31 After Ehud came Shamgar son of Anath, who struck down six hundred Philistines with an oxgoad. He too saved Israel. Judges 3:31

"These are the nations the LORD left to test all those Israelites who had not experienced any of the wars in Canaan... (4) [These nations] were left to test the Israelites to see whether they would obey the Lord's commands, which he had given their forefathers through Moses." Judges 3:1-4

"Dear friends, do not be surprised at the painful trial you are suffering, as though something strange were happening to you. (13) But rejoice that you participate in the sufferings of Christ, so that you may be overjoyed when his glory is revealed." I Peter 4:12-13

"And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast." I Peter 5:10

"The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds." 2 Corinthians 10:4

"God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. (28) He chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things— and the things that are not—to nullify the things that are, (29) so that no one may boast before him." 1 Corinthians 1:27-29

"The LORD said to Gideon, “You have too many men for me to deliver Midian into their hands. In order that Israel may not boast against me that her own strength has saved her, (3) announce now to the people, `Anyone who trembles with fear may turn back and leave Mount Gilead.'" Judges 7:2

"Dividing the three hundred men into three companies, he placed trumpets and empty jars in the hands of all of them, with torches inside." Judges 7:16

In the end, it’s always God and not us that gets the victory!

“…the same yesterday, today, and forever!”

"‘Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,' says the LORD Almighty." Zechariah 4:6

"The Spirit of the LORD came upon... Othniel...” ”...the Spirit of the LORD came upon Gideon" ”...the Spirit of the LORD came upon Jephthah... “ ”...the Spirit of the LORD came mightily upon Samson..."

"Five of you will chase a hundred, and a hundred of you will chase ten thousand, and your enemies will fall by the sword before you." Leviticus 26:8

"The LORD will grant that the enemies who rise up against you will be defeated before you. They will come at you from one direction but flee from you in seven." Deuteronomy 28:7

"Saul has slain his thousands, and David his tens of thousands." 1 Samuel 18:7

"A thousand may fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you." Psalm 91:7

"Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help, who rely on horses, who trust in the multitude of their chariots and in the great strength of their horsemen, but do not look to the Holy One of Israel, or seek help from the LORD." Isaiah 31:1
