1Sa 13:22 So it came about, on the day of battle, that there was neither sword nor spear found in the hand of any of the people who were with Saul and Jonathan. But they were found with Saul and Jonathan his son.
This can only be described as a sad state of affairs. The Israelites army could not face the Philistine army. The troops were quacking with fear . The Philistines rendered havoc Israel territories.
Not a soldier had a sword or spear in his hand, only Saul and Jonathan had them. Many were hiding in caves and thickets, among the rocks and in pits and cisterns. They did not even have a single blacksmith in Israel to make any weapons (1Sa 13:1-19).
Christian friends , that’s the tragedy of being powerless. If you are powerless, you will always be hiding from your enemies. You Will be impoverished physically, economically, spiritually and socially. Come out strongly and take the full armour of God.
Eph 6:10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Eph 6:11 Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
