Verses 4-5 “When you, Lord, went out from Seir,
    when you marched from the land of Edom,
the earth shook, the heavens poured,
    the clouds poured down water.
5 The mountains quaked before the Lord, the One of Sinai,
    before the Lord, the God of Israel.

Why it Jumped Out

God moves Mightily. In this instance, God atmospherically defeated Israel’s enemies. He poured down water upon Israel’s enemies to drown, stagnate and hinder the enemies of God. Their fast chariots could not even be used against Israel as planned. 

How this changes my life

  • I dislike suffering. I hate violence and harm, especially when it is unnecessary. But, while it is seemingly easier to physically war against foes, I have learned, it is better to pray, trust and ask God to avenge my enemies.  This Scripture reminds me of the mountains and enemies that God has invisibly dismantled before me. I believe this is every child of God’s fate. That no weapon formed against us, His Body, shall prosper, and that the Gates of Hell shall not prevail against Her. 

Prayer

  • Father, thank you for your Holy Word which fulfills many purposes. Thank you that is at work within our hearts. I am glad Lord for the testimonies, songs, prophecies and experiences where you won wars for us. You are faithful. You are good. You are the Only Wise God. 

Amen.
