Gideon and 300 soldiers were able to defeat a Midianite army of 120,000 through God's divine help and strategy. Their victory demonstrated that God fights for those who surrender unconditionally to Him. The 300 soldiers underwent tests to prove their courage and commitment. Though few in number, they were invincible because God Himself was fighting for them. Their victory showed that those who renew their spirituality and follow God can overcome any enemy, regardless of size or strength.
The document provides context and summaries for several stories from the book of Judges in the Bible. It discusses the stories of Deborah, Gideon, Jael, Samson, and Ruth in relation to themes of the great controversy between God and Satan. Key points made include:
- Deborah inspires confidence as a judge of Israel during a time of oppression. God uses Jael to defeat the enemy leader Sisera despite impossible odds.
- Gideon doubts himself but is chosen by God to deliver Israel from the Midianites. Through signs of assurance, Gideon gains confidence in God's presence with him.
- Samson's life starts with a divine purpose but he dis
God uses people throughout history in the cosmic conflict between good and evil. The document summarizes several stories from the book of Judges in the Bible that illustrate this. In the story of Gideon, God calls him to liberate Israel from their enemies and uses his humility and modesty to achieve victory. In the story of Samson, God uses his weaknesses and sins against the Philistines to deliver Israel from them. The document also briefly summarizes stories of Deborah, Barak, Jael, Ruth, and Samuel that show individuals both furthering good and bringing wickedness based on their choices in this cosmic conflict.
A verse by verse commentary on Psalm 35 dealing with David's prayer for God's help against his enemies, and his promise of praise when he is rescued. He described his anguish when his prayer went unanswered for so long. He pleads for God to vindicate him and lead all to praise Him for doing so.
The document discusses issues around violence, militarism, and nationalism within some evangelical Christian communities in the United States. It presents several biblical passages that are sometimes used to support militaristic views as well as quotes from evangelical pastors and authors promoting tough, violent masculinity. However, it also shares alternative perspectives focusing on nonviolence and forming one's life around the image of Jesus rather than nationalist ideals. The document encourages reflection on how these issues have impacted people and questions about reconciling them with teachings of Jesus.
This document provides commentary on key passages from 2 Samuel 11, which describes King David's adulterous affair with Bathsheba and his subsequent attempts to cover it up. The commentary cites multiple authors and their analyses of David's sins and the events. It describes how David stayed in Jerusalem instead of going to war, saw Bathsheba bathing from the roof of his palace, and committed adultery with her, which marked a turning point in his formerly righteous life. The commentary explores the moral lessons from David's fall from grace.
When you go to war against your enemies and see horses
and chariots and an army greater than yours, do not be
afraid of them, because the LORD your God, who brought
you up out of Egypt, will be with you.
- The document discusses the history of Israel's claim to the land of Israel, which was given to them by God. It argues that no individual, group, or nation can challenge God's decision to give that land to Israel.
- It notes that Israel has faced severe persecution, including the Holocaust, but has survived and occupied the land given to them by God. Their resilience is a testimony that God gave them the land as a permanent possession.
- The document warns nations like Syria and Iran that are threatening Israel that they are fighting against God, not just Israel, and faces God's wrath and destruction for opposing his plan outlined in scripture. It argues all conflicts will ultimately end after God's supernatural intervention and
Jesus was demanding we give up all we haveGLENN PEASE
This is a study of Jesus demanding we give up all we have. We have to be like Jesus to be a disciple of Jesus, and that means we have to give up all we have just as He did for us. He gave His all for us, and we need to do the same for Him.

Pink, “It is precious to see that these words of all the tribes of Israel, "we are thy bone and thy flesh," were used by them as a plea. They had long ignored his rights and resisted his claims. They had been in open revolt against him, and deserved nought but judgment at his hands. But now they humbled themselves before him, and pleaded their near relation to him as a reason why he should forgive their ill usage of him. They were his brethren, and on that ground they sought his clemency.
The document discusses God fighting the battles of his people based on a passage from Joel 3:2. It makes several key points:
1) God orchestrates all events and will gather nations to the Valley of Jehoshaphat to judge them for how they treated Israel.
2) God assures his people that he will defend them and judge those who violate his will and purposes. Believers should find support in studying God's word.
