The Daily Word of Righteousness
The Warrior's Prayer, #14
At the brightness that was before him his thick clouds passed, hail stones and coals of fire (verse twelve).
God is surrounded by the brightness of His own glory. But His brightness is concealed behind thick clouds. As God begins to respond to the warrior's prayer, hailstones and coals of fire come from the Divine brightness and pour through the clouds.
It helps us fight onward to total victory when we realize God is punishing and afflicting our enemies. The prayers of the saints bring suffering upon the forces of darkness that would deceive us and rob us of the Presence of the Lord.
Our enemies do not remain unscathed when we call upon the Lord. They face an angry Lord of Armies who fights against them on behalf of the righteous.
Hailstones are a weapon which the Lord uses in the day of battle. They reveal His indignation.
And it came to pass, as they fled from before Israel, and were in the going down to Bethhoron, that the Lord cast down great stones from heaven upon them unto Azekah, and they died: they were more which died with hailstones than they whom the children of Israel slew with the sword. (Joshua 10:11)
Hast thou entered into the treasures of the snow? or hast thou seen the treasures of the hail, Which I have reserved against the time of trouble, against the day of battle and war? (Job 38:22,23)
Sometimes the enemy is within our own personality.
To be continued.
