—Judges 7:1-8, 16-22
by: Trisha Gerstel.
We find in today’s Scripture reading a very important reminder: Our God is a mighty and powerful God. The Lord is capable of delivering us from the darkest of situations, and He can do so without the help of man. Whenever we find ourselves with our backs against the wall and nobody in our corner, we can appreciate the story of how God intentionally whittled Gideon’s army from 32,000 down to 300 men. Through the Lord’s strength, not their own, they defeated the powerful and plentiful Midianites! When we remember this, we can face troublesome circumstances with reassurance that God will deliver.
