The story in a nutshell
When a great multitude of Moab and Ammon came against Jehoshaphat, he feared, set himself to seek the LORD and proclaimed a fast, and prayed, "neither know we what to do: but our eyes are upon thee." The Spirit of the LORD came upon Jahaziel, who said, "the battle is not yours, but God's." Jehoshaphat appointed singers to go out before the army, and "when they began to sing and to praise, the LORD set ambushments" against the enemies. Judah came back to Jerusalem with joy, for the LORD had made them to rejoice.
