Reflections with Andy - Judges 7 - The Underdog

We see Gideon’s battle today. But it isn’t what you may expect. First, there’s no battle. Gideon and his troops are standing, blowing their trumpets, smashing their jars, but not fighting. The Lord confuses them, and they actually turn on each other. But what is even more is the Lord culls Gideon’s herd, leaving him with the smallest, the worst, and the weakest of all the troops. There is no way that Gideon can claim he won this battle. It is the Lord. The Lord wins this battle. God is always for the underdog.
