A Sword For The Lord - Judges 7:20 - Love and War - Family Altar Service

When God Wins the Fight: Gideon's Trumpets and Torches (Judges 7:20) "Grasping the torches in their left hands and holding in their right hands the trumpets they were to blow, they shouted, 'A sword for the Lord and for Gideon!'" (Judges 7:20, NIV) Gideon's men went into battle without swords in their hands. Trumpets in one hand, torches in the other. And God won the fight. This morning's family service follows one thread through the Old Testament: Cain, who was told he could rule over sin and chose not to (Genesis 4:7) Abraham, who took 318 trained men from his own household to rescue Lot from the kings of the earth (Genesis 14) Joshua at Jericho, where the walls fell at a shout, not a battering ram (Joshua 6) Gideon, whose 300 men broke their jars, lifted their torches, blew their trumpets, and watched God scatter an army (Judges 7) Every time, God's people were given authority. Every time, the battle was won God's way, not theirs. The same is true for your family today. You were never meant to fight on willpower. The weapons God gave you are already sitting in your Bible. Most of us were just never shown how to use them. 📖 FREE: The 3 Weapons field manual The three weapons God already put in your hands, and how to use them at home this week. 👉 https://kfamadv.com/yt We do family service live, with our kids, as a family.