3) God will act on behalf of his people Israel, who have a special place as his covenant people, though he loves all people. Any harm against God's people will be punished.
A verse by verse commentary on Judges 6 dealing with the Lord calling Gideon to be a mighty warrior, and he resisted the call of the Angel of the Lord. It took a miracle to convince him.
David is able to look ahead to being attacked by evil men who are as vicious as wild beasts coming to rip him apart, and like a lion seek to devour him. All of us have this same potential future, for Satan goes about as a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour, and we are his potential victims. David was under attack most all of his life, and God had protected him from all of them, and so he has full confidence that God will not let him down in the future attacks. His victory record is as long as his arm, and this has given him a strong positive feeling about the future.
David faces great opposition, but he is confident that God will be his protector and that all will be great in his future. In this verse we also deal with the humor and smiles of God.
In a world where war was a commonplace event everyone who grew up needed to learn how to fight or they were sunk. It sounds crazy but God left enemies in the land of Canaan to force the new generation of his people to learn how to fight. If there was no enemy they would have no reason to prepare for warfare, and they would be in big trouble if other nations came and decided to take their land. War preparation was essential for their survival, and so God left enemies in their midst so they would have no choice but to train young men in the use of weapons.
David had faith that God would deliver Goliath into the Israelites' hands. When David faced Goliath, he took one stone from his bag and felled the giant with his sling, demonstrating his trust that God would grant the victory, not swords or spears. The point of the story is that all should know that the LORD, not human strength, gives victory in battle. David's choice of five stones may have been because he knew Goliath had four giant brothers he would likely face as well.
Achan disobeyed God's command not to take anything from Jericho, which kindled God's anger against Israel. When Joshua sent men to scout Ai, underestimating its strength, the men were routed. Joshua realized their defeat was due to sin in the camp, tore his clothes and prayed in repentance, recognizing their need for God's help.
This document provides commentary on Isaiah 33 from multiple scholars. It discusses how the chapter warns the Assyrian army that destroyed cities in Judah that they will face destruction themselves. While the Assyrians plundered others without provocation, they will one day be plundered in turn when God puts an end to their destruction. The commentary analyzes the meanings and fulfillment of the warnings against Assyria in their destruction and the deliverance it brought to Judah.
God is able to use ordinary people to turn back the tide of evil, as seen in the lives of David, Elijah, Hezekiah, Esther, and Nehemiah. Through their accounts, we see that despite obstacles, we don't need to buckle under overwhelming evil but can stand firm in God's power. Their stories illustrate themes in the great controversy between God and Satan, such as God challenging the power of darkness, His working in human hearts, defeating those who challenge Him, and the need for prayer and repentance when conflicts arise.
It is a sad reality that God's people can be at war with each other, and even be killing each other. They worship the same God and have all the same beliefs, but they have
different loyalties in terms of government and power. Eventually all of the people of Israel and Judah united behind David, but until then they fought each other. It is typical of civil wars, that after they are over and their damage is evaluated, it is agreed that there should
be a better way of solving differences. The cost of a civil war is way too high, and everything possible should be done to avoid such a conflict. This is true for individuals,
families, cities, churches, as well as for nations. Work like warriors for peace rather than die as warriors for folly.
This is a study of Jesus as the right hand of God. It was by means of Jesus that God did all His mighty works and also fulfilled the plan of salvation.
This document contains a sermon about spiritual warfare against Satan and demons. It discusses how Christians must know their enemy (Satan and demons), know their King (Jesus Christ), and use the armor and weapons of God, which include truth, righteousness, faith, salvation, the Word of God, prayer, and perseverance. The sermon emphasizes the importance of prayer in spiritual warfare and communicating with God, who ultimately leads Christians to victory over Satan and the forces of evil.

Muladhara is the root centre of physical experience, located at the base of the spine, the sacral plexus. The square represents the earth itself, the four dimensions and the four directions. Four allows for completion, and earth embodies the elements and conditions for human completion on all levels.
Muladhara Chakra is the meeting place of the three main nadis: Ida, Pingala and Sushumna. The downward-pointing triangle indicates the downward movement of energy and the three main nadis.
