Never Quit

Scripture:

Judges 8:4 "Gideon then crossed the Jordan river with his 300 men, and though exhausted, they continued to chase the enemy".

Observation:

Gideon and his men had fought with all they had and had pretty much defeated an arm that was massive compared to them. When we get to this verse we see an awesome statement, "though exhausted, they continued to chase the enemy". Gideon and his small army were not willing to give up or slow down until their job was completely finished and the enemy totally defeated.

Application:

Many times in life I see people who quit or give up just before the breakthrough. Many times in life we fight hard, then get tired of not seeing complete victory, and we throw in the towel. We need to be more like Gideon who would not rest until victory was complete. He was exhausted, but still pursuing the enemy! We need that same determination in our walk with God. We must not give up until God says to.

Prayer:

Father, help me to press on when exhausted. Help me to no give up on things until You say stop. Help me to finish the tasks You have given me and to fight the enemy until he is totally defeated. Give me strength to route the enemy in Ashburn, VA, Northern VA and the world.

Yours,
