—Judges 7:19-23
by: Angie Osborn.
When looking at this passage from a battle standpoint, there is no reason to believe that Gideon and his army would win. They were severely outmanned. But, it was not Gideon’s battle to win. It was the Lord’s. Gideon’s job was to lead the army and follow God’s call in obedience. When we faithfully step into whatever area God calls us to, He will give us victory. He is looking for leaders who are willing to faithfully trust and follow Him into battle. He has the power to defeat any enemy, bring down any strong hold, and carry us through any situation. We only need to follow His plan.
