Gideon’s Army

Judges 7:7  

The LORD said to Gideon, “With the three hundred men that lapped I will save you and give the Midianites into your hands. Let all the other men go, each to his own place.”

Gideon’s army of three hundred men consisted of:

. Those who manifested courage

. Those who were alert under pressure

. Those who were willing to follow instructions

Thoughts

~ Father, strip away from me whatever is blocking people's view of You in my life. - Tim Walter

~Without God, we have the ability to manufacture character, but it's counterfeit and cheap.  We can produce love, but it's conditional; happiness, but it's temporary; peace, but it's circumstantial. -  Jeff Kinley

~ It is from out of the depths of our humility that the height of our destiny looks grandest.  Let me truly feel that in myself I am nothing, and at once, through every inlet of my soul. God comes in, and is everyone in me. - William Mountford
