“And when Abram heard that his brother was taken captive, he armed his trained servants, born in his own house, three hundred and eighteen, and pursued them unto Dan.”
Genesis 14:14 KJV
When Abram heard that his nephew Lot had been taken captive by the four kings, he mobilized all the men in his camp, 318 in all who had been born and trained in his own household, and he pursued the invaders as far north as Dan. These were not only warriors but also disciples and trained ones of Abram. It was God Who supernaturally won this battle, for Abram was facing fierce and numerous tribal warriors. Abram realised that the battle would be won with God’s help. Abram was a noble man, he could have easily left Lot, who chose to live in Sodom, in the hands of his captors. Because of the blessing of Abraham upon our lives through Christ, in the New Covenant, we can overcome any impossible situation by faith. With God’s help, no challenge is insurmountable. For we are trained in the secret of overcoming all things, whether in fullness or in hunger. And we find that the strength of Christ’s explosive power infuses us to conquer every difficulty. Hallelujah!
