Gideon – Not By Might.  Judges 7

Gideon had been chosen to deliver Israel from the Midianites. He had 32,000 fighting men against an army of 135,000. But God said Gideon’s army was far too big and it got further reduced to 300!  God wanted to make sure than when victory was reported it was without a doubt it was the strength of God that had delivered Israel not the fighting power of Gideon’s army. This Sunday morning we’ll consider how everything we do is not about our glory, but His. 

Encouraging text:  Get up! For the Lord has given you victory Judges 7:15

God's Lovingkindness    Psalm 107:43           

English translators had so much difficulty translating the  Hebrew word "chêçêd" that they had to make up a new English word “lovingkindness” to try and convey its meaning. But even this word which attempts to describe God’s love for us is inadequate. This Sunday evening we are going to think about God’s lovingkindness and how understanding it has implications for us with regard to receiving forgiveness, healing and every blessing He has for us.
