A cruel king's army was bullying God's people. His general, Sisera, had 900 iron chariots!
God's people had a wise judge named Deborah. She told a soldier named Barak, “God says go fight, and He will help you win!”
Barak said, “I'll go only if you come too.” So Deborah went. God sent a big storm, and the chariots got stuck in the mud! God's people won.
