The people of Judah, including women and children came from every town. Jehoshaphat stood before them at the temple in Jerusalem and prayed.

Question 9 of 15
9. Question
Yes, when we trust the Lord, follow His lead, and use the armor and spiritual weapons He has given us, a glorious victory awaits us.
PRINCIPLE #2: Although the battle is actually fought in the heavenlies, what we do on earth has powerful influence
What a strange way to fight a war! Once again, we must remember that we are not called upon to fight a natural war, but a spiritual war. In this war we are to use spiritual weapons. Looking back over the story of King ehoshaphat, let’s s review some of the things Jehoshaphat and his army did.

10. Question
PRINCIPLE #3: Our praise enthrones God
Let’s take a special look at praise. Throughout the Bible we find God’s people praising Him by shouting, singing, crying, by laughter, speaking in tongues, clapping, using musical instruments, by dancing, leaping, bowing down, kneeling, and lifting of hands.
Why so many different forms of praise? What’s so special about praise?
The Scripture: Psalm 22:3 (NKJV)
“But You are holy, who inhabit the praises of Israel.”
14. What does God do?

Question 11 of 15
11. Question
Some versions of the Bible translate the word inhabit as “enthrone.” In other words, our praises place God on a throne, exalt Him to a position where He can better act on our behalf. Praise, accompanied by worship, is one of our most important spiritual weapons.
Let’s remind ourselves of another important principle of spiritual warfare.
PRINCIPLE #4: A vast spiritual army is fighting in the heavenlies where the real battle takes place
The Scripture: Ephesians 6:12
“Our struggle is…in the heavenly realms.”

Question 12 of 15
12. Question
The Bible gives us some insight into this in the book of Daniel. The prophet Daniel had been praying for three weeks, but nothing had happened. Then an angel appeared.
The Scripture: Daniel 10:12-14
“Do not be afraid, Daniel. Since the first day that you set your mind to gain understanding and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard, and I have come in response to them. But the prince of the Persian kingdom resisted me twenty-one days. Then Michael, one of the chief princes, came to help me…Now I have come to explain to you what will happen to your people in the future.”
16. When had Daniel’s prayers first been heard?
17. Why had the angel not come sooner?

Question 14 of 15
14. Question
You will remember from previous lessons that Michael leads Christ’s army. This scripture explains why the answers to our prayers are sometimes delayed.
Another scene from the Old Testament gives us a glimpse into this spiritual army of God.
The Scripture: 2 Kings 6:15-17
“When the servant of the man of God got up and went out early the next morning, an army with horses and chariots had surrounded the city. ‘Oh, my lord, what shall we do?’ the servant asked. ‘Don’t be afraid,’ the prophet answered. ‘Those who are with us are more than those who are with them.’ And Elisha prayed, ‘O Lord, open his eyes so he may see.’ Then the Lord opened the servant’s eyes, and he looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.”
19. What did the servant call Elisha’s attention to?
20. What was Elisha’s answer?
21. After Elisha prayed, what did the servant see?

Question 15 of 15
15. Question
For a brief moment Elisha’s servant was able to see what his master had already seen in the spirit—a great spiritual army which was far greater than the earthly army surrounding the city. What a wonderful picture for us to keep in mind as we enter into battles that seem impossible for us to win—those who are with us are more than those who are with them.
PRINCIPLE #5: Spiritual warfare does not always make sense to the natural mind
In spiritual warfare we are sometimes called to do things that don’t make sense to us. We may never know what happens during spiritual warfare this side of heaven, but what we see is only a small part of what is actually going on, and obedience to seemingly foolish commands can play an important role in our warfare.
Could ever a people be given a more “foolish” set of instructions than those given to the Israelites in the taking of Jericho? After the Lord had brought the Israelites out of Egypt, after their spending forty years in the wilderness, and after the death of Moses, the Lord brought his people to the edge of the Promised Land which he had promised would be theirs. When they reached the city of Jericho, he promised them he would deliver Jericho into their hands.
The Scripture: Joshua 6:3-5
“March around the city once with all the armed men. Do this for six days. Have seven priests carry trumpets of rams’ horns in front of the ark. On the seventh day march around the city seven times, with the priests blowing the trumpets. When you hear them sound a long blast on the trumpets, have all the people give a loud shout; then the walls of the city will collapse and the people will go up, every man straight in.”
22. What were the people commanded to do?
23. What would happen next?
When Joshua and the Israelites followed the Lord’s instructions, the walls did fall down and Jericho fell into their hands.
In the history of the Israelites, we have occasion after occasion when the instructions for fighting did not seem to make sense in the natural but resulted in victory for the Israelites: In their fight against the Amalikites, Moses was told to stand at the top of a hill, his arms raised, with the staff of God in his hand while Joshua and his troops fought the physical battle. As long as Moses raised the staff of God, the Israelites prevailed. In the capture of the city of Ai, Joshua was told to hold his javelin out toward the city while his men battled. Ai fell into their hands.
Gideon was told to fight the Midianites with an army reduced to 300 men. Their weapons? Trumpets and empty jars with torches inside. When the men blew their trumpets, broke the jars, and cried, “A sword for the Lord and for Gideon,” the enemy troops fought against themselves and fled.
Again and again, although the strategy differed, we see God instructing the earthly armies in ways that seem strange to us but result in victory. When we put our entire faith in the Lord and are obedient to his military strategy even though we don’t understand it, then the Lord will do battle for us.
As soldiers in the Lord’s army, we have been given the job of enforcing Christ’s victory on earth. While Jesus and his heavenly forces battle in the heavenlies, let us fight our battle with confidence, knowing we have the Lord’s authority and the powerful weapons He has issued to us.
