Warrior Heart
Judges 5:9
My heart is with Israel's princes, with the willing volunteers among the people. Praise the LORD!
This first heart in Judges is from the song of Deborah, the female judge, a mother in Israel. She sang this song with Barak after they had victory. The best I can tell, she is speaking for herself here as verse 7 refers to "I, Deborah."
This verse echoes verse 2, the first lines of the song:
"When the princes in Israel take the lead,
when the people willingly offer themselves—
praise the LORD!"
I might choose this part of the definition here: courage, spirit, energy. Also her innermost soul or conscience. All were joined with the warrior princes and the soldiers alike to gain the victory.
God, let my heart be with the right side in the conflicts of my generation. Let me go to war in Your Name only.
