* The battle with the Amalekites was the first battle since God destroyed the Egyptians in the Red Sea.

* Would He destroy them like he did the Egyptians?

* Yes, but He chose to do it through the people.

* So long as Moses prayed they won.

* Look at the three parts involved in this battle strategy:

* 1) God

* 2) Warriors

* 3) Prayer Warriors

* God was the One bringing victory but it required warriors and prayer warriors to bring about the ultimate victory.

* Note - Joshua’s faithfulness on the battlefield qualified him to lead the entire nation into the Promised Land.

* (vs 14) God wanted Joshua to hear the memorial.
