Know your position

Know your position

2 Chron. 20:17

You shall not need to fight in this battle; [on your own]

SET YOURSELVES and STAND STILL, [#1 – take your position as if ready to engage in battle; hold your ground, and not give way in the least]

and see the salvation of the Lord Who is with you, O Judah and Jerusalem. [#2 – look for and believe in your deliverance]

Fear not nor be dismayed. [#3– understand your enemy fights against God and not against you, therefore God will fight for you in your battle]

Tomorrow go out against them, for the Lord is with you. [#4 – you’re going to participate in the battle but God knows your enemy’s strategy and He communicates this information to you for your advantage]

Pray the Word:

Lord, we would think that we didn’t even need to show up for the battle if You are going to be there. But, we see that to stand still and wait on You doesn’t mean to ‘do nothing’; i.e.; ‘just pray - God will do the rest’. You have commanded our participation in the battle, which is to hold steady our position and work in partnership with You. Guaranteed win!
