“The Lord does not save with sword and spear; for the battle is the Lord’s…” I Samuel 17:47 (NKJV)
These words are still true today, even when there seems to be so much injustice and evil on the earth and we feel the need to wage war against it. The natural mind says we need to know all there is to know about our enemies so that we can be good soldiers, better equipped for the fight. But, the earth is not waiting for good soldiers to be revealed; it is waiting…standing on tip-toe…for sons who will manifest the glory of Yahweh in every situation. Our weapons are rest, joy, peace - with the praises of God ever on our lips. The battle is the Lord’s. Lay down the sword, stay out of range of the fight, and let His presence be enough.
