Gideon defeats the Midianites
Judges 7:21 When each man held his position around the camp, all the Midianites ran, crying out as they fled.
Gideon’s warriors simply watched as the army of Midian fell into panic, confusion, and disordered retreat. Not one man had to draw a sword to defeat the enemy. Gideon’s small army could never have brought about such a victory in its own strength. God wanted to demonstrate to Israel that victory depends not on strength or numbers, but on obedience and commitment to him.
Remember in Chapter 6:12 When right from the start God called Gideon a mighty warrior. God told Gideon to go save Israel out of the Midian’s hand, and its He who is sending you. Gideon said, how can he save Israel, his clan was the weakest in Manasseh, and he was the least of his family. But the LORD assured him that He would be with him. Gideon failed to see how God could work through him. Notice how God uses the least to shame the great.
Lets bring it home: God is with us today, and we got to move and go forth as a mighty warrior for Christ. We can’t sit back and keep questioning God, when he tells us in his word that
I will never leave you or forsake you, I can do all things in Christ who strengthens me, No weapon form against you will prosper and what can man do to me. We got to stay in his word and be obedient to his commands, not just on the outside, but the inside.
