David’s great men were listed in 1 Chronicles. They were proved in battle, and had stories of conquest and victory which would rival any movie themes on TV today. Such was Benaiah who killed a lion in a pit on a snowy day. [1 Chron. 11:22]

Warriors still exist. New Testament Christians accept that “The weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but they are mighty through God to the tearing down of [spiritual] strongholds.”  [2 Cor.10:4,5] We rely upon prayer and praise to do our battle against ungodliness.

DAILY PRAYER: Lord, You are the Mighty One and You defeat our enemies as we call out to Your Name and give You praise.

DAILY READING: 1 Chron. 10-12
