2 Chronicles 20:14-17Then Jahaziel was moved by the Spirit of God to speak from the midst of the congregation. (Jahaziel was the son of Zechariah, the son of Benaiah, the son of Jeiel, the son of Mattaniah the Levite of the Asaph clan.)He said, “Attention everyone—all of you from out of town, all you from Jerusalem, and you King Jehoshaphat—God’s word:Don’t be afraid; don’t pay any mind to this vandal horde. This is God’s war, not yours. Tomorrow you’ll go after them; see, they’re already on their way up the slopes of Ziz; you’ll meet them at the end of the ravine near the wilderness of Jeruel.You won’t have to lift a hand in this battle; just stand firm, Judah and Jerusalem, and watch God’s saving work for you take shape. Don’t be afraid, don’t waver. March out boldly tomorrow—God is with you.”This is God’s war, not mine. I am not to be afraid. I won’t have to lift a hand in this battle. I just need to stand firm. I need to watch God’s saving work for me take shape. I need to not be afraid. I need not to waver. I need to march boldly out. God is with me.Lord, forgive me of my sins. Cleanse my heart. Fill me with your righteousness and your peaceful hope. Let my heart sing your praises for you are saving me today. I don’t need to do the battling. I need to praise you.Thank you, Lord, for your greatness and your love. Thank you for your care for me and mine. Thank you for providing for me today. Today I will stand tall in your presence. I will march boldly out with your hand holding my hand. You are with me today.
