The Battle Is the Lord’s. There is a spiritual battle going on between God and Satan (see the reading plan “The Great Battle”). There are also a lot of wars and battles going on between humans. And sometimes there is a clear connection between the two. This reading plan covers several Bible stories about earthly battles where the Lord was clearly involved.
This plan is designed to help you step into your God-given potential. It parallels the Israelites’ journey through the wilderness with our own journey of reaching our potential. You will discover how God can use both your unique gifts and failures to accomplish His divine work, how to overcome resistance and obstacles, and the value of being woven into the fabric of a community.
