Joshua 6:13 The seven priests carrying the seven trumpets went forward, marching before the ark of the LORD and blowing the trumpets. The armed men went ahead of them and the rear guard followed the ark of the LORD, while the trumpets kept sounding.
When you are facing a battle, God sends you people and reveals His plans. Our job is to accept His divine appointments and obey His plans. It is also our job to blow the trumpet, which is to declare God's promises of victory, over and over again until the words settle in our hearts and our faith increases.
Today, look for bible verses that declare God's victory over your battles. If you are wrestling with debt, read and declare Deuteronomy 8 over your finances. If you are consumed with fear, declare 2 Timothy 1:7 until your anxiety wanes. If you are fighting off temptation, declare 1 Corinthians 10:13 until the craving withers. Magnify the Lord, and declare His words and power over your battle today.
