Psalm 46:8 Come, behold the works of the Lord,Who has wrought desolations in the earth.

9 He makes wars to cease to the end of the earth; He breaks the bow and cuts the spear in two; He burns the chariots with fire. 10 Cease striving and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.”

KNOW HB - Yada "yada" often implies a deep, personal, and relational knowledge, such as the intimate relationship between God and His people or between individuals… a personal knowing built on the presence of time. A knowledge based on deeply knowing and experiencing that relationship. 

*how well you know your spouse from dating to mating to hating to celebrating - 

Psalm 20

1 Now I know that the Lord saves His anointed;

7 Some boast in chariots and some in horses,

BOAST - HB - Zaw-Kar 

To bring up from deep remembrance 

*IT WAS BURIED DEEP INSIDE OF YOU FROM TIME PAST IN YOUR LIFE, AND NOW YOU PULL IT UP AND RUMINATE ON IT, BOAST ON IT

A King will count his chariots and horses going into battle

We will call up who God is to us in the deep 

Knowing he’s there when he is not seen. Elisha  2 Kings 6:16

(Show the servant who is on our side - Elisha does not see it - He just knows it)

How did Elisha get there? TO KNOW WITHOUT SEEING???

2 Kings 2 Elisha proves his loyalty to Elijah… He won’t leave him. He wants his influence.

Vs. 9 what do you want?

I want a double portion of your spirit.

Portion HB - Mouth - literally your speech

I want twice as much as what you have in your mouth
