2 Chron 20:5-12 Jehoshaphat stood in the assembly of Judah & Jerusalem, in the house of the LORD, before the new court, & said, “O LORD, God of our fathers, are you not God in heaven? You rule over all the kingdoms of the nations. In your hand are power & might, so that none is able to withstand you. Did you not, our God, drive out the inhabitants of this land before your people Israel, & give it forever to the descendants of Abraham your friend? & they have lived in it & have built for you in it a sanctuary for your name, saying, ‘If disaster comes upon us, the sword, judgment, or pestilence, or famine, we will stand before this house & before you—for your name is in this house—& cry out to you in our affliction, & you will hear & save.’ & now behold, the men of Ammon & Moab & Mount Seir, whom you would not let Israel invade when they came from the land of Egypt, & whom they avoided & did not destroy— behold, they reward us by coming to drive us out of your possession, which you have given us to inherit. O our God, will you not execute judgment on them? For we are powerless against this great horde that is coming against us. We do not know what to do, but our eyes are on you.” — No matter what, keep your eyes on Him! Praise God! Love Mel
