Introduction
The Christian life is a battle to some extent, but
thanks be to God, “the weapons of our warfare are powerful, they are mighty to
the pulling down of strongholds “ – 2 Cor 10: 3-5.
We have learnt that Praise and Worship is one of the
weapons in our warfare. When Christians begin to offer praise to God it
produces an aroma that arises in the very throne of God. When we worship, we
invite His presence into our situation and circumstances.

Conclusion
Jehoshaphat, like us,
was faced with very terrible situation. He was afraid though, but he knew where
to go for strength i.e. prayer.
In his prayers the
Lord gave him the battle plan, through praises. It does not sound proper to
handle a physical war with praises but that was the direction of the Lord.
Certainly, Jehoshaphat had victory through praises.
When Christians are
faced with challenging problems, we must remember, praise and worship is a
powerful too for victory.
