DECEMBER 13 "DIVINE ORCHESTRATION"
IN THE TRUE ACCOUNTS OF WORLD HISTORY OF DIVINE
PROVIDENCE, WE HAVE THE STORY OF The citizens in the town of Feldkirch , Austria .
The Community did not know what to do.
Napoleon's massive army was preparing to attack. Soldiers had been spotted on
the heights above the little town, which was situated on the Austrian border. A
council of citizens was hastily summoned to decide whether they should try to
defend themselves or display the white flag of surrender.
It happened to be Easter Sunday, and the people
had gathered in the local church.
The pastor rose and said, "Friends, we
have been counting on our own strength, and apparently that has failed. As this
is the day of our Lord's resurrection, let us just ring the bells, have our
services as usual, and leave the matter in His hands.
We know only our weakness, and not the power of
God to defend us." The council accepted his plan and the church bells
rang. The enemy, hearing the sudden loud clanging of the bells, concluded that
the Austrian army had arrived during the night to defend the town.
Before the service had ended, the Napoleon
army had retreated and the town never over taken by the enemy.
Can you say "coincidence or Divine Orchestration"
