Judges 5:3-5 Listen!

 3Listen, O kings! Give ear, O princes!

I will sing to the LORD;

I will sing praise to the LORD,

the God of Israel.

4O LORD, when You went out from Seir,

when You marched from the land of Edom,

the earth trembled, the heavens poured out rain,

and the clouds poured down water.

5The mountains quaked before the LORD,

the One of Sinai,

before the LORD,

the God of Israel.


Listen!

Deborah in her song recounts the battle over the chariots of iron by the hand of the Lord, the heavens poured out rain and the clouds poured down water ðŸ’¦ the earth trembled and the mountains quaked!


Seir and Edom are the same place; and these two expressions note the same thing, even God’s marching in the head of his people from Seir or Edom towards the land of Canaan.” (Poole)


When the Lord fights your battles!

Exodus 14:14 (ESV)

14 The Lord will fight for you, and you have only to be silent.”


2 Chronicles 20:17 (ESV)

17 You will not need to fight in this battle. Stand firm, hold your position, and see the salvation of the Lord on your behalf, O Judah and Jerusalem.’ Do not be afraid and do not be dismayed. Tomorrow go out against them, and the Lord will be with you.”


Psalm 20:7 (ESV)

7  Some trust in chariots and some in horses,

but we trust in the name of the Lord our God.


Do you trust in the name of the Lord?

Blessings
