What’s Inside?

JAN 22, 2024

Today’s Scripture

Judges 7:7, NLT

The LORD told Gideon, “With these 300 men I will rescue you and give you victory over the Midianites. Send all the others home.”

Today’s Word

God told Gideon to fight the Midianite army of 135,000 men with 300 men, and what seemed to be impossible odds ended in an amazing victory. I imagine that most people thought Gideon was crazy, but what they didn’t know was that God had already called Gideon a “mighty hero.” When you’re outnumbered, outsized, out-trained, out-educated, don’t be surprised if people say, “You’re not talented enough, smart enough, strong enough, experienced enough.” What they can’t see is what God put in you. They’re just looking on the outside from a natural perspective, but you have something inside, the seed of Almighty God. It will take you where you can’t go on your own. But sometimes doubt will whisper, “You don’t have what it takes to accomplish that dream. Where are you going to get the funds? You’re barely making it each week. How can you get that promotion? Your coworkers are more qualified.” Deep down you can’t explain it, but something tells you, “You can do it. You were created for this.” You know it’s going to happen.

Prayer for Today

“Father, thank You that You see my potential and know what I am capable of. Thank You that You have equipped and are empowering me to be strong where I feel weak and less-than. I believe that You are transforming me into the mighty warrior You created me to be. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.”
