Few stories illustrate that principle >more clearly than that of Gideon and his army of 300. God wants prepared >men to fight His battles with His weapons in His way. His weapons are >not earthly but spiritual. His ways are higher than our ways, and His >thoughts are higher than our thoughts. We want to offer God our strength >and our weapons and our insight but He does not need them. We need Him. >Rather than trying to get God to accept our plans, strategies, and >goals, we ought to strive to understand His. His way is the way of >victory. > >PRAYER > Because the Lord is our victory, we praise Him and rest in His care: >Oh, give thanks to the Lord! >Call upon His name; >Make known His deeds among the peoples. Sing to Him, sing psalms to Him; > >Talk of all His wondrous works. >Glory in His holy name; >Let the hearts of those rejoice who seek the Lord (Psalm 105:1-3). > > Pause for praise and thanksgiving. Pray this confession to the Lord as >you seek to keep your life free from sin: >"The heart is deceitful above all things, >And desperately wicked; >Who can know it? >I, the Lord, search the heart, >I test the mind, >Even to give every man according to his ways, >According to the fruit of his doings. . . ." >Heal me, O Lord, and I shall be healed; >Save me, and I shall be saved, >For You are my praise >(Jeremiah 17:9-10, 14). > > Confess any sins that the Holy Spirit brings to your mind. Now pause >to pray this affirmation to the Lord: >"If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have >kept My Father's commandments and abide in His love" (John 15:10). > > As you make your requests known to the Lord, pray for: > greater commitment to the Lord, > the work of specific Christian ministries for which you are concerned, > your activities for the day. > Offer this closing prayer to the Lord: >This is the day which the Lord has made; We will rejoice and be glad in >it. >(Psalm 118:24). > > >Quiet Walk is published by Walk Thru the Bible Ministries, Inc. in >Atlanta, GA.
