Horses and chariots and a great host shut up the prophet in Dothan. 
His young servant was alarmed. 
How could they escape from such a body of
 armed men?
But the prophet had eyes which his servant had not, and he 
could see a greater host with far superior weapons guarding him from all
 harm.
Horses of fire are mightier than horses of flesh, and chariots of
 fire are far preferable to chariots of iron.
Even so is it at this 
hour. 
The adversaries of truth are many, influential, learned, and 
crafty; and truth fares ill at their hands; and yet the man of God has 
no cause for fearing. 
Agencies, seen and unseen, of the most potent 
kind, are on the side of righteousness. 
God has armies in ambush which 
will reveal themselves in the hour of need.
The forces which are on the 
side of the good and the true far outweigh the powers of evil. 
Therefore, let us keep our spirits up, and walk with the gait of men who
 possess a cheering secret, which has lifted them above all fear. 
We are
 on the winning side.
The battle may be sharp, but we know how it will 
end.
Faith, having God with her, is in a clear majority: "They that be 
with us are more than they that be with them."
~Charles Spurgeon~
