“When they began to sing, the Lord threw the invading armies into a panic.”           

  (2 Chronicles 20:22 GNT)

Singing, just singing, has many benefits. Singing as an act of praise and worship is powerful. “God inhabits the praises of his people”, Psalm 22:3 says.                            

Jehoshaphat and Judah defeated invading armies with audible songs and praises to God. In Acts 16:25-26, Paul and Silas prayed and sang hymns audibly to God and their chains fell off, the prison doors opened. Singing and praising God with prayers is a weapon of deliverance from captivity and provokes victory.

ACTION: Pray over any challenge with singing and praises to God now and anytime it comes to mind! SING!!!

PRAYER: Our Father, our trust is in You, our mighty Warrior. Please break the chains that hold us down and strengthen us to walk in Your purpose. As we pray and sing unto God, we shall receive victory for such a time as this!
