Nothing from chapter 13, but 14 was insightful.
Genesis 14: 14 'When Abram heard that his relative had been taken captive, he called out the 318 trained men born in his household and went in pursuit...'
What I love here is that Abram was prepared for an attack, and we too should prepare for the attacks of Satan. Rather than walking around with your head in the clouds, remember that the devil is out there on the prowl. Know your particular areas of sin where he is likely to attack, look at the day ahead and consider when those areas are likely to strike, and ask God for his help. As you approach those times, be on high alert, quoting scripture etc, and basically win the battle before it's begun. Expanded to every area of our lives, this is a life-changing principle I reckon.
