II Chronicles 20:22 ” As they began to sing and praise, the Lord set ambushes against the men of Ammon and Moab and Mount Seir who were invading Judah, and they were defeated.”

The Lord inhabits the praises of His people… praise takes our eyes off the circumstances and allows God to work. Jehoshaphat could have allowed fear and doubt to come in and place soldiers up front rather than the singers. But as the singers went ahead of the army saying – “Give thanks to the Lord, for His love endures forever.” The Lord began to move…He caused the enemy armies to turn on themselves and destroy each other. The most effective tool the Lord uses to break down such Strongholds is from the inside out. As the song by Ramey Whalen says…Our praises rise like a weapon in His hand.
