THE LORD OF HOSTS WITH A FEW GOOD MEN
30- “And Caleb stilled the people before Moses, and said, Let us go up at once, and possess it; for we are well able to overcome it. 31- But the men that went up with him said, We be not able to go up against the people; for they are stronger than we. 32- And they brought up an evil report of the land which they had searched unto the children of Israel, saying, The land, through which we have gone to search it, is a land that eateth up the inhabitants thereof; and all the people that we saw in it are men of a great stature. 33- And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight.”
I’ve written a song few years ago and I hope you will like the message of it. The message of the song has something to do with what we will be studying about. The title of the song is
The Lord of Hosts
“In every odd of life, there is mercy, We take the step of faith in His grace, Giving Him our pain and sorrow, Trusting Him of our tomorrow; Jesus gives us rest beyond compare.
God prepares our heart for His glory, As we humbly take up His Cross, Serve and praise the King of glory, Tell of His great love story, Jesus came to die for you and me.
Jesus filled our heart with His Spirit, With His love and joy and perfect peace, We are more than over comers, In His power we are the victors, King of kings and He’s the Lord of Hosts, We are more than over comers, In His power we are the victors, King of kings and He’s the Lord of Hosts,
God is our God and He is the Lord of lords and the LORD of hosts. He is the one who is in charge of everything… In our battle with anything and with anyone if you have one as you serve Him especially as you stand against the wiles of the devil. God is our help and shelter. Paul said in the Book of (Romans 8:37) “Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.” What an encouragement and a promise for every believer who loves and served the LORD of hosts. God used Joshua, Caleb and Moses with the few good men, but God was with them. The Lord did that to Gideon and his 300 men.
The word “The Lord of Hosts was mentioned in the Bible in the Book of (I Samuel 1:3; 11) 3- “And this man went up out of his city yearly to worship and to sacrifice unto the LORD of hosts in Shiloh. And the two sons of Eli, Hophni and Phinehas, the priests of the LORD, were there. 11- And she vowed a vow, and said, O LORD of hosts, if thou wilt indeed look on the affliction of thine handmaid, and remember me, and not forget thine handmaid, but wilt give unto thine handmaid a man child, then I will give him unto the LORD all the days of his life, and there shall no razor come upon his head.”
