Victory Through Worship
In Exodus there is a story about the Israelites when they fight the Amalekites.
Exodus 17:8-13
8 Then came Amalek, and fought with Israel in Rephidim. 9 And Moses said unto Joshua, Choose us out men, and go out, fight with Amalek: to morrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the rod of God in mine hand. 10 So Joshua did as Moses had said to him, and fought with Amalek: and Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill. 11 And it came to pass, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed: and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed. 12 But Moses 'hands were heavy; and they took a stone, and put it under him, and he sat thereon; and Aaron and Hur stayed up his hands, the one on the one side, and the other on the other side; and his hands were steady until the going down of the sun. 13 And Joshua discomfited Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword.
Exodus 17:8-13
In this Story when Moses' hands are raised the Israeli's triumph; But when his hands come down the Israeli's began to be beat.
Raising your hands are a sign of surrender, What do the police yell at people when they a have a gun? Put your hands in the Air.
When we raise our hands in church and begin to worship and surrender to God we begin to gain the victory in Jesus name.
When we raise our hands as a sign of worship, then God can begin to move and bring us the victory. Worship is how we fight our battles.
