Gideon's Small Army — a 5-minute devotion for Cape Town 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 Cape Town 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: let a child read Judges 7 out loud tomorrow instead of you. Reading it to the family is worth ten times hearing it.

Tomorrow: Gideon's fleece (Judges 6:36-40). ArkQuest queues the next reading automatically, so nobody has to decide what comes after tonight.
