Tonight's family reading · Beni
Gideon's Small Army — a 5-minute devotion for Beni families
Judges 7 · God shrinks the odds on purpose
Gideon had thirty-two thousand men. God said it was too many, and cut the army to three hundred — armed with trumpets, jars and torches. The victory could belong to nobody but God.
Use this one on the Beni weekend, when there is room for a longer conversation. Read Judges 7, talk through the question properly, then write the memory verse somewhere everyone will see it on Monday.
Memory verse
“You have too many men. Israel would boast against me.”Judges 7:2
Table question
When has something gone right in a way you could not take credit for?
30-second prayer
God, you do not need our numbers. Use our small offering however you like. Amen.
Make it stick: on the way through Beni tomorrow, one person says the first half of "You have too many men. Israel would boast against me." and someone else finishes it. Three tries and it is memorised.
Tomorrow: Gideon's fleece (Judges 6:36-40). ArkQuest queues the next reading automatically, so nobody has to decide what comes after tonight.
On Mount Carmel, Elijah rebuilt an altar of twelve stones before calling on the Lord. What did the twelve stones represent?
