For info Shishak was Ramese III. As I said large armies were put together to defeat Egypt and though historians believe the numbers were exaggerated (ie. because they believe that happened in the reports of most nations in those times) doesn't mean they are right,they were not there. Even if the numbers were exaggerated Asa with God's help defeated the Egyptian army and was the finial blow to Egypt's reign of that area. Sorry for the misinformation in the earlier post, I got my rulers mixed up and went and checked to make sure I was giving it to you correctly this time. Not all historians agree with what I just reported but this account brings together quite nicely the history of the two nations that other accounts do not..Wars are matters of logistics. The lack of logistics probably had more to do with the Egyptian defeat than anything. They were not Mongols.

The Bible says God's army won the day. His army is of angels.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
