The Battles of the Old Testament provide vital spiritual principles for our livesas Christians. As we study the conflicts faced by the children of Israel, we findthat their victories were not dependent on military might or superiorweaponry, but on their faithfulness and trust in God. In many ways it was theirprayerful diligence that brought them success on the battlefield. Believerstoday are engaged in a spiritual warfare where trust and faithfulness to God’sWord are vital principles in their victory over the powers of darkness(Eph. 6:12).‘For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities,against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age,against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.’These brief studies on the Battles of the Old Testament do not includetopographical details, maps, or photographs of where the battles took place.Instead, the book focuses upon God’s timely interventions, and His love for apeople who were often disobedient and quick to forget how He had acted tosave them from destruction. Each battle has points of application andreflection for the reader. Included in this book are vital lessons that had to be learnt by God’s people – and still need to be learned by his people today!
