Discipling in Righteousness

In this last chapter of Jehoshaphat's reign, he and his people are trained in righteousness. We are often taught in the Scriptures to fast and pray as well as to praise the Lord. Jehoshaphat and all in Judah were driven to humble themselves before the Lord when they faced a difficult challenge: armies of three nations were coming against them. This becomes a model for us to humble ourselves before the Lord so that we may be trained in righteousness.
