God loves to do the unexpected
through the unknown and underrated!

Judges 4:12-17 NLT

When Sisera was told that Barak son of Abinoam had gone up to Mount Tabor, he called for all 900 of his
iron chariots and all of his warriors, and they marched from Harosheth-haggoyim to the Kishon River. Then
Deborah said to Barak, “Get ready! This is the day the Lord will give you victory over Sisera, for the Lord is
marching ahead of you.” So Barak led his 10,000 warriors down the slopes of Mount Tabor into battle.
When Barak attacked, the Lord threw Sisera and all his chariots and warriors into a panic. Sisera leaped
down from his chariot and escaped on foot. Then Barak chased the chariots and the enemy army all the
way to Harosheth-haggoyim, killing all of Sisera’s warriors. Not a single one was left alive. Meanwhile,
Sisera ran to the tent of Jael, the wife of Heber the Kenite, because Heber’s family was on friendly terms
with King Jabin of Hazor.

Judges 5:21 NIV

The river Kishon swept them away, the age-old river, the river Kishon.
When you are humble and willing, when you don’t hesitate or bargain,
and you follow God precisely…

He will put you in the right place at the right time.

Judges 4:11,18 NIV

Now Heber the Kenite had left the other Kenites, the descendants of Hobab, Moses’ brother-in-law, and
pitched his tent by the great tree in Zaanannim near Kedesh….Jael went out to meet Sisera and said to him,
“Come, my lord, come right in. Don’t be afraid.” So he entered her tent, and she covered him with a blanket.

He can use whatever is in your hand.

Judges 5:19-21 NLT

“Please give me some water,” he said. “I’m thirsty.” So she gave him some milk from a leather bag and
covered him again. “Stand at the door of the tent,” he told her. “If anybody comes and asks you if there is
anyone here, say no.”
But when Sisera fell asleep from exhaustion, Jael quietly crept up to him with a hammer and tent peg in her
hand. Then she drove the tent peg through his temple and into the ground, and so he died.

He isn’t limited by your position.

Judges 5:24 NLT

Most blessed among women is Jael, the wife of Heber the Kenite. May she be blessed above all women who
live in tents.

Judges 4:22 NIV

Just then Barak came by in pursuit of Sisera, and Jael went out to meet him. “Come,” she said, “I will show you the
man you’re looking for.” So he went in with her, and there lay Sisera with the tent peg through his temple—dead.
