In the Old Testament, people carried banners when they went to war, sending the singers and praisers into the battle first. When the tribe of Judah sang, “Oh, give thanks to the L-rd, for He is good, for His mercy endures forever” (2 Chron. 20:21), the enemy was so confused they were self-slaughtered and self-defeated.
When King Jehoshaphat prepared for battle, he took the position of getting on his face to worship G-d. If you have battles to face, get in the position of warfare, and just worship the L-rd your G-d.
His response to our worship is, “Be not afraid or dismayed at this great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but Mine, saith the L-rd.”
Ps. 14:7 says “The angel of the L-rd encamps around those who fear Him, who revere and worship Him with awe and each of them He delivers.”
Spending time with the Father keeps you stable, steadfast, and calm. G-d says: “fear not; for I am with you: be not dismayed for I am your G-d: I will strengthen you; yea, I will help you; yea, I will uphold you with the right hand of My righteousness.” (Isa. 41:10).
When your faith is fed daily by G-d’s presence, the adversary can’t control you, because you don’t get easily upset.
Being filled with G-d’s truth makes it easier to live the life G-d had for you. Let G-d be your anchor in the midst of the raging waves of circumstances and remain steadfast in His love.
Gen. 15:6 says: “And Abram believed in (trusted in, relied on, remained steadfast to) the L-rd, and He counted it to him as righteousness, right standing with G-d.”
It is the L-rd’s battle, stop trying to fight it alone.
Remain Steadfast in His love.
