The enemies of the Lord are around you; and you are now
required to take arms in your hands, to go out against them, and if
needs be to give your blood--nay your life for your country, your King,
and your Church.
"I greatly rejoice, my children, that you are an obedient people; I know
that you will now do your utmost, and I know that you will succeed. The
Lord will not desert His people when they combat for His glory, when
they faithfully turn to Him for victory. You have been taught how He
chose the Israelites as an especial people--how He loved and favoured
them: as long as they were faithful and obedient He never deserted them.
They conquered hosts ten times their numbers--they were victorious
against armed warriors, and mighty giants. The Lord blinded their
enemies so that they saw not; He blunted their weapons; He paralyzed
their courage; chariots and horses did not avail them; nor strong walls,
nor mighty men of battle. The Lord loved the Israelites, and as long as
they were faithful and obedient, they prevailed against all their
enemies.
