He said: LORD, God of our ancestors, are you not the God who is in heaven, and do you not rule over all the kingdoms of the nations? Power and might are in your hand, and no one can stand against you.Are you not our God who drove out the inhabitants of this land before your people Israel and who gave it forever to the descendants of Abraham your friend?They have lived in the land and have built you a sanctuary in it for your name and have said,“ If disaster comes on us— sword or judgment, pestilence or famine— we will stand before this temple and before you, for your name is in this temple. We will cry out to you because of our distress, and you will hear and deliver.”Now here are the Ammonites, Moabites, and the inhabitants of Mount Seir. You did not let Israel invade them when Israel came out of the land of Egypt, but Israel turned away from them and did not destroy them.Look how they repay us by coming to drive us out of your possession that you gave us as an inheritance.Our God, will you not judge them? For we are powerless before this vast number that comes to fight against us. We do not know what to do, but we look to you.All Judah was standing before the LORD with their dependents, their wives, and their children.

King Hezekiah and the prophet Isaiah son of Amoz prayed about this and cried out to heaven,and the LORD sent an angel who annihilated every valiant warrior, leader, and commander in the camp of the king of Assyria.

“ When you go out to war against your enemies and see horses, chariots, and an army larger than yours, do not be afraid of them, for the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, is with you.When you are about to engage in battle, the priest is to come forward and address the army.He is to say to them,‘ Listen, Israel: Today you are about to engage in battle with your enemies. Do not be cowardly. Do not be afraid, alarmed, or terrified because of them.For the LORD your God is the one who goes with you to fight for you against your enemies to give you victory.’

The LORD said to Joshua,“ Do not be afraid or discouraged. Take all the troops with you and go attack Ai. Look, I have handed over to you the king of Ai, his people, city, and land.Treat Ai and its king as you did Jericho and its king, except that you may plunder its spoil and livestock for yourselves. Set an ambush behind the city.”So Joshua and all the troops set out to attack Ai. Joshua selected thirty thousand of his best soldiers and sent them out at night.He commanded them,“ Pay attention. Lie in ambush behind the city, not too far from it, and all of you be ready.Then I and all the people who are with me will approach the city. When they come out against us as they did the first time, we will flee from them.They will come after us until we have drawn them away from the city, for they will say,‘ They are fleeing from us as before.’ While we are fleeing from them,you are to come out of your ambush and seize the city. The LORD your God will hand it over to you.After taking the city, set it on fire. Follow the LORD’s command— see that you do as I have ordered you.”

They will go against Midian to inflict the LORD’s vengeance on them.Send one thousand men to war from each Israelite tribe.”So one thousand were recruited from each Israelite tribe out of the thousands in Israel— twelve thousand equipped for war.Moses sent one thousand from each tribe to war. They went with Phinehas son of Eleazar the priest, in whose care were the holy objects and signal trumpets.

Then Zerah the Cushite came against them with an army of one million men and three hundred chariots. They came as far as Mareshah.So Asa marched out against him and lined up in battle formation in Zephathah Valley at Mareshah.Then Asa cried out to the LORD his God,“ LORD, there is no one besides you to help the mighty and those without strength. Help us, LORD our God, for we depend on you, and in your name we have come against this large army. LORD, you are our God. Do not let a mere mortal hinder you.”So the LORD routed the Cushites before Asa and before Judah, and the Cushites fled.

and then sent you on a mission and said,‘ Go and completely destroy the sinful Amalekites. Fight against them until you have annihilated them.’

Now go and attack the Amalekites and completely destroy everything they have. Do not spare them. Kill men and women, infants and nursing babies, oxen and sheep, camels and donkeys.’”

But I have chosen Jerusalem so that my name will be there, and I have chosen David to be over my people Israel.”

After the death of Joshua, the Israelites inquired of the LORD,“ Who will be the first to fight for us against the Canaanites?”The LORD answered,“ Judah is to go. I have handed the land over to him.”

“ Moses my servant is dead. Now you and all the people prepare to cross over the Jordan to the land I am giving the Israelites.I have given you every place where the sole of your foot treads, just as I promised Moses.Your territory will be from the wilderness and Lebanon to the great river, the Euphrates River— all the land of the Hittites— and west to the Mediterranean Sea.No one will be able to stand against you as long as you live. I will be with you, just as I was with Moses. I will not leave you or abandon you.