The seed mantra is Lam, the yellow square represents the earth element. The Muladhara chakra governs the vital breath Apana. An inverted triangle in the centre of the square encloses the unmanifest Kundalini, represented as a snake wrapped in three and a half coils around the svayambhu (self born) linga. Because her mouth faces downward, the flow of energy is downward.
The opening at the entrance of the sushumna is called brahma-dvara, the door of Brahma, which is closed by the coils of the sleeping Kundalini. As soon as one begins working with Muladhara chakra, this dormant energy awakens, raises its head and flows freely into the channel of Sushumna, the central nerve canal that runs along the spine. These two aspects of the kundalini: sleeping and waking, are identified as her “poison” and her “nectar.” The kundalini is poison when she remains asleep in the lower abdomen; she is nectar when she rises up through Sushumna, the medial channel, to reunite with Siva, the Absolute, in the yogin’s cranial vault.
In the pericarp is found the presiding deity Brahma, the lord of creation. His skin is the color of wheat, he wears a yellow dhoti and a green scarf. Brahma is four-faced, four-armed, holding in his upper left hand a lotus flower, the symbol of purity.
Lição 12: João 15 a 17 – O Espírito Santo e a Oração Sacerdotal | 2° Trimestr...OmarBarrezueta1
Esta lição é uma oportunidade para discutirmos um assunto multo mal interpretado no contexto cristão, que é o fato de algumas pessoas pensarem que o conhecer Jesus é ter a nossa vida mudada em todas as áreas, como se Deus tivesse o dever de transportar-nos deste mundo para um outro mundo onde muitas coisas maravilhosas que desejamos seriam reais. No entanto, a nossa fé não nos tira do mundo após nos convertermos; ao invés disso, permanecemos vivendo sob as mesmas circunstâncias. O propósito de Deus não é nos tirar do mundo, mas nos livrar das ações do maligno (Jo 17.15), Sendo assim, a vida eterna não significa estar fora da realidade deste mundo, mas conhecer o único Deus verdadeiro (Jo 17.3).
taittreya upanishad - tradition of yoga and Upanishads, this concept of panch...Karuna Yoga Vidya Peetham
In his search towards reality or the unchanging fundamental unit of this universe, a scientist started with the external gross world of solid matter which is simple and easy to see, divide, and do experiments with.
This search led him through steps of understanding of this entire world of matter starting from elements, molecules, atoms, protons, neutrons and electrons;
He further understood that it is all packets of energy.
The atoms conglomerate together to form various chemicals; our body is therefore a permutation and combination of various chemicals. (Packets of energy in various configurations) When they join together they form molecules, cells, tissues organs, etc.
These follow certain well defined laws of nature and are controlled by nervous (electrical) and chemical (hormones) mechanisms to bring about movement and action in each and every cell.
Thus annamaya kosha is the physical frame which the grossest of the five Koshas.
The Revelation Chapter 7 Working Copy.docxFred Gosnell
John witnesses the sealing of God's 144,000 witnesses, and he hears the crying out or shouting of an unnumbered multitude of those who have been saved during the great tribulation.
This is an intermission scene before opening the seventh seal. We have seen six seals opened revealing of the events that would shortly occur. The first 4 reveal what was to occur in the great tribulation during the destruction of Jerusalem by the Romans in AD70.
The fifth seal reveals the question from those slain as to when the Lord would avenge their death. The sixth seal reveals the answer to them from the One on the throne and of the Lamb which would be the punishment of their persecutors and accomplices. John sees four messengers/angels holding back the four winds of the earth & keeping them from blowing on the earth, the sea or any tree. In this figurative language, these are not heavenly messengers/angels. These represent those who are trying to restrain the word of God everywhere. Their efforts are restrained by the messenger in verse 2, preventing them from holding back the 4 winds, the spread of the gospel of Christ by His messengers/angels. These 4 winds stand on the four corners of the earth, Rome’s worldwide influence to stop its spread. But the gospel will be preached in all the earth. See the study for the Bible passages that support this. John hears the commands given relating to the sealing of the servants of God and the figurative number representing them. John sees a great multitude standing before the throne of all nations and kindreds and people and tongues who are clothed with white robes. All the messengers/angels stood around the throne and the elders and the four beasts fell before the throne and worshipped God. One of the elders asks John what those were that were wearing white robes. John said he knew and the elder identifies them. The chapter ends with his explanation.

