a biblical look at The Art Of War. The Art of War is a systematic guide to strategy and tactics for rulers and commanders. The book discusses various maneuvers and the effect of terrain on the outcome of battles. It stresses the importance of accurate information about the enemy’s forces, dispositions and deployments, and movements. This is summarized in the axiom “Know the enemy and know yourself, and you can fight a hundred battles with no danger of defeat.” It also emphasizes the unpredictability of battle and the use of flexible strategies and tactics. The book’s insistence on the close relationship between political considerations and military policy greatly influenced some modern strategists. Mao Zedong and the Chinese communists took from The Art of War many of the tactics they utilized in fighting the Japanese and, later, the Chinese Nationalists.
Now let us take those military principals of Sun-Tzu and apply it to the greatest opponent you will ever encounter...the devil. http://www.bethgoyim.org/video....%20TRC/MTT/ART%20OF%
A DEFINING MOMENT Parts 1& 2
A DEFINING MOMENT - Grant Marshall
The Lord has impressed that we are in a defining moment. Something that is defined has been made definite. The Truth of God’s word is defined and it defines the order in the cosmos, of all things in heaven and on earth.,
We must not forget that there are not only wars here on earth, between the nations and the people; there are wars in the heavenlies between principalities who war over territories and the will of God.
In this war between Israel and Gaza, we must define some truth if not the whole truth. Hamas is not specifically a terrorist organisation, and neither is Hezbollah per se. Hamas in the spiritual context is a violent anti-Christ spirit that has embodied the enemies of God.
Part 2
A DEFINING MOMENT - Part 2
Quite some years ago, I heard some words in a song. They went something like this: ’ Because we say amen, it does not mean our conversation has to end’. Those words echo in my mind time and again. When we pray, we often expect to hear something from the Lord there and then. But prayer is fundamentally the place of requisition and petition. Once we have finished the formal part of the conversation with the Lord, we then have to be patient and listen. The answer may tally or it may come sooner. The important thing is to be in constant communication.
