Many people came and told Jehoshaphat

00:00:19.160 --> 00:00:23.060
that a vast army was approaching
to wage war against him.

00:00:23.060 --> 00:00:27.030
Alarmed by this news,
Jehoshaphat proclaimed

00:00:27.030 --> 00:00:29.120
a fast for all of Judah.

00:00:29.120 --> 00:00:31.960
People came from
every town in Judah

00:00:31.960 --> 00:00:34.350
to fast and pray together.

00:00:34.350 --> 00:00:37.580
We were part of a large group,
and Jehoshaphat

00:00:37.580 --> 00:00:40.970
was earnestly asking God
for assistance.

00:00:40.970 --> 00:00:44.420
Then a man called Jahaziel
stood up and said

00:00:44.420 --> 00:00:47.160
that Jehoshaphat
should not be concerned—

00:00:47.160 --> 00:00:50.290
that it was not his battle,
but God's battle.

[male speaker 2] It was early in the morning 
when we set out in the desert of Tekoa.

00:01:03.360 --> 00:01:07.200
We were seriously concerned
about facing this huge army,

00:01:07.200 --> 00:01:09.490
but we were told to have faith.

00:01:09.490 --> 00:01:11.760
We had also prayed.

without even having to fight.
