FAITH CAPSULE: In the recording of the word of God are prescription that works against the enemy. 

2 Chronicles 20:1-21

What stages battle against existence in any area of life? 
It can be rest assured that there is a hiding place as a shield for deliverance. 
With hope in the word of God, deliverance and preservation will unfailingly answer against all battling existence in any area of life. 
The psalmist testifies, “You are my hiding place and my shield; I hope in Your word”. (Psalm 119:114) “Uphold me according to Your word, that I may live; and do not let me be ashamed of my hope.” (Psalm 119:116) 
The psalmist would not have testified if not truth.
The word of God is the power to deliver and preserve for one that will work the works of the word (which is to be living the word).
In the manual of life (the living word of God; the Bible) are all loaded manner of prescription that works against any force that is not of God.
However, if you search and work it out, the word of God that does not discriminate will answer for you.
Once, Jehoshaphat and his people prevailed in the face of challenge. 
2 Chronicles 20:1-3 documents, “It happened after this that the people of Moab with the people of Ammon, and others with them besides the Ammonites, came to battle against Jehoshaphat. Then some came and told Jehoshaphat, saying, “A great multitude is coming against you from beyond the sea, from Syria; and they are in Hazazon Tamar” (which is En Gedi). And Jehoshaphat feared, and set himself to seek the Lord, and proclaimed a fast throughout all Judah.”  
In the verses above, it is clear that the victory of Jehoshaphat was rooted in setting himself apart by seeking God in praying and fasting. 
Engaging in praying and fasting is waiting on God. 
It is not possible to wait on God and be a waste. 
God is faithful to honor His word, and the word testifies, “For since the beginning of the world Men have not heard nor perceived by the ear, nor has the eye seen any God besides You, Who acts for the one who waits for Him.” (Isaiah 64:4)
Going by the verse above, God is a God who acts for those who wait on Him. 
Jehoshaphat prayed and fasted with the understanding that he did not wait to waste. 
Jehoshaphat prayed the prayer that made his request known by reminding God (putting God to remember). 
He stated, “O Lord God of our fathers, are You, not God in heaven, and do You not rule over all the kingdoms of the nations, and in Your hand is there, not power and might so that no one is able to withstand You?” (2 Chronicles 20:6). 
One studying the word of God will identify prescriptions that have the power to deliver by reminding God.

Prayer for today: Ask by letting Him know that He alone is your deliverer in the face of a wicked world.
