2Sa 22:40 For You have armed me with strength for the battle; you have subdued under me those who rose against me.<\/p>\n
This are some of the words of David’s song which he sang after God gave him victory over all his enemies. He must have realized that it was not his fighting skills that helped him subdue his enemies. Although he was surrounded by death on every side, God armed him with strength for battle.<\/p>\n
The danger from which he was delivered was great and threatening. On one side, Philistines hated him and were all out hunting for him with the soul purpose of eliminating him. On the other side, Saul was vigorously and violently tracking him. But God subdued all those who rose against him.<\/p>\n
Christian friends, it is God who arm’s us with the strength for battle. Pro 21:31 The horse is prepared for the day of the battle, but deliverance is of the Lord. Psa 45:5 Through you we push back our enemies, through your name we trample our foes.<\/p>\n
