Don’t be afraid or discouraged because of the king of Assyria or his mighty army, for there is a power far greater on our side!He may have a great army, but they are merely men. We have the Lord our God to help us and to fight our battles for us!” Hezekiah’s words greatly encouraged the people.

Some nations boast of their chariots and horses, but we boast in the name of the Lord our God.

The angel of the Lord appeared to him and said,“ Mighty hero, the Lord is with you!”

The Lord is for me, so I will have no fear. What can mere people do to me?

O our God, won’t you stop them? We are powerless against this mighty army that is about to attack us. We do not know what to do, but we are looking to you for help.”

All right then, the Lord himself will give you the sign. Look! The virgin will conceive a child! She will give birth to a son and will call him Immanuel( which means‘ God is with us’).

So these five Amorite kings combined their armies for a united attack. They moved all their troops into place and attacked Gibeon.The men of Gibeon quickly sent messengers to Joshua at his camp in Gilgal.“ Don’t abandon your servants now!” they pleaded.“ Come at once! Save us! Help us! For all the Amorite kings who live in the hill country have joined forces to attack us.”So Joshua and his entire army, including his best warriors, left Gilgal and set out for Gibeon.“ Do not be afraid of them,” the Lord said to Joshua,“ for I have given you victory over them. Not a single one of them will be able to stand up to you.”

By your messengers you have defied the Lord. You have said,‘ With my many chariots I have conquered the highest mountains— yes, the remotest peaks of Lebanon. I have cut down its tallest cedars and its finest cypress trees. I have reached its farthest heights and explored its deepest forests.I have dug wells in many foreign lands and refreshed myself with their water. With the sole of my foot, I stopped up all the rivers of Egypt!’

All these kings came out to fight. Their combined armies formed a vast horde. And with all their horses and chariots, they covered the landscape like the sand on the seashore.The kings joined forces and established their camp around the water near Merom to fight against Israel.Then the Lord said to Joshua,“ Do not be afraid of them. By this time tomorrow I will hand all of them over to Israel as dead men. Then you must cripple their horses and burn their chariots.”

Then the people of Israel cried out to the Lord for help.Deborah, the wife of Lappidoth, was a prophet who was judging Israel at that time.She would sit under the Palm of Deborah, between Ramah and Bethel in the hill country of Ephraim, and the Israelites would go to her for judgment.One day she sent for Barak son of Abinoam, who lived in Kedesh in the land of Naphtali. She said to him,“ This is what the Lord, the God of Israel, commands you: Call out 10,000 warriors from the tribes of Naphtali and Zebulun at Mount Tabor.And I will call out Sisera, commander of Jabin’s army, along with his chariots and warriors, to the Kishon River. There I will give you victory over him.”Barak told her,“ I will go, but only if you go with me.”“ Very well,” she replied,“ I will go with you. But you will receive no honor in this venture, for the Lord’s victory over Sisera will be at the hands of a woman.” So Deborah went with Barak to Kedesh.

Live here as a foreigner in this land, and I will be with you and bless you. I hereby confirm that I will give all these lands to you and your descendants, just as I solemnly promised Abraham, your father.
