And the Syrians AGAIN fled before Israel, (II Samuel 10:18 ESV)
Again
I heard on the radio this week an announcer declaring how boring it has become to watch Alabama play college football. “They just win again, and again, and again!” He complained.
While I might disagree with his analysis, and while you might not care about college football, it did remind me of David’s wars. He won again, and again, and again.
Syrians, Philistines, Moabites, Ammonites, even Egyptians and rebels.
David won again.
Because David knew that David never won.
God won. Using David’s arm. Using David’s brain. Using David’s tactics. Using David’s mighty men. But it was always God.
Really, God wins again, and again, and again.
And we are on His side!
We are peculiar, we win again.
