day no, 15,542: to wield and for war

Psalm 144:1
Blessed be the LORD, my rock, 
who trains my hands for war,
and my fingers for battle

God equips what He calls and forms fingers for His intentions. When He placed enmity between the seed of the woman and the seed of the serpent, He also placed competency into the hands of His people. God gives what He requires. He provides what He demands. He does not throw us into the battle without throwing us weapons and the ability to wield them. 

How tragic it would be to have hands trained for war only for them to whittle the days away. How disappointing to have fingers trained for battle engaged only in online warfare. God made our hands for war and our fingers for battle. Our theology comes out our fingertips and they were formed for fighting the good fight for God's glory and the good of our neighbor.
