2 Samuel 8:1-14
[1] After this it came to pass that David attacked the Philistines and subdued them. And David took Metheg Ammah from the hand of the Philistines. 
[2] Then he defeated Moab. Forcing them down to the ground, he measured them off with a line. With two lines he measured off those to be put to death, and with one full line those to be kept alive. So the Moabites became David’s servants, and brought tribute. 
[3] David also defeated Hadadezer the son of Rehob, king of Zobah, as he went to recover his territory at the River Euphrates. 
[4] David took from him one thousand chariots, seven hundred horsemen, and twenty thousand foot soldiers. Also David hamstrung all the chariot horses, except that he spared enough of them for one hundred chariots. 
[5] When the Syrians of Damascus came to help Hadadezer king of Zobah, David killed twenty-two thousand of the Syrians. 
[6] Then David put garrisons in Syria of Damascus; and the Syrians became David’s servants, and brought tribute. So the Lord preserved David wherever he went. 
[7] And David took the shields of gold that had belonged to the servants of Hadadezer, and brought them to Jerusalem. 
[8] Also from Betah and from Berothai, cities of Hadadezer, King David took a large amount of bronze. 
[9] When Toi king of Hamath heard that David had defeated all the army of Hadadezer, 
[10] then Toi sent Joram his son to King David, to greet him and bless him, because he had fought against Hadadezer and defeated him (for Hadadezer had been at war with Toi); and Joram brought with him articles of silver, articles of gold, and articles of bronze. 
[11] King David also dedicated these to the Lord, along with the silver and gold that he had dedicated from all the nations which he had subdued— 
[12] from Syria, from Moab, from the people of Ammon, from the Philistines, from Amalek, and from the spoil of Hadadezer the son of Rehob, king of Zobah. 
[13] And David made himself a name when he returned from killing eighteen thousand Syrians in the Valley of Salt. 
[14] He also put garrisons in Edom; throughout all Edom he put garrisons, and all the Edomites became David’s servants. And the Lord preserved David wherever he went.

MFM Daily Devotional Message Saturday, 27th June, 2026.

David was a man of war. In fact, war was not strange to him. He faced many battles on his way to the throne and faced more on the throne. However, the beautiful thing is that he always conquered because God was with him.

David was announced to the whole of Israel in a war, when he killed Goliath. He was Saul's captain; he fought against the Philistines and gave their foreskins as bride price to Saul for his daughter, Michal (1 Samuel 18:13,27). Also, David and his men used to carry out raids while he was still a fugitive (1 Samuel 27:8-11). They used to attack towns that were enemies of Israel, the ones Joshua should have destroyed. Thus, they continued to carry out the judgement of God on those nations.

When David eventually became king, his battles did not end. He continued to fight battles and the Lord also continued to help him. His men of war were well trained so that even when David grew weak, they were able to cover and defend him (2 Samuel 21:15-17).

As Christians, we are in a battle and we have been called to be warriors. There is a constant struggle between light, which we represent, and darkness; and it is impossible to be neutral. We cannot afford to be unprepared at any time because the enemy of our souls goes about like a roaring lion, seeking whom to devour (1 Peter 5:8). What we have to do is strengthen our hands in the Lord like David and also raise others. We have to use the weapons of warfare that the Lord has made available for us, like the word of God, prayer, fasting, and so on. The Lord wants us to be an army, not just individual soldiers. This is so that we will have people to rescue us if the enemy attacks us in our moment of weakness. Beloved, ask the Lord to make you His warrior today (Jeremiah 51:20-23). May the Lord strengthen your hands for victory, in Jesus' name.
