#soap # Judges 07 ## Title: You Do the Possible, God Does the Rest ## Scripture: (Judges 7:22) “When the 300 men blew their trumpets, the Lord caused the Midianites to attack one another with their swords throughout the camp. The army fled to Beth Shittah on the way to Zererah. They went to the border of Abel Meholah near Tabbath.” (NET) ## Observation: God told Gideon to do the possible and even do what seemed to have no chance against such a great enemy. When we do our best and obey God, it can often seem counterintuitive. However, God is not looking for our greatness. He is looking for our faithfulness. He doesn’t need us to do anything. He can take care of things all by Himself. Therefore, our part in things has more to do with Him giving us the chance to partner with Him. He remains undefeated. ## Application: Trust the Lord, do what you can. Allow Him to do the impossible. ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for always doing above and beyond all we can ask or think.
