against you; you shall walk over as you engage in high praise to God today! For God to do the unusual in your life, praise Him. In the midst of your praise, God will make you to ride upon your high places in Jesus name.
ACTION STEP:
Engage in high praise and worship to God between 12pm and 1pm today. Write down the challenge while praising God and see how God will turn it around for a testimony.
PRAYER: Every challenge of your life shall bow through your praise to God today, in Jesus name!
DAILY CONFESSION:
This year 2024, I am advancing in adversity because I’ve been redeemed to flourish in hard times therefore my life shall be full of wonders. Amen and amen.
FOOD FOR THOUGHT: “When your battle looks stronger than your capacity, pass it over to the God via praise.”
