"You Can Run, But You Can’t Hide

Last week… we left off… with Israel standing on the edge… of one of the greatest victories in the entire Book of Judges. If you'll remember… God had already promised Barak the victory. So… he gathered ten thousand men… from Zebulun and Naphtali… and marched them up Mount Tabor. Meanwhile… Sisera assembled all nine hundred of his iron chariots… and positioned his army near the Kishon River…. exactly where God had promised Barak He would draw him. Then Deborah looked at Barak and said, "Move on, for this is the day the LORD has handed Sisera over to you. Hasn't the LORD gone before you?" (Judges 4:14, HCSB) And that's exactly what happened. The LORD… stepped onto the battlefield. • He sent the storm. • He flooded the Kishon River. • He removed the advantage… of Sisera's iron chariots. And Scripture tells us, "The LORD threw Sisera, all his charioteers, and all his army into confusion before Barak..." (Judges 4:15, HCSB) Folks... that's where we stopped. The battle had been won. The army had been broken. But there was one man... ONE MAN… who was still alive! And that's where we pick up tonight.
