2 Chronicles 20:16,17
In the Christian community we use three meaningful terms to describe some of the attributes of God: omnipotence (all-powerful), omniscience (all-knowing), and omnipresence (all-present). Looking at these two verses today we can see these attributes at play. God never left his people to fight this war alone. He is with them every step of the way. These days let us encourage ourselves with how God worked in Jehoshaphat’s day.
They Are Not Marching Alone, the Omnipresence of God
Tomorrow march down against them. They will be climbing
up by the Pass of Ziz, and you will find them at the end of the
gorge in the Desert of Jeruel. Verse 16
They Are Not Fighting At All, the Omnipotence of God
You will not have to fight this battle. Take up your positions;
stand firm and see the deliverance the Lord will give you, . . . Verse 17a
They Are Not to be Afraid, the Omniscience of God
. . . Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged. Go out to face them
tomorrow, and the Lord will be with you. Verse 17b
