Deuteronomy 33:29
v. 29: Israel is also well protected and armed. God is their shield and their sword. He keeps them safe from attacks and helps them succeed in battle. God’s word and faith are the armor for all believers (Ephesians 6:16-17 a). God promises victory over enemies. They shall be found liars unto thee, meaning the enemies will be forced to submit, even if they do not want to. Israel will tread upon their high places, showing complete victory, just as Joshua did (Joshua 10:24 b). In the end, God will also defeat spiritual enemies for His people, as Paul writes: The God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly (Romans 16:20 c). When we look at all these blessings together, we understand why Moses says, Happy art thou, O Israel! Who is like unto thee, O people! Israel is truly blessed because the Lord is their God.
