The Lord Is With You, Mighty Warrior

 The Lord is with you, mighty warrior - Judges 6:12.

Go in the strength you have

               The angel called Gideon as mighty warrior and told him to go in the strength he has to save Israel from the hand of Midianites. The Lord turned to him and said, “Go in the strength you have and save Israel out of Midian’s hand. Am I not sending you?” .“Pardon me, my lord,” Gideon replied, “but how can I save Israel? My clan is the weakest in Manasseh, and I am the least in my family.” - Judges 6:14, 15. My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness - 2 Corinthians 12:9.

I will be with you 

              The Lord told Gideon that He will be with him when he wondered how can he save Israel from the hand of  Midianites. The Lord answered, “I will be with you, and you will strike down all the Midianites, leaving none alive.” - Judges 6:16. They will fight against you, But they shall not prevail against you. For I am with you,” says the Lord, “to deliver you.” - Jeremiah 1:19. For the Lord your God is He who goes with you, to fight for you against your enemies, to save you - Deuteronomy 2:4.

Mighty Warrior

              Gideon saved Israel from the hand of Midianites with just three hundred men. When the three hundred blew the trumpets, the Lord set every man’s sword against his companion throughout the whole camp; and the army fled to Beth Acacia, toward Zererah, as far as the border of Abel Meholah, by Tabbath - Judges 7:22. But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty - 1 Corinthians 1:27. 

                                                        


PRAYER: Dear Lord, We are mighty warriors as You are with us. Let us go in the strength we have as Your grace is sufficient for us. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
