The highlights of chapters 4-5:

1)     There (was a need); Deborah filled it. [4:6-7]

2)     She filled the need; she (sought help). [4:6a]

3)     She sought help and got it; she had to (motivate the help). [4:6-9]

4)     She sought help; motivated it; then (developed a plan). [4:6b-7a]

“The Lord routed Sisera and all his chariots and all his army before Barak by the edge of the sword.” [4:15]  There is (no impossible) with God!!
