And the Lord said to Gideon, with three hundred men that lapped will I save you and deliver the Midianites into thine hand: and let all the other people go every man unto his place.

7.7 Judges

... But if you say that if you have faith, then shows that there is fruit in you, your character in your life, your talk, in your posture, your job, your house, testifying ... FRUIT ... but given that is the fate of the FE, BEARING FRUIT! ... if not, do not be surprised to be the least considered, still have problems, not having the blessing of hope, the section or feel out of place, let alone if he were the time of your death.

But would you change? Begin to pray, drop in prayer, pray and not get tired of praying ...

FE, by the hand of the Lord

And the Lord said to Gideon, with three hundred men that lapped will I save you and deliver the Midianites into thine hand: and let all the other people go every man unto his place.

7.7 Judges

The fifth judge of Israel, an expert military strategist, bold and intelligent alibis, untimely, maybe even a little arrogant, but full of passion for his people, full of fear only God, the Hall of Faith in Hebrews 11 where it says: v.32-34 "but I say so what? For time would fail me to tell of Gideon, Barak, Samson, Jephthah, of David and Samuel and the prophets: Who through faith subdued kingdoms, wrought righteousness, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, quenched the violence of fire, escaped sword, from weakness were made strong in war, put foreign armies to flight. "

And while Gideon's life was not perfect, what do the scriptures tell us is that this judge was also man, so God had a plan, was also an instrument in the hands of God once said his heart and FE had, when he trusted was used, when he ran certainty ... and that faith, that confidence, that certainly gives you only God gives you the Holy Spirit when you ask when you're on the threshold of implementing things powerful, when you're in front of the human decision-making and spiritual, for which the former is narrated time "... then came over him (or her) the Spirit of God came upon him ... or the spirit of inspiration, the spirit of courage, the spirit of power ... "and found him and testify as an inescapable and absolute truth, because that God works in the middle of nowhere, in the midst of despair, in the midst of terror ..." because as you do not know where it comes from the air, or where you are going and not know the way of the Spirit .... "

Gideon's ministry began in a town of Ofra in Manasseh, with the very presence of the Angel of Jehovah, ie our Lord Jesus Christ, who was sitting under an oak which Gideon had to hide the wheat belts of Midian and Amalek thieves when he said: "JHWH is with you mighty man of valor. And Gideon said unto him, Oh my Lord, if Jehovah is with us, why is all this befallen us? And where are all his miracles which our fathers told us, saying, Did not the Lord brought us out of Egypt? And now the Lord has forsaken us and delivered us into the hand of Midian. "(Judges 6.12-13) and pretend I'm listening to many of you during or after a sermon or Sunday school, where you translates the blessing of God, which tells you what God's purpose for your life, give you encouragement to keep going, then we dare to say: God is really me? Or does God really is in this place? God Really does wonders and miracles? Really God wants me to use? Many say arrogance and pride, some for a low opinion of themselves, others by unbelievers, but the point is NOT to believe! Do not believe in God, believe in their promises, do not believe in his word, for when God says "Fear not I am with you" "Be strong and courageous" when he says "dedicate your life, spend your time, spend your offerings "we often say NO! For that, why waste my time? Why should I try? V.14 ... Judges 6 "LORD turned to him and said, Go in this thy might, and thou shalt save Israel from the hand of Midian. Do not I sent thee? "Two important points here ... first) that the way in which Gideon had to answer, surely was not a passive or quiet or Mexican to say what we saw in verse 14, but he should have answered furiously, with courage, with maybe anger, hatred. Notice how the human being is a portable chemical laboratory, feelings, words, attitudes ... and Gideon is the test, because after that they had stolen the thieves would not be happy not going to say: "What a joy, happiness" (jump, jump) and gave a flower to the wicked, no! I was going to feel anger, powerlessness and would feel his words expressed what his heart felt ... and I wonder is not that what we also happens every day? Is the day of prayer, the day of worship? Or maybe the day of the test or when the money runs out or we goes wrong at work.

I want to say that even in the dark night, or day of testing never forsake you ... NEVER BELIEVE Jesus Christ, both because you do not have to go to tarot or fortune tellers, because you do not have to go with the midwife or speculator, you have it subtract hours to your spiritual development time for delivery to the god of overtime work. But you have to bend your knees and believe God and cry unto the living God, hear His Word, meditating on it, believing that God is with you ... you should not fear what man can do.

