Deuteronomy 20 lays out God's surprising and sobering "Rules of War" for Israel. In this Bible study, Elder Jonathan Moseley walks verse by verse through Deuteronomy chapter 20, explaining how the Lord instructed His people to prepare for battle—not by trusting numbers, strength, or weapons, but by trusting in Him alone. This chapter addresses fear in the face of overwhelming odds, the priest's role in reminding Israel of God's deliverance, and the unexpected mercy shown to those distracted, fearful, or newly established in life. The passage also explains God's commands regarding cities, surrender, judgment, restraint in warfare, and the protection of long-term provision over short-term gain. Along the way, this study highlights: Why Israel was commanded not to fear stronger enemies God's mercy toward those not ready for battle The difference between wars inside and outside the land of Canaan The seriousness of divine judgment and obedience God's restraint on human vengeance and destruction How these principles reveal God's character and holiness This lesson reminds us that victory does not come from human ability, courage, or strategy—but from the Lord who goes before His people to fight for them. 📖 Scripture Focus: Deuteronomy 20 🎙️ Speaker: Elder Jonathan Moseley 📍 Series: Deuteronomy Bible Study "For the LORD your God is He that goeth with you, to fight for you against your enemies, to save you." — Deuteronomy 20:4
