(OPINION) Are Ukrainians receiving some heavenly help in the fight against their Russian invaders? Stories of divine intervention are being told, including a pillar of fire at night and confused Russian troops.
In this week’s episode of CBN News The Global Lane, CBN Ukraine Director Kostyantine Lytvynenko explains that although his fellow countrymen are showing incredible strength and resiliency in the war with Russia, they’re also experiencing some divine intervention.
Lytvynenko said one man shared with him a story of his son who’s serving in the Ukrainian army. He said the man told him on one dark night, the soldiers were holding their positions and discovered there were a lot of Russian Federation tanks and other mobile units coming directly at them.
It appeared the soldiers would have trouble defending themselves. The son picked up his phone and called his father. “He said, ‘Dad, you have to pray right now. We’re in a situation,'” Lytvynenko said. So the father called other members of their church and asked them to start praying.
Later, the son called his father back. “He said, ‘There’s some miracle that happened. It looked like an attack (on the Russians) from a spaceship. There was some kind of lightning shooting from the sky,'” Lytvynenko told CBN News. “And sparks were spreading everywhere.” In the morning, they (the Ukrainian troops) discovered the Russian tanks and other mobile units had been destroyed.
“All of those soldiers thought maybe it was done by some kind of a weapon we didn’t know about,” Lytvynenko said. “It was just God’s intervention.” Lytvynenko also relayed another incident he heard from a friend. He said the friend told him, “‘We were praying that they (the Russians) would start resisting each other. That the enemy would resist the enemy.'” Lytvynenko explained that there were several incidents like this in the Bible. READ MORE
