Was there some kind of miracle associated with this battle that I’m not aware of? God doesn’t act in every human activity.

“Was there some kind of miracle associated with this battle that I’m not aware of? God doesn’t act in every human activity.”

Several, but most of all, the outmanned English fleet prevailed over the invincible Spanish armada.

One can interpret any favorable outcome as due to miracles. Did G-d provide the typhoon that saved Japan from the Mongol fleet? If so, why? Did G-d provide McClellan with Lee’s battle plans? (If you’re a Southerner, you may attribute this to a different source.)

I’m not qualified to interpret, or to try to influence Divine will, or Divine purpose. You are free to believe that there is Divine will in all those outcomes that you would consider to be positive, but what of all the negative outcomes?
