This Generous God
The Story of Jehoshaphat’s Victory
In the annals of biblical history, numerous stories illustrate God’s generosity and intervention in the lives of His people. One such compelling narrative is that of King Jehoshaphat and the miraculous victory over the armies of Moab, Ammon, and others as recounted in 2 Chronicles 20.
Faced with overwhelming odds, Jehoshaphat and all of Judah sought the Lord with earnest prayer and fasting. Jehoshaphat’s prayer in 2 Chronicles 20:6-12 acknowledges God’s sovereignty and their total dependence on Him, ending with the powerful declaration, “We do not know what to do, but our eyes are on you.” It was a heartfelt recognition of their helplessness without divine intervention.
God’s response through the prophet Jahaziel was reassuring: “Do not be afraid or discouraged because of this vast army. For the battle is not yours, but God’s” (2 Chronicles 20:15). Encouraged by this, Jehoshaphat and his people went out to face their enemies, only to find that they had turned on each other, leaving Judah to collect the spoils without fighting.
This story is a testament to God’s generosity and willingness to fight our battles when we put our trust in Him. It reminds us that even when we face insurmountable challenges, our God is greater and more than capable of delivering us.
