exodus 14:14....the lord will fight for you..you only need to be still.
when the lord wants to fight for you, He does not want you to fight! he wants you to be still and know that He is God. there is a point of dependence that God requires of us.and when we show God that we want Him to fight for us, He comes out through for us. we have battles in life and some times we fight on our own, we cannot win these battles unless we acknowledge the ability of God to fight for us. God does not fight physically ,He fights spiritually and when He fights, He wins, the bible says that it is not by might, not by power but by the spirit of God, before we win battles in the physical, that means we've already won them in the spiritual, some times we may get weary and be hard hit by the enemy but that does not mean we've lost the battle, because His strength is perfected in our weaknesses.(2nd corithians12:9) when we are weak,God remains strong, He is the same yesterday, today and forever. the bible says that when i look up to the hills, where does my help come from?...my help comes from the lord God almighty(psalms 121). Samson in the book of judges was anointed to fight and defend the israelites against the philistines, Samson reached a point of living in sin and failing to acknowledge the saving power of God. as a result, he was defeated by his enemies. but Samson amidst all this asked God to give him one more chance against his adversaries, God restored Him and he dismantled the temple in which he was held captive. Samson died with his enemies. Samson at his point of defeat acknowledged that only God would help Him, when you have such confidence that God will help you at your point of need, we challenge God to come and fight on our behalf and guess what....He wins and when He wins, we win!
