Judges 6: 7 And the Lord said to Gideon, By the hand of the three hundred Men will I saved you and delivered the Midianites into your hands. And the same Night God said to Gideon Arise, get thee down to the host and thou shalt hear what say, but if you are afraid take Phurah your servant with you; When They went down, the Midianites and the Amalekites, and all the children of the east lay along the valley like grasshoppers for multitude; and camels were without numbers, as the sands of the sea for multitude. [God has delivered the army into there hands: And through the power of God they prevailed].
The Midianites were desert marauders related to the Israelites through Abraham’s second wife, Keturah, and her son, Midian. But they were at odds with each other during the time of the Judges. God foresees potential danger in our lives, He gives certain commands; and guide lines, that if followed correctly, it can protect us from dangerous consequences. That also goes for each one of us. God is Love, He Loved each and every one of us. God Judged Nathans in the past, and He will also do the same in the feature and even though He may be silent, for long period of time, I think He is just giving us a chance to repent.
God also chooses to used a people with the Strongest Character To Lead His People to victory.Gideon and his army was greatly out numbered, but little is much when God is in it. Think of Abraham, Moses, Joshua, Daniel, Gideon, Barak, Deborah, Ester, Samuel, David, Jeremiah, Peter. Paul, Samson,To name a few. at first it may not seem, as if they are the greatest choices; But God who knows the heart, always make the right choice. He never make a mistake. But when they follow God’s direction they gain new Strength; Think of all the Missionary, Spread all over the World, of today; whom God is working through.
When God called those Men and Women to Service He Expand there abilities, in spite of there doubts, fear, or insecurity, When they put there faith and trust in God Promises; and His ability to work, God Love for us cannot be measured, His promised is true, When He plucked us from our mountain of sin, and brought us into the fellow ship of His dear Son, as One branch from the burning fire of this World. Not that those are more righteous; But God choose to work through some. [1Corinthians 1: 26-29,please read], Human will never be able to understand God’s wisdom, no matter how we try.The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. And His Love knows no boundary.
