Your enemies are in revolt, and those who hate you are rebelling.H341H1993H8130H5375H72183They are making secret plans against your people; they are plotting against those you protect.H6191H5475H5971H3289H68454"Come," they say, "let us destroy their nation, so that Israel will be forgotten forever."H559H3212H3582H1471H8034H3478H21425They agree on their plan and form an alliance against you:H3289H3162H3820H3772H12856the people of Edom and the Ishmaelites; the people of Moab and the Hagrites;H168H123H3459H4124H19057the people of Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek, and of Philistia and Tyre.H1381H5983H6002H6429H3427H68658Assyria has also joined them as a strong ally of the Ammonites and Moabites, the descendants of Lot.H804H3867H2220H1121H3876H55429Do to them what you did to the Midianites, and to Sisera and Jabin at the Kishon River.H6213H4080H5516H2985H5158H702810You defeated them at Endor, and their bodies rotted on the ground.H8045H5874H1828H12711Do to their leaders what you did to Oreb and Zeeb; defeat all their rulers as you did Zebah and Zalmunna,H7896H5081H6159H2062H5257H2078H675912who said, "We will take for our own the land that belongs to God."H559H4999H430H342313Scatter them like dust, O God, like straw blown away by the wind.H430H7896H1534H7179H6440H730714As fire burns the forest, as flames set the hills on fire,H784H1197H3293H3852H3857H2022H385715chase them away with your storm and terrify them with your fierce winds.H7291H5591H926H549216Cover their faces with shame, O LORD, and make them acknowledge your power.H4390H6440H7036H1245H8034H306817May they be defeated and terrified forever; may they die in complete disgrace.H954H926H5703H2659H618May they know that you alone are the LORD, supreme ruler over all the earth.H3045H8034H3068H5945H776

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
