In a certain continent of the world that comprises of three countries; Nation A ,B & C. Nation C(OIL COUNTRY) was the least in terms of rate of development suddenly started dominating the general market with their oil.
The other countries (A&B) were good in technology and were doing well too in the technology world but the oil market is far more productive and profitable.
The hatred became too much on the OIL COUNTRY to the extent that the two nations (A&B) planned a coup against the Oil country. These two nations were good in the technology as well as dangerous weapons. They want to take over the other nation to be in possession of the oil running in their land. They wrote a letter to the oil nation to surrender their resources otherwise they would take it by force.
When this news got to the Oil nation, they marvelled and as well became scared because they knew that those nations are powerful when it comes to fight. They almost succumbed to their request but a well known Priest in the land charged them not to give in. He took it upon himself to intercede for the nation on the threat that behold their country. In one of his prayer sections, God appeared to him and gave him an uncommon revelation. God told him to tell the people that they should be calm, they should not be troubled, that he will single-handedly fight the battle for them. That all He(God) needs from them is just PRAISE. The priest understood the revelation very well and he related the revelation to the leaders of the country (his own country, the oil country), So when he opened up to the leaders of the country, they agreed and appointed People to oversee the praise organization.
The people in charge of the praise did a very good job, they organized all the top singers of the country and set a date for praise night and that date is the day other countries would be coming to demolished them.
At first;
When they announced the praise event, a lot of people in the country objected the process, they questioned the authority, "we are to be attacked by two dangerous Countries and instead of us to import weapons of war from other countries, we are importing equipments for dance event." With this effect, alot of People travelled out the country because they were scared to be killed.
On that faithful day, the people made all preparations, instruments were brought from other countries, the biggest stadium of the country was used.
It got to around 5pm, the event Started, they made sure that everyone available in the country were moved down to the stadium including those people that were not willing to join joined them, infact the emptied the country.
The event became hot and the people that were not ready to follow up suddenly started to feel the vibes from the events because top artists were performing their best tracks.
Around 9pm, they noticed that jets were flying on the air, countless numbers of Aeroplanes and that gave the priest a notice that their enemies were around already and ready to strike.
He quickly stopped the event to give a word of charge, and after his exhortation, they switched into realms of hot praises, everyone forgot their worries about the enemies, they were just enjoying the musicals and dancing away their sorrows, they we high in the Lord. In the sermon of the priest, he told them that God said He will fight the battle and the only means to call God down is by praises. They got the understanding and was praising God down with theri Melody, dance and shouts.
Then suddenly, they Started seeing flashes of fire on the air but they dare not go outside to really trace the destination of the fire from the Jets.
It was recorded that at that time of high praises, those nations turned against themselves started fighting themselves. How it happened? No one knew.
When it was Dawn, they came out of the stadium to see that they were lined up females and children looking shattered seeking to enter in to the stadium. They asked them where they are from and they told said that they were from the other countries that fought against them last night. That at that point when their People moved to the attack the oil country, a clash between the presidents of the two countries occured and they each gave order to demolish the other country...(I mean country A&B fought against themselves because of the clash between the two presidents) and those females and children were the one that managed to escape.
This is a biblical story from the book of Chronicles that I reframed.
The power in praise is sometimes unbelievable and unexplainable but undeniable
That nation was faced to battle two dangerous nations, instead of them import weapons of war, they imported instrument of praise because the priest explained it well to them about what God told him. They used the instrument of praise to cause confusion in the other countries camp and it made them to kill themselves.
These same thing could be applicable to your situation too, when a challenge steps in, challenge the challenge by inviting God through Thanksgiving.
It looks unbelievable but I tell you, it's undeniable because it happened. It wasn't a cook up story.
I'd take time to tell us more of benefits of praise.
Thanks for reading.
