Today's verse give us a great clue for us to receive deliverance from the LORD.
The first and foremost condition for receiving deliverance from LORD is prepare the horse for the day of battle.
In olden days, horse was the main battle weapon. It is fast and swift and can break through enemies lines quickly and surprisingly.
Before the battle, the army prepares the horse, that is train them, make them stronger, feed them well, make sure their shoes are proper, so they have proper grip.
Symbolically it means that the armies of Israel first have to do their part in preparing for the battle and go out to fight the enemy.
And while they do that, LORD God will join them to fight along and gives them victory.
Likewise we too have to prepare the horse for battle.
Horse is our soul, emotions, mind. When we spend time in God's word and in prayer and excercise God given authority and walk in love,
we prepare our horse for battle and God will then fight along with us and give us victory.
Don't give up, prepare your horse. Victory is yours, because Lord is on your side.
