In 1 Samuel 14:1-4 there is an interesting story concerning Israel's challenge of being overwhelmingly out numbered by the Philistines. I see it as a powerful example of what to do when we don't know what to do. Here are some quick, but powerful truths that can be extracted from this passage.
1. God can't steer a parked car.
2. Act on the last order's you received (possess the land)
3. It might not add up...but it lines up! (only two swords...yeah...but we have a sharp sword)
4. Trust him when you can’t trace Him and He will fill in the lines (God will show as we move out....)
5. Learn how to crawl before you walk. (Learn to get on your hands and knees as God directs you)
Just some simple thoughts...for some of you preachers....some fodder!
