From Spurgeon's "Faith's Check Book"095-God's Hornets |
"And I will send hornets before thee, which shall drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and
the Hittite, from before thee."
(Exodus 23:28) What the hornets were we need not consider. They were God's own army which He sent before His
people to sting their enemies and render Israel's conquest easy. Our God by His own chosen means
will fight for His people and gall their foes before they come into the actual battle. Often He
confounds the adversaries of truth by methods in which reformers themselves have no hand. The
air is full of mysterious influences which harass Israel's foes. We read in the Apocalypse that
"the earth helped the woman." Let us never fear. The stars in their courses fight against the enemies of our souls. Often
times when we march to the conflict we find no host to contend with. "The Lord shall fight for
you, and ye shall hold your peace." God's hornets can do more than our weapons. We could never
dream of the victory being won by such means as Jehovah will use. We must obey our marching
orders and go forth to the conquest of the nations for Jesus, and we shall find that the Lord
has gone before us and prepared the way; so that in the end we will joyfully confess, "His own
right hand and his holy arm, have gotten him the victory."