1. When God Fights For
You
Judges 6 & 7
Delivered during the first Sunday
worship at Tagpuro, Tacloban City
July 4, 2010
2. INTRODUCTION
None of us here are war freaks. None of
us has that warlike attitude that
characterizes those who do not possess
the Spirit of God.
We don’t like war, especially wars to
perpetuate empires and wars to justify
greed for land, wealth and power.
3. In 1914, European nations never wanted
war, but they were dragged into it.
It began when Austria annexed the
Turkish provinces of Bosnia and
Herzegovina in 1908, spoiling Serbia’s
hopes of getting back those provinces.
A Serbian nationalist assassinated Austria’s
archduke Francis Ferdinand, who was
visiting Sarajevo, in June 1914.
4. Assured of support by Germany, Austria
declared war on Serbia.
Russia rushed to aid Serbia. Germany
warned Russia to keep out and demobilize its
troops within 12 hours. Not receiving an
answer, Germany declared war on Russia.
Then assuming that France would help
Russia, Germany also declared war on
France.
5. Marching toward France, Germany had to pass
through Belgium. Belgium insisted that its
neutrality be respected, and when Germany did
not, she called on Great Britain.
Great Britain gave an ultimatum to Germany,
and when Germany insisted on mobilizing its
troops, she too declared war on Germany.
Many nations didn’t like war, but couldn’t help
being dragged into it.
6. In the Second World War, Germany again played
the aggressive role. America didn’t like to get
involved. But Germany went on and declared an
unrestricted submarine warfare and in the
process sank US vessels.
This occasioned the speech delivered by the US
president Franklin Delano Roosevelt, reflecting
the general sentiment of all Americans. He said:
“I don’t want wa’. Eleano’ don’t want wa’. Polly
[the dog] don’t want wa’. But the Germans want
wa’. Therefo’, wa’.”
7. War, in spite of its inherent evil, has its moral
purpose.
War is God’s way of disciplining unruly
powers, in order that moral justice and divine
design may be achieved in the world.
War has its leveling purpose too. No nation
today can truly call itself a superpower and
rule the world according to its whims.
8. The war of Israel against Canaan and its
neighboring nations achieved the high moral
purpose of God: It was to punish the unruly and
abusive nations. Notice, for example, the
phrase “for the iniquity of the Amorites is not yet
full” (Genesis 15:16). At the time the war was
waged against them, their sin was full, and the
purpose of the war was to dislodge these
Gentiles. This was God’s war, but God used His
people to wage that war.
9. In chapters 6 and 7 of the book of Judges,
the war against the Midianites too was
God’s design.
That war was one in which the odds were
stacked against Israel. But their warriors
of 300-strong won against 120,000
Midianites. What was the secret of their
victory?
10. DISCUSSION
T for divine Training.
They who would do battle for God needed
a divine training. Their training consisted
of a series of tests. I call them the Fear
Test and the Water Test. Since this war
would be God’s war, their victory would
not depend on their number but on God
(7:2).
11. So the thirty-two thousand volunteer soldiers
were made to undergo the Fear Test. God said
to Gideon: “Proclaim in the ears of the people,
saying, Whosoever is fearful and afraid, let him
go home” (7:3). I like that. If one is not
comfortable with being in the army of God,
God would make it easy for him to avoid being
drafted. No one serves God against his will.
The fearful can go, because courage as a
virtue is very necessary in soldiery.
12. Twenty-two thousand who were afraid
went home, but ten thousand volunteers
still remained.
But ten thousand soldiers were still too
many as far as God was concerned (7:4).
The ten thousand volunteers still had to
undergo the Water Test, under God’s
direct supervision. Read Judges 7:4-6.
13. Pray tell us, what is the significance of lapping
the water with one’s tongue and kneeling down
to drink? Nothing. But it is God’s way of
choosing the kind of men that should compose
His army.
And we hear the Lord telling Gideon: “With the
three hundred men that lapped I will deliver
you, and give the Midianites into your hand; and
let all the others go every man to his home”
(7:7).
14. R for spiritual Renewal.
They who would fight God’s war needed to be
renewed in spirit. They were idolatrous, and
therefore were punished (6:1-6). Because they
were punished, they cried (6:6).
