Tonight's family reading · Trieste
Gideon's Small Army — a 5-minute devotion for Trieste 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.
This works best in Trieste as a bedtime reading. Lights low, Judges 7 read slowly, the memory verse said twice, then the prayer. Younger children fall asleep on "god shrinks the odds on purpose"; older ones usually want to argue about it first, which is fine.
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: ask the same question again at breakfast tomorrow. Answers change overnight, and hearing that change is how a child learns that god shrinks the odds on purpose is something you practise, not something you know.
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?
