“And when the servants of Hadarezer saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, they made peace with David, and became his servants: neither would the Syrians help the children of Ammon any more.”
1 Chronicles 19:19 KJV
When all the kings who were vassals of Hadadezer saw that they had been routed by Israel, they made peace with David and served him. The Arameans were afraid to help the Ammonites ever again. God had promised David to establish him as king and God had promised Israel that He had chosen for His Presence to be with them. God faithfully kept His promise even when Israel was not faithful to Him. The enemies of Israel may gang up against it but God will preserve Israel because Jesus promised that He will come again. He said, ““And there will be signs in the sun, in the moon, and in the stars; and on the earth distress of nations, with perplexity, the sea and the waves roaring; men’s hearts failing them from fear and the expectation of those things which are coming on the earth, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken. Then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. Now when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption draws near.” Let’s keep looking to Jesus our Lord. Amen!