Then we see God reminding them of His
goodness in the past, and of their failure to
repay that goodness, and of their not giving
heed to His voice (6:7-10). They were made
to realize where they failed. This is very
important. One is on the road to renewal
when he realizes that he is a sinner.
15. Notice also that they cried to the Lord for
help. Renewal starts with the realization
that the answer to our many ills does not
come from within us, but from outside of
us, from Someone above us.
They realized their need for the divine
refreshing, a refreshing that could come
from God alone.
16. Then God began seeking for the man
who was to lead in the deliverance of His
people (6:11-23). Gideon is his name.
When he was drafted into God’s army, he
was busy devising means to survive.
His vision had been limited by constant
hunger, by the difficulties of surviving,
and by the fear of the enemy.
17. His only challenge in life was to obtain
food for himself and for his own even
though the enemies were making things
impossible.
They could not sow. The enemy was
making it difficult for them to plant.
If they could sow, they could hardly
harvest what they had sown.
And if they could harvest little, they found
it almost impossible to prepare it for food.
18. But he was very resourceful. He put a
winepress to double duty by turning it into a
sunken threshing floor, the better to fool the
enemy (6:11).
His other weakness was his doubtful disposition
(6:13-18). He did not immediately jump to the
task knowing he was ill-prepared. His three
objections—his feelings of responsibility for his
family’s welfare, his doubts about the call itself,
and his feelings of inadequacy for the job—all
had to be overcome (6:12-22, 36-40).
19. But after he was convinced, he obeyed
with zest, resourcefulness and speed
(6:25-35). Gideon, the man with more
minuses than pluses in his character, had
undergone a renewal of his soul, his
emotion, his attitude, his whole being
(6:36-40).
20. I for Invincibility.
The three hundred braves (7:7) were
invincible as an army, but that invincibility did
not come from their inherent character.
Besides, they were few in number.
Notice too that they were not even made to
undergo practical skills training on how to use
the sword, the bow and the arrow, and other
weapons of warfare. In fact they did not even
have weapons of warfare!
21. This is probably the first time you
heard an army of 300 going to war
against 120,000—armed with nothing
but empty pitchers, torches, and
trumpets! This really amazes me.
22. But then I realize that if they had
weapons, and if they did train on the use
of these weapons, and if they won, they
would have attributed that victory to their
skills and their weapons. God skipped
skills training! God skipped weapons! He
wanted His people to rely on Him alone
for their victory in war.
23. Notice too the divine strategy that won this war
for God. Firstly, they had the assurance of God
that they would win (6:16; 7:7; 7:9).
They had the advantage of location, for the
enemy was below them (7:8). Then they had
the darkness of the night to cover them (7:9).
They had spies, the better to familiarize
themselves with the enemy territory, and to
know their enemies’ weaknesses and strengths
(7:10-15). They also employed the element of
surprise (7:19-21).
24. The three hundred braves, divided into
three companies, positioned themselves
in three directions surrounding the
Midianite camp.
And to the blaring of 300 trumpets and
the breaking of 300 pitchers, and the
raising of 300 burning torches, they
shouted their terrible war cry, “For the
Lord and for Gideon!”
25. When the 300 rushed as one into the enemy
camp, pandemonium broke loose. The Midianite
soldiers, terror-stricken and in great panic, and
perhaps because of the darkness, stabbed and
killed each other (7:22)! The Israelites did
nothing but to keep making noise and to pursue
the enemy. The Midianite army almost
decimated their own troops, leaving only 15,000
to escape. Brethren, this is a war that finds no
comparison in all history of wars ancient and
modern. God’s Three-Hundred is invincible
because God Himself is invincible.
26. U for the Unconditionality of their
surrender to God
God called them to wage a war for Him.
Did they know the prospect that
awaited them? They were fighting an
enemy whose cruelty and rapacity knew
no bounds, whose mobility knew no
comparison, whose number was by the
thousands (6:3-6).
27. But when they were called for
enlistment, the volunteers rallied to the
side of God (7:34-35). They never
complained nor asked any questions.
They never set any conditions for
enlistment, for it was God who set the
conditions (7:2, 7, 8, 9, 10). This is
surrender of one’s wish and will for God’s
wish and will, knowing perhaps that in
doing so, they would win the battle.
