I’m convinced, as long as we trust in our own resources, we’ll see very little of God’s power in our lives. Why would God intervene, if we leave Him out? Why would God do miraculous things, if we act as if we don’t need Him.

Main Points:
1. Victory does not depend on the size of our resources, but on the power and sovereignty of God.

2. In our lives, we often face challenges that seem insurmountable. We may feel inadequate, outnumbered, or overwhelmed. Yet, the story of Gideon reminds us that God specializes in using small numbers to accomplish His purposes. He delights in taking the weak and the insignificant and using them to display His power and glory.

3. Whatever battles you are facing today, remember that victory is not contingent upon your own strength or resources. Place your trust in the God who can do great things with small numbers. Allow Him to work through you, and watch as He accomplishes the extraordinary.

Today’s Scripture Verses:

Psalm 20:7 - “Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God.”

Judges 7:2 - "The Lord said to Gideon, “You have too many men. I cannot deliver Midian into their hands, or Israel would boast against me, ‘My own strength has saved me.’”
