Judg 4:6 | MHM | STEP | v. 6-7 : Deborah planned Israel’s rescue by giving instructions from God to Barak, a leader from the tribe of Naphtali. Barak had a good reputation as a fighter against their enemies, but he needed a clear command from God. Deborah told him that God had chosen him to lead an army of 10,000 men from Naphtali and Zebulun. She told him where to gather the troops—at Mount Tabor. God promised to bring Sisera, the enemy general, to fight there so that Barak could win. Even though Sisera had many soldiers and iron chariots, God said, I will deliver them into your hand (Judges 4:7 ). Deborah’s message helped Barak trust that God would help them win, even against such a strong enemy. God’s power would be clear because He would make the enemy come to the exact place He chose, just as He said (Micah 4:11-12; Isaiah 8:9 ; Revelation 19:17-18 ).
