UNDER GODS COMMAND

Judges 5.8 – When they chose new gods, war came to the city gates, and not a shield or spear was seen among forty thousand in Israel. 

War was the inevitable result when Israel chose to follow false gods.  Although God had given Israel clear directions, the people failed to put his words into practice.  Without God at the center of their national life, pressure from the outside soon became greater than power from within, and they were an easy prey for their enemies.

Lets bring it home: If you are letting a desire for recognition, craving for power, or love of money rule your life, you may find yourself besieged by enemies-stress, anxiety, illness, fatigue.  Keep God at the center of your life, and you will have the power you need to fight these destroyers.
