Word Study Wednesday

Enemies can be used by God to fulfill His will.  Take the following verse:

[2Ch 25:8 ESV] 8 But go, act, be strong for the battle. Why should you suppose that God will cast you down before the enemy? For God has power to help or to cast down."

or this one

[Ezr 8:22 ESV] 22 For I was ashamed to ask the king for a band of soldiers and horsemen to protect us against the enemy on our way, since we had told the king, "The hand of our God is for good on all who seek him, and the power of his wrath is against all who forsake him."

The way God uses enemies seems to depend on our obedience to Him.  Something to keep in mind, as we will never defeat Him or His will.
