Judges 7

More of the story of Gideon today - his first battle under the Lord's command. All it takes is three hundred men, less than one percent of the army that had answered Gideon's call, to throw the enemy army into disarray. Of course, it wasn't really the men who won the battle... it was God, and that is the reason He chose so few to go (so that they could not think it was their own strength that won the day). That is a good lesson for us all, even today: God can do anything through us, or with us, so we need to depend on Him and not ourselves.
