It is very interesting the description that the Torah about this battle:

At the end of this week's Torah portion we are told about the first obstacle that had the people of Israel, to meet other people. The children of Israel were delivered, out of Egypt, and in the way the people of Amalek attacked. Immediately, Moses asked Joshua to gather several men to go to war.
It is very interesting the description that the Torah about this battle: "And it happened blockbuster that when Moses raised his hand, Israel prevailed: and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed" blockbuster (Shemot 17: 11).
What does this mean? Why triumphed when Moses raised his hands and failed blockbuster when down? You mean that Moshe had some sort of divine power? Or that D "s the same, through the hands of Moses, digitaba combat? Were not the men who were actually fighting?
In the Talmud, Tractate Rosh Hashanah 29a, scholars wonder about this situation and conclude with a very profound answer: "Did Moshe's hands were stopped war or" The text explains that if the children of Israel raised his eyes to heaven and gave his heart to D "s, they were brave and forces, blockbuster however, when they did not, decayed and were defeated.
According to this response, the victory did not depend strictly on the hands of Moses nor of divine power, but something much simpler and more human. The triumph depended blockbuster on the self-confidence of the village itself to meet this new challenge. Moshe's hands did nothing, but when the people raised their eyes to heaven, remember that there is someone superior, giving blockbuster strength and support to meet the challenges of life. Only then regained their courage and bravery.
Happens to us many times, blockbuster at different times in life when we must overcome a new obstacle without knowing exactly why, we convince ourselves that we are not able to do so, "successful", we fail.
It may be on a test, in a new project, a business, or even when we fall. We believe that we are not the right person, the right person who is looking in front of us. But while we fervently wish to reach that place we long to pass the exam, have success in the project, business, or to fall in love.
As parsha teaches us this week, what is needed is trust itself. Do not expect miracles or saviors leaders but have faith in our Creator who sustains blockbuster us and strengthens and further convince us that we are capable enough so as to achieve our desired goals.
When we are lost in the middle of a battle with fear, uncertainty and unrest, we direct our eyes to the sky to restore confidence in ourselves, without waiting for us to act miraculous hands.
