King David took accounting of the military power of Israel, in 1 Chronicles 27. Because Israel was a tribal nation, meaning that it was composed of tribal family units, it made sense to count the military by tribe and clan. From our human perspective the more men of military age the stronger and more formidable the army. However, we’ve already read how God had used small
and outnumbered military forces to accomplish amazing feats. Think, for example, of Gideon and his 300 men back in Judges 7. The principal God teaches us through accounts like those is that it isn’t by human strength that evil is overcome, or that victory is had, rather, it comes by God’s will and strength. This truth applies directly to us as Christians: the battles that we fight
may be spiritual rather than physical, but they are won in the same way – through the strength of God Almighty, not by our number.

God's Way; 2 Chronicles 15-19
The Bible is the Word of God, it always tells the truth. In the Bible, we see many people who are not committed to the ways of the LORD, even though they had the opportunity to be. This ends up being the case with Asa king of ancient Judah. Judah began as a country after the split of ancient Isra...
