Kingdom of Darkness Divided: al-Qaeda Delivers "Severe Blow" to ISIS

Aimee Herd-Commentary : Nov 24, 2015  Fox News

"If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand." (Mark 3:24)

According to a Fox News report, al-Qaeda's Al Nusra Front (al-Qaeda in Syria) recently carried out a suicide bombing that took place at a "top level meeting of the Yarmouk Martyrs Brigade, a key ISIS militia known for its bloody and vicious hold over parts of the Golan Heights. Six of the group's top men were killed, including Muhammad 'Abu Ali' al-Baridi, the shadowy head of the group who went by the nickname 'The Uncle.'"

The Israeli Yediot Aharonot's veteran military advisor, Alex Fishman, noted in the Fox News report:

"The Islamic State [ISIS], that controls the closest area to the Israel border in the Syrian Golan Heights, suffered a severe blow and lost its entire top command in the area in one fell swoop."

In this case, it's easy to be reminded of Jesus' words that "If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand." (Mark 3:24)

And my thoughts also turn to 2 Chronicles 20, where King Jehoshaphat faced an impossible battle, and caused all the people of his kingdom to cry out to the Lord. When they did, God fought the battle for them and turned the enemies against themselves till they were all defeated.

A prayer strategy for today perhaps?
