Finding strength in numbers


Spiritual insight:

In a battle of what could have been a defeat to a city of Israel, Joab found him self out numbered. So he split the Army in half and gave command to his brother Abishai who lined up in battle formation to engage the Ammonites. Joab said this to his brother, 2 Samuel 10:11,12 If the Aramenas are to strong for me, then you will be my help. However, if the Ammonites are too strong for you, I'll come to help you. Be Strong! We must prove ourselves strong for our poeple and for the cities of our God. May the LORD's will be done.

Application to my life

I want to be an encouragement to someone today. Not just in my individual life, but as I fight in a war against the devil, we need each other to come and help as we fight!

Prayer

Father, I want to be an encouragement to someone who needs help today. I pray my words will be your words to help others to be strong. In Jesus name. Amen.
