Happy New Month

“Now when they began to sing and to praise, the LORD set ambushes against the people of Ammon, Moab, and Mount Seir, who had come against Judah; and they were defeated.” II Chronicles 20:22

Have you ever been in a situation that looks as though the entire world is against you, and the information you need for liberation is not forthcoming? All successful people in life have their fair share of such; what differentiates those who succeed from those that fail, is their response to their trying times.

Jehoshaphat, King of Judah was faced with a terrible situation; three nations coming against him and his people to utterly destroy them – nations more sophisticated than they were, but in the midst of their challenge, Jehoshaphat and his subjects received an information with instruction that sounds illogical, and today’s scripture is an obedience to that instruction. It is a standard practice to engage in warfare with sophisticated weapons, of course, superior fire powers than that of your adversaries when you have effectively measured what they’ve got in their armory. In this case, God instructed Judah to engage in singing and praising Him, that spelt doom for the enemies and became the victory of Judah.

Praise is a massive weapon in the arsenal of those who understand it and effectively engage it. You move God to act when you praise; you don’t know what you miss every time you are not in praise and worship session in Church. Today, fan your praise life to flame and watch the enemies associated with this month come under your feet. WELCOME to MONTH JUNE 2017!
