A
reminder for today
The
LORD said to Gideon, "You have too many warriors with you. If I let all of
you fight the Midianites, the Israelites will boast to me that they saved
themselves by their own strength. (Judges 7:2)
As it is Gideon was battling with his faith and he asked
God for a sign more than once. Then to add on to his challenges the Lord
reduced Gideon’s army from 32000 to 300. Now that is a significant difference,
and I believe it placed Gideon in a place where he had no choice but to trust.
The
LORD told Gideon, "With these 300 men I will rescue you and give you
victory over the Midianites. Sometimes in our lives we
stand in front of incredible odds and sometimes things just seem to fall into our
laps. I believe that in both cases God plays a vital role and that in both
cases He gives us what we need and places the victory in our hands.
My dear friend, when the Israelites turned their backs on
God and then asked for help, God wanted them to know that He is the one that
holds their fate in His hands and therefore He gave their tiny army victory against
overwhelming odds making it clear that there was no way they could’ve done it
on their own. It is important that we know where our victories come from and
that God holds our lives in His hands. This, my dear friend, is so important
for you to truly comprehend. God can change your circumstances and any moment,
and how you accept it will define your place in His kingdom and make you the
hero that you truly are. In the end, God will give you victory for His glory
and giving Him that glory is so important for it will lift you to a new level of
faith that will change lives.
God has given me so many victories in my life, but the
ones that truly defined me is the ones that I knew was impossible in the hands
of a man, and that only God could give me those victories.
Have an awesome day dear friend of Jesus.
