Chronicles records the men available to fight from the different families who fled Egypt. The Bible pays attention to these significant numbers as Israel’s ability to defend itself relied upon its men who were ready for war.

Today, we again find ourselves in a time where God’s fighting men are significant. Only, the weapons of our warfare are not carnal … guns, swords etc. … but they are spiritual … things like prayer, faith, preaching, praise. Now is a critical time for the Church to engage our enemies and press into God for spiritual conquest. God loves people. He wants them in His family.

PRAYER: Lord, You have equipped us with mighty spiritual weapons that can topple the enemy’s strongholds. Stir us to use them effectively.
