Ep 38: Ultimate Underdog Story
Manage episode 420639305 series 3544965
Welcome to the transformational podcast. A conversation between brothers about practical ways faith is impacting our lives. We invite you to join us on this journey as we are learning to let faith transform the way we live. Romans 12:2
This week Chris and I discuss the story of Jonathan and his armor bearer, and the faith they demonstrated by actively serving God. In I Samuel 14:6, Jonathan says to his armor bearer, "Come, let's go over to the outpost of those uncircumcised fellows. Perhaps the Lord will act in our behalf. Nothing can hinder the Lord from saving, whether by many or by few." Now that is faith in action!
With no real expectation of winning the war, Jonathan and his armor bearer with the help of God put the entire Philistine army on the run. They had the courage to step out in faith with the expectation that God would act.
The battle for us starts before we leave the house. Sometimes that battle is proceeded by adversity as you put yourself out there and the enemy starts to notice. Sometimes we have to wait a little longer than we want. The important thing to remember is that we, like Jonathan, need to proactively seek what God calls us to do by stepping out into "perhaps".
