V 7-11
These verses stood out for me after reading the whole chapter. Too often we rely upon ourselves to protect or defend what we have rather than look to God who has provided everything we need. Chariots, weapons, walls and reservoirs are utilised to preserve that which was temporary. The people looked inwards and outwards but not upwards.
How often do we when we are busy forget to look up to God for help and guidance? Instead we continue on in our own strength and build up our own ‘walls’ or ‘reservoirs’ rather than being open and giving to those around us.”

Thanks Duncan - I shall remember the 'walls and reservoirs' summary of what we so easily do for security.
