"So here is what you are to tell my servant David: The God-of-the Angel-Armies has this word for you…I'm going to conquer all your enemies.”
In your love, you were patient with them for many years. You sent your Spirit, who warned them through the prophets. But still they wouldn’t listen! So once again you allowed the peoples of the land to conquer them.
Lead me in the right path, O Lord, or my enemies will conquer me. Make your way plain for me to follow.
“But as soon as they were at peace, your people again committed evil in your sight, and once more you let their enemies conquer them. Yet whenever your people turned and cried to you again for help, you listened once more from heaven. In your wonderful mercy, you rescued them many times!”
They did not conquer the land with their swords; it was not their own strong arm that gave them victory. It was your right hand and strong arm and the blinding light from your face that helped them, for you loved them.
A person standing alone can be attacked and defeated, but two can stand back-to-back and conquer. Three are even better, for a triple-braided cord is not easily broken.
1 Chronicles 17:7 Nehemiah 9:30 Psalm 5:8 Nehemiah 9:28 Psalm 44:3 Ecclesiastes 4:12
We conquer by continuing our trust in God.
