O our God, wilt thou not judge them? for we have no might against this great company that cometh against us; neither know we what to do: but our eyes are upon thee.
There are reasons why we may not know what to do.
Sometimes it is because we do not accept what it is we ought to do.
The nature of man doesn’t settle well with the Spirit of God. We wrestle between the two. We often do not know what to do because we do not want to do what we believe is the will of God to do.
Sometimes it is because the object before us seems to be overwhelming.
Jehoshaphat was in that place. The enemy’s forces were simply too great for him to devise a plan.
Sometimes it’s because God’s will for one is not the same as another.
God had forbidden Rehoboam from fighting against Israel but had helped his son in the same fight.
- Through the Word of God
- Through the man of God and then
- Through the house of God
We can know what to do if we are willing to accept the resources God has provided.
[1] 1 Chronicles 12:32 (KJV)
And of the children of Issachar, which were men that had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do; the heads of them were two hundred; and all their brethren were at their commandment.
