Pearls from the Bible 16



Many of us might have been through interviews where they screen people with many rounds. In Judges chapter 7, we can see God screening people through many rounds to add them to His army. Our God is a different kind of captain. He wants to reduce as many people in His army so that glory belongs to Him. When God takes a war in His hand, it is He who fights. God told Gideon to reduce men from 22,000 to 300. God gave dreams to the Midianites to instill fear about Gideon and his army. The sword of Jehovah and of Gideon is the cry of the soldiers who were with Gideon when they reached the battlefield. The enemy army was so afraid that they fought among themselves. When the Lord enters the wars, it is the Lord who wages the war. You just have to walk in His victory. Dear friend, whatever battle you are in, give it to God and simply walk in His victory.


Dear God, we submit every thought that wages war in our minds to you. We submit every struggle in our lives to you. May you help us walk in your victory as you helped Gideon and his army. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
