In the fourth and final week of our series “Growing through Challenges” we see Gideon's 300 men (with horns and torches) routing 135,000 Amalekites. Their battle cry is “The Sword of the Lord and of Gideon,” which contains two vital truths: first, that all power is from the Lord (as we learned last week)—thus the Sword is the Lord's. The second truth is that the Lord works in us and through us with our cooperation. So the Sword was also Gideon's.
