The Arm of Flesh
Be strong and courageous, be not afraid nor dismayed for the king of Assyria, nor for all the multitude that is with him: for there be more with us than with him:
With him is an arm of flesh; but with us is the LORD our God to help us, and to fight our battles. And the people rested themselves upon the words of Hezekiah king of Judah.
(2 Chronicles 32:7,8)
The enemy of God's people is a liar. The devil is a liar from the beginning. Jesus said so:
...When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. (John 8:44)
The devil will always try to rock the faith of God's people by showing us that we are a minority. He tries to deceive us into believing that all strength and power is his.
But we can rest assured that for all his followers, for all the scoffers - we are on the victory side. With us to fight for us is the Lord our God.
The devil and his arm of flesh will always fail. The Lord and His mighty power will always prevail.