28. M for their Militancy
During this period of their history, the
people of Israel were worshipping both
Baal (the Phoenician male god) and
Asherah (the sensual Canaanitish goddess
who was also known as Astarte or
Astaroth), bowing to them, genuflecting to
them with as much devotion as any
Canaanite or Phoenician devotees did.
29. Do you find it rather strange that
God’s people had been worshipping
the gods and goddesses of their
enemies, the “father idols” and
“mother idols” they did not know
much about?
30. When God commissioned him to undertake the
task of delivering His people from their enemies,
Gideon started in his family backyard.
With ten of his servants, he overthrew the
idolatrous altar Joash his father had built, the
altar of Baal, and cut down the Asherah which
was upon it. Gideon destroyed both the “father
god” and the “mother goddess” in his
hometown! Then he laid down an altar for God
on top of Baal’s altar, slaughtered his father’s
bull and offered it on God’s altar using the cut
Asherah for firewood.
31. That’s a brilliant way of bringing the
lesson home, and a militant way of doing
righteousness! But he did it because the
God of heaven could not countenance,
could not tolerate, idolatry in His own
universe.
32. What can you say about the army of God?
They were endowed with a high sense of
purpose, and that is to win with God’s
help. Even the fearful among them
volunteered, although at the last minute
they had to be turned down. Did the
three hundred braves who remained know
what they were getting into?
33. They were fighting a bloody war with the
odds stacked against them, with their
number so few and with weapons none!
In the end, the war was won, but it was
won not because of numbers, not
because of weapons of arms, but
because God fought it for them.
34. .
P for the Perfecting of their Trust in
God.
It was God who set the directions on how the
battle should be fought: (1) in the number of
soldiers who would go to the battlefield (7:7);
(2) in the manner of fighting the war (in the
blowing of trumpets, in the breaking of
pitchers, in the raising of the torches, in the
crying shouts). This was God’s way then.
This is not the way modern men wage
modern wars.
35. It was God who would do the saving,
and they were just instruments (7:2).
They did what God wanted, perfectly
trusting Him because He who waged this
war also knew how to win it.
36. H for the Harmony of their Goals with
God’s Goals.
God wanted them to conquer evil in the
world, and they did. That evil in the world
was the Midianites.
God wanted them to learn obedience, and
they did. Had they insisted on their own
styles, on their own ways or techniques, they
could not have won that war.
37. CONCLUSION
What is man’s secret for winning a war?
Gen. George Patton has it. He says: “The
way to win the war is not to die for your
country; it is to make the other bastard
die for his country.” Man’s formula for
victorious warfare is to kill in great
numbers, to decimate the enemy
population if necessary.
38. Christians still wage wars, and the goal is
still the same: It is to win. But some
things have changed. The sphere of the
war has changed: It has become spiritual.
The battlefield has changed: It is where
sin has abound. The enemy too has
changed: It is no longer a war against
your fellowman but against the devil and
his cohorts.
39. What can we say about the techniques
and the standard operating procedures for
making soldiers for God?
Firstly, The need for divine Training.
Letter T. In the war against evil, the
number of soldiers are immaterial—300,
30, or 3. God enlists and trains quality
soldiers and their number may be small.
40. Second, The enlisted soldiers of God
must undergo a divine renewal. Letter R.
They cannot do battle against sin if they
too are living in sin.
Third, The enlisted soldier of God must
possess the spirit of invincibility. Letter I.
Invincibility is the predisposition to win,
not to be self-defeated, not to give up.
41. Fourth, The enlisted solder in the army of
God must unconditionally surrender his life to
God. Letter U. “Unconditional” means
“everything and without conditions” from us.
God alone sets the conditions.
Fifth, The enlisted soldier of God must have
the attitude of militancy. Letter M. This
means he gets ready for battle anytime,
every time, at all times. This means being
vigilant against sin.
42. Sixth, The enlisted soldier of God must have
perfect trust in his commander-in-chief, God
himself. Letter P. In the war against the spirits,
it is He who wages the war for us.
Lastly, the goals of the enlisted soldier of God
and that of God himself must be in harmony.
Letter H. If we have the servant attitude, there
is no difficulty of putting our goals in
subservience to that of God’s, in order that
harmony may be achieved.
43. And if you have noticed, the acronym
spells T-R-I-U-M-P-H.
