“Benaiah”

Blessings folk!

The next several verses give us insight into the Mighty Men…detail about some, names of all.

2 Sa 23:20-23

Then Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man of Kabzeel,
who had done mighty deeds, killed the two sons of Ariel of Moab.
He also went down and killed a lion in the middle of a pit on a snowy day.

He killed an Egyptian, an impressive man.
Now the Egyptian had a spear in his hand, but he went down to him with a club and snatched the spear from the Egyptian’s hand and killed him with his own spear.

These things Benaiah the son of Jehoiada did,
and had a name as well as the three mighty men.

He was honored among the thirty, but he did not attain to the three.
And David appointed him over his guard.

Mighty men do mighty deeds.
They kill the enemy.
They kill animal threats.
They do not back down even when “out-weaponed”.
They do deeds of honor.

Benaiah was such a man, though he did not attain to the three.
Mighty none the less.

David appointed him over his guard…protector.

We, as True Believers, are empowered to do mighty deeds.
We are Mighty Men in the Spirit.
Live as such.
