Blessed are you, O Israel! Who is like you, a people saved by the LORD? He is your shield and helper and your glorious sword. Your enemies will cower before you, and you will trample down their high places.” - Deut. 33:29
The Children of Israel had it. They had it all. They had Moses and Joshua, great men, committed to leading an unruly, stubborn nation. They had the promised land laid out before them. They had God's blessing and his promise. They had an unbreakable covenant with the God of creation. Not only would the God of heaven and earth protect them, he would fight for them. He would be their shield and helper. They did not have to rely on their own power, the power of God was enough. He would slice their enemies to pieces. He would be their glorious sword.
