1Sa13:5-6 The Philistines assembled to fight Israel, with three thousand chariots, six thousand charioteers, and soldiers as numerous as the sand on the seashore. They went up and camped at Mikmash, east of Beth Aven. When the Israelites saw that their situation was critical and that their army was hard pressed, they hid in caves , thickets, among the rocks, in pits and cisterns.
What would you do when the bookmaker gives an absolute losing odd against you?.That was the exact situation with the Israelites . One group had only three thousand weaponless army fighting against an army with three thousand chariots, six thousand charioteers and solders as numerous as the sand of the sea. As you would expect ,the Israelites quacked in fear and went to hiding .But who won the battle? It was the Israelites.(14:8-23)
This is the exact situation we are in; the odds are well displayed ,”we gonna lose”. We don’t _have enough medics and medicines, persistent crop failure, high exchange rates, poor food reserves , rationed water and complicated earning patterns . We are all shaking and hiding , confused and perplexed not knowing what to expect.
But even though that’s the case ,we can trust the God of odd situations and tough times who is not limited in deliverance skills and styles .Great things happen when the ordinary connects with the supernatural. No matter how difficult the situation is, you will come out victorious!
