When we are going through attacks, always seek the Lords Will in what to do. Stop and Pray, and listen to what the Lord says for you to do. Just because He told you how to handle something once don't assume that id how He will do things the next time.
Always Pray, Pray, Pray, until you know that you Know what God would have you to do!!!
17 When David’s former allies, the Philistines, discovered that David, whom they still considered a vassal of Gath, was now king over a united Israel, they sent an army to battle him; but David heard they were coming and withdrew into the fortress.
18 The Philistines spread their forces in the valley of Rephaim southwest of Jerusalem.
David (to the Lord):
19 Should I go to war against the Philistines? Will You make me victorious over them?
Eternal One:
Yes, go. I will certainly give you victory.
20 So David battled the Philistines at Baal-perazim and defeated them.
David: The Eternal has broken through my enemies in front of me like water bursting through a dam.
That is why the place was named Baal-perazim, meaning “the Lord who bursts through.”
21 The Philistines abandoned their idols on the field, and David and his forces carried them away.
22 Yet again the Philistines came up and prepared for battle in the valley of Rephaim.
23 David asked the Eternal One what he should do.
Eternal One:
Do not directly face their forces. Circle around behind them, and array yourselves for battle in front of the balsam trees.
24 When you hear the sound of a mighty army marching, reverberating in the tops of the balsam trees, come quickly and fight, for the Eternal has gone ahead of you into battle to destroy the army of the Philistines.
25 David did just as the Eternal One commanded and won a great victory. He struck down the fleeing Philistines from Geba all the way to Gezer, just before the coastal plain.
