WHEN TREES FIGHT

Memorise: "For the battle was there scattered over the face of all the country: and the wood devoured more people that day than the sword devoured" (2 Sam 18:8)

Read: 2 Samuel 18:6-17

In Revelation 22:16, the link of the Lord Jesus with plants, vegetation and trees was established by His title Root of David. Another benefit of having Jesus as your root is that He can mobilize trees to fight for you. David was a beneficiary of this. In 2 Samuel 18:5-15, when Absalom revolted against his father and sought hard after his life, he thought he had everything. He really had all the details. He knew his father's strengths and weaknesses. He turned one of his father's greatest strengths - Ahithophel against him. The only missing aspect in his battle strategy was that he forgot that his Father had roots. That day, the Root of David simply mobilized all the trees in the bush and told them it was time to display their war talents as His army. Boy! You wouldn't believe how valiantly the trees fought human soldiers! 2 Samuel 18:8 puts it this way: "For the battle was there scattered over the face of all the country: and the wood devoured more people that day than the sword devoured".




It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the Root of David! Can you imagine trees tearing soldiers into pieces? Can you imagine branches becoming sharper and more dangerous than swords? One of the trees took Absalom and hung him by his hair. Since his father had asked for his life to be spared, the oak tree refused to kill him until some young men killed him there. Are you connected to the Root of David? Is He your root? Then He will mobilize His tree army to fight for you. Any of your oppressors that requires the services of a tree will have a dirge to sing. In addition, when connected to the Root of David, no charm made from leaves, the bark of trees, etc will work against you. He will simply withdraw their power! In the same vein, He will frustrate every meeting of witches and wizards held in trees meant against you. Their plans against you will fail. The Root of David will arise on your behalf and mobilize the trees to fight witches and wizards meeting in trees concerning your matter. It is well with you.







Trees can be more devastating and dangerous than modern weapons when under the mobilization of the Root of David.
