The Bible story

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. Read the whole story in 2 Chronicles 20:1–30 (KJV).

Memory verse: "And he said, Hearken ye, all Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem, and thou king Jehoshaphat, Thus saith the LORD unto you, Be not afraid nor dismayed by reason of this great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God’s." (2 Chronicles 20:15, KJV). It is printed on every level.
