Jehoshaphat: When You Don't Know What To Do


Listen Later

In this powerful message, we're reminded of what to do when we don't know what to do. The story of King Jehoshaphat in 2 Chronicles 20 serves as a beacon of hope for those facing seemingly insurmountable challenges. When confronted with a vast army, Jehoshaphat's response teaches us valuable lessons about faith and trust. Instead of relying on his own strength or military might, he turned to God first. This reminds us that our initial response in times of crisis should be to look up, not out. The message emphasizes that sometimes God allows desperation in our lives to show us His salvation. It's in these moments of powerlessness that we learn to fully depend on Him. The practice of setting our face towards God, seeking Him earnestly, and fasting as a community are powerful spiritual disciplines we can apply in our own lives when facing difficulties. Perhaps most striking is the idea that praise and worship can be our weapon in spiritual battles. Just as Jehoshaphat sent singers ahead of the army, we too can choose to praise God before we see the victory. This message challenges us to trust in God's promises and to respond with faith, even when circumstances seem dire.
