Reading 2 Samuel 22, coming upon verses 10 through 20, I see how David describes the Lord taking up his cause. My attention was captivated by the words of the tenth verse, "He bent the heavens and came down, total darkness beneath his feet." (2 Samuel 22:10 CSB)
Surely it shows that for one of His own, God can, and may well, bend the heavens and unleash His power on their behalf. God is in control and all-powerful.
(While it is true that He does not show favorites, He does still favor His children. That is not a contradiction, by the way. It means He does not show favorites among His children.)
The fury of God in the defense of His people is mighty. In some ways it is held back until the last days, but at times it is on full display. Like when Moses led the Israelites across the Red Sea and crushed the Egyptian army under the same waters He held back from Israel.
Just some thoughts as I was reading. Figure I'd share.
