The chariots of God are tens of thousands and thousands of thousands; the Lord has come from Sinai into his sanctuary.

—Ps 68:17

• See also 2 Kgs 6:8–17.

• The chariots of old were the tanks of modern warfare. Infantrymen respect the advantage tanks give on the battlefield.

• If we were to talk about God’s might in military terms, we would need to replace chariots not with tanks but with the most technologically-advanced weapons system known to man. God is the only military super-power.

• Reflect on the Almighty power of God and praise the One whose power protects and keeps us.

• Consider the Lord Jesus, who will one day judge and make war against all nations that wickedly oppose God, bringing final and complete justice. Astride a white horse, he will lead the armies of heaven to victory (Rev 19:11–21).
