God uses the little insignificant things to defeat the powers of evil. God shows his omnipotent power by using the powerless to defeat our enemies. Gideon’s army defeated a numberless enemy with only 300. The only weapons they had were pitchers, lanterns and trumpets. Joshua, again had no offensive weapons but obeyed God defeated the walled city of Jericho. They defeated their enemies by obeying God and allowing God’s Spirit to defeat the enemies inspite of their weakness. "Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit saith the Lord" Zechariah 4:6.

I wrote this poem out of my admiration for the biblical character "Gideon" and his obedience to follow God’s path for victory in times of need for his people as a leader.
