That's the title of a song by Robbie Williams. No, I'm not going to talk about this song. Rather, I'm going to talk about a story about how a war was won by an army who did nothing but sang.
Win when you're singing!
Yes, singing was the strategy that God gave when the armies of Moab and Ammon, together with the Meunites, went to war against Jehoshaphat.
He was so scared. He got everyone to fast and prayed. Suddenly God's Spirit spoke to Jahaziel. He told the people, '...You won't even have to fight. Just take your positions and watch the LORD rescue you from your enemy. Don't be afraid. Just do as you're told. And as you march out tomorrow, the LORD will be there with you.
Early the next morning, Jehoshaphat the king, spoke to the people, "Listen my friends, if we trust the LORD God and believe what these prophets have told us, the LORD will help us, and we will be successful." Then he explained his plan and appointed men to march in front of the army and praise the LORD for his holy power by singing: "Praise the LORD! His love never ends."
As soon as they began singing, the LORD confused the enemy camp, so that the Ammonite and Moabite troops attacked and completely destroyed those from Edom. Then they turned against each other and fought until the entire camp was wiped out!
YEAH! Win when you're singing.
That is the strategy to win. No matter how stressful or fearful a situation we may be in, when we start singing praises to God, He will fight for us. Amen.
