In Deuteronomy 20 we find the special instructions God gave to ancient Israel as it was about to enter the Promised Land.  These instructions were the “tactical briefs” given to Israel’s fighting forces.  At first sight they may seem simple, but they are deceptively so – and  they represented vital information Israel needed for successful conquest.

Today, those same tactical instructions can be applied in our own lives and offer us simple but timeless guidelines for the spiritual battles we must fight – as we can see in each instruction and the lesson it carries. Newly uploaded to the Tactical Living page this week, “Sound and Simple Battle Plans” looks at the tactical instructions given to ancient Israel – instructions from which we can all profit.
