A Great Thing Happened Judges 7: Gideon, with his army of 300 men selected by God, put the oppressors to flight, who were “like grasshoppers for multitude; and their camels were without number, as the sand by the seaside for multitude.” Judges 7: 22-8:21 – they pursued and conquered the oppressors.

17 And he said to them, “Look at me and do likewise; watch, and when I come to the edge of the camp you shall do as I do.”

“Great things” can still happen when… 1.Good men step up and take the lead.  “Look on me, and do likewise… as I do, so shall you do” (7:17) God still desires and expects leadership.  I Pet. 5:1-4 – examples to the flock  1 Tim. 3:1-7 – examples in character  1 Tim. 4:12 – examples in all actions  Eph. 5:23 – husbands in God’s design  Eph. 6:4 – fathers to take lead in developing their children spiritually
