God accompanies us at all times, even the worst.

God in his infinite grace, mercy and love gives us encouragement and strength to move forward, even when we have doubts and fears.

And it came to pass that night that the LORD said to him, Arise, and go down to the camp; for I have delivered it into your hand. 10 And if thou art afraid to go down, then go thou with Phurah thy servant down to the camp, 11 and thou shalt hear what they say; and then thy hands shall be strengthened, and thou shalt go down to the camp. So he went down with Phurah thy servant unto the outposts of the armed men that were in the camp. 12 And the Midianites, and the Amalekites, and the children of the east were stretched out in the valley like locusts in multitude, and their camels were without number like the sand that is on the seashore in multitude. 13 When Gideon arrived, behold, a man was telling his friend a dream. He said, “I had a dream: a barley loaf of bread rolled into the camp of Midian, and it came to the tent and struck it so that it fell and overturned it from top to bottom, so that the tent fell.” 14 His friend answered and said, “This is none other than the sword of Gideon son of Joash, a man of Israel. God has delivered the Midianites and all the camp into his hand.” 15 When Gideon heard the account of the dream and its interpretation, he worshiped and returned to the camp of Israel and said, “Get up, for the Lord has delivered the camp of Midian into your hands.” 16 He divided the three hundred men into three companies and gave them all trumpets and empty jars with torches in the jars. 17 And he said to them, “Look to me, and do as I do; behold, when I come to the outermost part of the camp, you shall do as I do. 18 I will blow the trumpet, and all who are with me; and you shall blow the trumpets all around the camp, and say, ‘For the LORD and for Gideon. ’” 19 So Gideon and the hundred men with him came to the outermost part of the camp at the beginning of the midnight watch, when the watchmen had just been renewed. They blew with the trumpets and broke the pitchers that were in their hands. 20 Then the three companies blew with the trumpets, and broke the pitchers, took the torches in their left hands, and the trumpets with which they blew in their right hands, and cried, “For the sword of the LORD and of Gideon.” 21 And they stood fast, every man in his place all around the camp. Then all the army ran away, shouting and fleeing. 22 The three hundred blew the trumpets, and the LORD turned the sword of every man against his fellow throughout the camp. So the army fled as far as Beth-shittah, toward Zererah, and as far as the border of Abel-meholah at Tabbath. 23 Then the Israelites, Naphtali, Asher, and all Manasseh gathered themselves together and pursued the Midianites. 24 Gideon also sent messengers throughout the hill country of Ephraim, saying, "Go down to meet the Midianites and seize the fords of Beth-bara and the Jordan before they come." So all the men of Ephraim gathered together and seized the fords of Beth-bara and the Jordan. 25 They took two Midianite leaders, Oreb and Zeeb, and killed Oreb at the rock of Oreb, and Zeeb they killed at the winepress of Zeeb. And after they pursued the Midianites, they brought the heads of Oreb and Zeeb to Gideon across the Jordan.

Judges 7:9-25

In the previous post we read how God has acted through the life of Gideon in the army, before more than 30 thousand men he reduced it to 300 and later led them to a sure battle.
After all this Gideon was about to attack the enemy camp, he would attack the army of more than 130 thousand men with only 300 men, this generated anxiety. God has allowed God to listen to soldiers of the enemy army talk about the dream he had, the soldier's dream revealed the victory of the people of Israel. God has allowed this to happen to show that he was attentive to Gideon's situation, in the same way he acts with us today, God is attentive to our fears and acts in our favor.

When Gideon arrived, behold, a man was telling his companion a dream, saying, "Behold, I had a dream: and behold, a barley loaf of bread rolled to the camp of Midian, and it came to the tent, and struck it so that it fell, and it overturned from top to bottom, and the tent fell."

Judges 7:13

Let us remember, for example, when we talk to a friend and receive words of encouragement, receiving encouragement at the right time is very important. The same happens in the case of listening to a sermon or reading a verse that gives us hope and encouragement. All of these are elements that strengthen trust in God. All of our doubts are dispelled with trust in God.
Today's challenge is to remember those moments in which God has given us victory and has strengthened us at different times, this allows us to rely on His faithfulness.
