The Lord just gave me this Word as I was praying about the current situation with the virus. God gave me an image of God preparing an army, His people the true church. God gave me chapter 7 of Judges. I saw them kneeling down to drink water and those who drank like dogs. God showed me the people in the church are going to be tested just like in Judges and divided from those who are going into the battle and those that aren't going to qualify for the battle. The time at home in isolation isn't a vacation for the church, it's for getting ready spiritually. God wants families to prepare from the smallest child to the oldest. We're all soldiers in this army if we want to be used by God. What we do during these times will determine if we enter the battlefield or we get taken out. The point God made to me was that He is gathering an army of believers who want to join with Him in this battle. He wants the church to be prepared and ready. Those that are preparing right now are going to see miracles take place when we go into that battlefield just like the army of Gedeon. We will be small but mighty in the Lord. Are we willing? That's the question...God is testing the church right now to determine that.
I'm laughing because God is using this message to convict me about getting to the root of issues in my life. And they say God does not speak...Please. I'm heading him loud and clear. God help me to walk in obedience to your Word to keep my heart pure in your sight so that I can be used for your honour and glory in Jesus name.
Hi!!! Pastor Paul I'm your new family member here!!! I'm very much blessed by your sermon. Please pray for me so that I could continue to listen to the word of God through you, inorder to live in obedience to the word of God.
On October 1st 2019 I began reading the Bible and by December 2nd 2019 I was struggling so much with understanding the scripture (KJV) that I also began here in Judges 6-7 watching and listening to your videos and audios too. On March 1st 2020 I completed the Old Testament with you. On June 27th 2020 I completed the New Testament and began Genesis again. Yesterday August 16th 2020 I finishes where I started with your videos and audios having now watched and listened to all 1,042 of them. I thank God for the wonderful work he continues to do through you reaching people far and wide across the world as your subscriber numbers grow and grow. I thank you too; I feel I know you Paul, your family, your life, your marriage, your church, your love of muscle cars, you have made me laugh out loud and you have brought me greater insights to the word due to your wonderful ways of delivery; so as I began Judges 8 again today, August 17th 2020, I also thank you too Pastor Paul. Grace and Peace be with you.
Same boat here, truly helps you understand His word ( enduring word with David Guzik also does this with the whole Bible, they both have a truly unique way about them that opens the Bible up for Newbies! All glory to The Almighty Lord💕May God Bless Pastor Paul, he will have a special crown awaiting him in heaven for helping lead us to the Lord💕
In ancient warfare there was one torch bearer for every 20 or 30 troops. So when the Midianites saw 300 torches, they figured the whole place was seething with 6000 to 9000 (plus) attackers. This was a brilliant strategy. It may even have been the same ratio with the trumpet players. Brilliant strategy.
@@janibaldonado9173 Thank you. And look on it logically, they couldn't hold a torch in one hand and a trumpet in the other, and then also fight with a sword and shield at the same time.
@@horseandcart5978 The additional knowledge you provided bolsters the pastor's message and galvanizes the Word of God... What was "the might" Gideonn was to "go in"? "Emmanuel" - "God With Us". And Gideon has zero pretense about himself, no falsehood, so he embraces truth (light), the entire account. So, when it comes time for "strategy" and "logic" it proceeds that Gideon would not take swords or shields to battle (not even empty fists)! Because he understood - he got it. "The might", the "artillery" the "fightign power" was GOD WITH HIM. So, Gideon's battle plan was falling in line with the ranks of the army the Lord sent to fight - the Hosts of Heaven! The only thing needed was lamp bearers for it was night and darkness was upon the land... and shofar (trumpet) blowers... and wherever the sound of the shofar was heard the armies gathered there. I have been blessed to recently hear a sermon at my church from Joshua 5:12-15. May the Spirit guide the reader.
The battles of the Lord must be fought while walking in faith. Get the unbelief out of here. Making it clear who will be winning the battle. God loves the long odds. He provides the confidence necessary to accomplish the goal. The Lord's power is made perfect in our weakness. The glory belongs to the Lord. Our weakness can be made into strength but only with God's help. In our weakness the power of God can rest on us...and then we become strong.
🔥 2 Corinthians 12:9-10 I will boast of my weaknesses gladly so that the power of Christ may rest on me. 🔥Zechariah 4:6 So he said to me, “This is the word of the LORD to Zerubbabel: ‘Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,’ says the LORD Almighty.

Good morning I appreciate and watch you on TH-cam for the past eight months or so learned so much. Thank you for all you do! I pray that the good Lord keeps working on you and through you God bless! I have a question, so you say that Gideon was doubting The Lord, or was he actually discerning parents for our God is a consuming fire if you get a chance to answer this question at the end of your mom how are you always do which I appreciate very much would be greatly appreciated. I have one pastor/counselor/true prophet of God who claims he was as sings the spirits
I believe we are under a new covenant but I believe there is wisdom in the mosaic laws and we should try our best to obey them and their spirit. (I don’t want to eat crows and lizards 😂)
I listened to this Pastor everyday. Keep him Lord.
I listen to a LOt of pastors on YT but there is something special how our Lord uses Pastor Paul to break it down for a layman! Thank you Jesus Christ!
I always say this
Amen Lord to your word.

I’m brought to tears every time these great pastors help me interpret the Bible and remind me of exactly how relevant scripture is today.

This is because he is preaching out of the bible with hardly any opinion. great word.

Thank you Jesus, for using Pastor Paul to speak Your word. This was a great message that I needed to hear.
Yes
The God of Odds!!! My heart does bless you Lord. For when I am weak you make me strong in you, to know I could not have done this of myself 🔥
Praise the Lord
🔥 2 Corinthians 12:9-10

This is fire
I believe we are under a new covenant but I believe there is wisdom in the mosaic laws and we should try our best to obey them and their spirit. (I don’t want to eat crows and lizards 😂)
❤️💙🧡💛💚💜
Question
Are the 10 commandments still valid up to now/today???
Thank you
You might appreciate Pastor Paul's blog here: pastor-paul-cco.blogspot.com/2018/09/q-are-christians-under-law-of-moses-and.html
Wow
💕🙏💕
❤️
What about the law on murder, incest and all other forms of wickedness????? There are Mosaic covenant terms that still hold today.
Romans 15:4 is the Scripture you were referring to.
Where is Gillywifeofmark ?