Second) how would he know who he was talking he was God or a prophet or false prophet? When there is a message from God, there is always a reprimand and / or encouragement, because you do not believe, or have not thought or plan you have deviated from the true path 8.3-5 Jeremiah says, "choose death rather than life all the remainders of this evil, in all places where I throw those who remain, says the Lord of hosts. Also tell them: Thus saith the Lord: He who falls, do not get up? Whoever deviates, did not return to the road? Why is this people of Jerusalem rebel perpetual backsliding? Hold fast deceit, they refuse to return. " But those who do become scripture says: John 10.27-28 "My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me and I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish, neither shall anyone snatch them out of my hand. " Therefore if there is a word of God into your life, you have to be corrected, exhorted and comforted, you should be admonished, reprimanded perhaps to remove all the cobwebs, to remove all trash, to heal all wounds because the Lord loves the father corrects the son in whom he delights. And talk about this too must say that the very word of God, prophecy of God, the preaching of the Spirit must also have redemption, restoration, healing and growth. Want to see? Verse 14 says. "... Go in this thy might (there is the rebuke), and save Israel (there is restoration) ... do not you send me? (There is the promise that God is with you) "

God looks at you, you see, God has seen you get angry, as you sad ... but God has provided a tremendous thing for you, use you God has promised that powerful instrument for you ... do not you says the Lord?

The word translated power in this verse is the word "Koah" that is, power, power and means "ability to enforce the will of its own" and was reflecting what will Gideon? R: anger, rage, the character that convinced him to hide the wheat, bespoken against God, then God said "Go in this your anger, your anger go, go with that character pulgoso you have ... and free your people Israel "and now saith the Lord is your strength with these, go with your character and save it to your family, go with your character and he succeeds in school work, doing things right ... when ask someone at work: who knows how to do the right thing, without fail? Say: "The Christian, the Christian" because we are children of God, we must prove it, we must win hearts and minds in the name of Jesus, we must triumph over adversity, we have the character to accept our failure, ask forgiveness, restore our hearts and those who have offended and go forward hand in hand of Christ, seeing him as we see Peter walking on water ... when Peter saw Jesus could walk on water, in the midst of the storm, in the middle waves, but stopped watching when it began to sink, he began to choke, began to die ... and it was not because Jesus offered his hand and scolded him: "Why did you doubt ye of little faith?"

Brothers do not many days we talked about that now is the time to wake up, it's time to grow, it is when we have achieved together victories in Christ Jesus because when the opponent wins division, when you impose your opinion and not the opinion the adversary of God triumphs, when no care for the people is the thief and steal the sheep, when no strength of Christian character and if you enclose the host whims of evil, when you have no doctrine (...) every wind of doctrine comes and breaks down any teaching, any video, any pseduo-Christian, or grim testimony convinces you and you stumble ... and therefore further evidence of the world, and you shudder you ... because you move away, because you have caused dissension or division, when you doubt, when you did not believe, when you lacked faith, as you will then be in the temple with the brothers, singing and praising, seeking to serve ... but I lack faith ... then the whole body suffers, all the body aches and growth stops.

The Lord does not ask much ... "If you had FAITH AS THE SIZE OF THE MUSTARD SEED" not long ago the pastor gave small bags with mustard seeds (...) If your faith were so small you would do great things, if only had the smallest seeds of faith would work miracles and wonders, not claudicarías, sowed the seed for the LOVE of God through an instrument placed so that you will find this beautiful road, the growth is given by Christ gives the Spirit Ghost, but the fruit to give you what you ... if you do not give the result for (a) to be uprooted and be thrown (a) in the eternal fire.

But if you say that if you have faith, then shows that there is fruit in you, your character in your life, your talk, in your posture, your job, your house, testifying ... FRUIT ... but given that is the fate of the FE, BEARING FRUIT! ... if not, do not be surprised to be the least considered, still have problems, not having the blessing of hope, the section or feel out of place, let alone if the need time of your death.

But would you change? Begin to pray, drop in prayer, pray and not get tired of praying at the time of day to remember that God is with you and say "! Help me God!" Take a minute wherever you are, at home, in subway, the bus, in the office, give him a minute and that minute of quality in prayer to God. And earlier in the day, and at the end of the day and pray to God, not just when you pray for food, but given sentences of quality.

All these tests of faith lead us to a final way, the road is called Jesus Christ. Even our passage may seem a little out of context but no. Perhaps the most important memory we have the testimony of Gideon's fleece testing, but I say that there is a miracle before and after action. The action is as follows: When Gideon in Judges chapter 7, calls for the warriors to battle, 32,000 men congregate, this is what the Lord says "many for me to save" is not the people <por say their own forces have been salvos> so he said, "those who are afraid or tremble little legs, get up early and go" and the next day were 22,000 men and were 10.000 and the Lord said to Gideon, "even are many, but go to the water (eye symbol of the Spirit) and there you will test and those who humble themselves, are inclined to water and lick like dogs, they will not go, but those who bow down and take in your hand water and carry it to his mouth, they will go to battle "and they were 300 men ... or a total of 32,000 there were only 300, even 10% or 5%, not even 1%, but with God gave them victory to Gideon and his people, because after being tested on the FE, everything that followed was fruit of faith, moved as seeing the invisible, believed and was reckoned as righteousness.

And if you still do not believe, I will show the first miracle Judges 6.18-23 and the staff is the word of God, you turn your offering, which fills the quickened, that tells you consume ... and not die, you shall not perish but up to you to bring your gift ... because here you have heard the voice of the Lord and have placed in your gift Ebenezer and his promise of eternal life is fulfilled in your heart.
