2 Chronicles 20:22 [Contemporary English Version]
‘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!’

Arthur Blessit is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as making “The World’s Longest Walk.”
For 56 years, Arthur has carried the Cross around the world through 324 countries.
While he is welcomed and celebrated in most cities, in some other places he has faced hostility and even close calls with death. One of such cities was the predominantly Muslim city of Tetouan in Morocco. When Arthur walked into the town, hundreds of people who saw him carrying the cross, filled with hatred and rage, began throwing stones at him, and hitting him with long sticks. Arthur’s team, which usually trailed him in a Land Rover, on seeing the dangerous situation yelled at him to drop the cross and run into the car so they could escape. But Arthur screamed back, “No, go on. If I make it, praise the Lord! If I don’t, praise Him anyway!”
As a part of the crowd chased after the vehicle, the driver took off out of sight, and Arthur faced the mob alone. Believing they were about to kill him, he decided to die while preaching and so preached right in the faces of his attackers.
As they were beating him, suddenly, two men came out from a building and began screaming at the crowd. As the crowd screamed back and there was momentary confusion, Arthur felt the Holy Spirit tell him to immediately leave the place. As he walked right through the crowd, it was as if the people could no longer see him. No one came after him as he walked away. Arthur eventually located his team in the Land Rover waiting for him, and they continued the journey to other towns.
It is remarkable that when faced with death, Arthur said, ‘If I make it, praise the Lord! If I don’t, praise Him anyway!”
An expression of such confidence in God will always attract the supernatural help and deliverance of the Holy Spirit.
God is our ever present help in trouble. As we trust Him, He stops the mouth of the lions and disappoints the devices of the crafty, so that their hands can not perform their enterprise.[Job 5:12-14].
If you are facing any kind of evil gang-up or plot against you, keep your trust in God. As you do, the Holy Spirit will hide you from the secret counsel of the wicked and from the insurrection of the workers of iniquity (Psalms 64:2).
In 2 Chronicles 20, as mightier armies ganged up against King Jehoshaphat and his people it appeared there was no way of escape. But when they set themselves to praise God, their situation miraculously changed. God sent confusion into the camp of their enemies and turned their battlefield into the Valley of Berachah. Beracha means “blessings.” This was the name they gave the battleground because it took them three days to gather all the spoils of war!
Certainly, God is fearful in praises. An atmosphere of worship and praise will always attract the Holy Spirit for our miraculous help and deliverance. Therefore today, let us endeavor to spend quality time fellowshipping, worshipping and loving Him. As we do, we shall experience His speedy intervention and supernatural help in every area of our need.
PRAYER: Lord, please grant me the grace to worship and praise You acceptably today. I thank You in advance for the ‘fearful’ and ‘tearful’ testimonies You are bringing into my life even right now in Jesus Name.
