In spite of the confusion and jumbled and contradictory narratives about our past, it seems one of the more revelatory means to witness the presence and influence of the divine and also help in building one’s belief quotient, would indeed be the study of history. In surveying the history of warfare, in particular, the presence of divine intervention can be found in lopsided contests where the disadvantaged party wins a shocking and almost inexplicable victory in a short timeframe and with a minimum of death and destruction to both sides. The Battle of Midway in World War II is one example that comes to mind. What is Creator’s perspective on this observation?

In contrast to the Battle of Midway, can Creator comment on the turning point that was the Battle of Stalingrad in World War II? Unlike Midway, which was decided in less than a week, Stalingrad was a brutal bloodbath that ground on for months in the most horrific of conditions, both natural and manmade. Russian soldiers, in particular, feared their own leadership as much as the enemy in many cases. Stalingrad was called a “moonscape,” bombed into oblivion and utterly unrecognizable. Where was the divine in this contest? And what contrast would Creator make between the Battle of Midway and the Battle of Stalingrad?

The Battle of Midway was another seemingly miraculous outcome when things looked gloomy and the odds of victory seemed quite remote. But “against all odds” it could be argued that the entire outcome of the war in the Pacific was ultimately decided on that fateful day. Did prayer make a difference in the outcome?
