Observe the astonishing grace of the Lord manifested upon this occasion. It was instant, it was immediate; similar to that of Daniel's vision. At the beginning of the supplication, the commandment then came forth to Daniel. And here, while Jehoshaphat was speaking, the Lord answered. Daniel 9:19; Isaiah 65:24. And observe further, by whom did God vouchsafe to speak? - Even by a poor Levite, Jahaziel. The humblest instrument is sufficient, when the Lord is pleased to work. And remark further, how sure the promise is, Tomorrow shall bring forward their deliverance. And to decide from whom, and by whom the blessing comes; God himself will fight the battle for them; like another Moses, the direction is, Stand still and see the salvation of the Lord. Exodus 14:13.
