Nine: The Lord showed His power and His wrath on the enemy. He was right about a woman saving the entire day. Obey the Lord; He will deliver you.
Twelve: I thought Barak was cowardly because he didn't want to lead the people by himself. If he had, God would have delivered Sisera into his hand. It was cool that God completely destroyed the army.
Forty-seven: Today I've gotten distracted by my youngest. Remember him, "smack down" boy from yesterday? Today, because he knows this story, he specifically asked to not hear the details of Sisera's death. It is rather a grisly scene.
However I can't help but notice Barak's unwillingness to lead the army and puzzle at it. Was he being cowardly? Lazy? Disobedient? Untrusting? I don't know. It does tell me that no matter what my first gut reaction is when I hear God's voice I should listen.
