The Lord gave David victory over where he went.

1 Chronicles 18:1-17
The Lord gave David victory over where he went.
King David dedicated these articles to the Lord, as he had done with the silver and gold he had taken from all these nations: Edom and Moab, the Ammonites and the Philistines, and Amalek.
David reigned over all Israel, doing what was just and right for all his people.
These accounts are not in time order. The borders are pushed back: first to the west, then north and east.
Why?
 It is the Lord who helped David got victory over where he went. So David conquered his surrounding nations and all his enemies subdued to him.
David dedicated these articles which got from many nations, the plunder of the war, he dedicated these articles to the Lord.
David was doing just and right to his people, this is the right manner to a king.
The fight is not for ourselves but for the Lord's name.

人看見神的大能反感有兩種,亞蘭王心裏鋼硬,與David作戰結果敗了。哈馬王陀烏聽見就帶各樣禮物來問安。我們看見神的作為,人的反應也是有兩種,一種更鋼硬,一種順服且願意付代償、奉獻給神。
我們的敵人是內心的私慾及撒旦黑暗的權勢。當我們放下自己的私慾,改變自己讓神帶領我們,謙卑順服。神必幫助我們得勝。經歷主的帶領。

How?
Be humble and always follow the way of the Lord and obey his word, for God is good to me.
