Centre verse (Judges 12:3)"And when I saw that ye delivered me not,I put my life in my hands, and passed over against the children of Ammon,and the LORD delivered them into my hand:wherefore then are ye come up unto me this day, to fight against me?" TEXT: JUDGES 12:1-6.Life is full of difficult tasks. A times,this difficult tasks could be overwhelming and apparently insurmountable. As a result of that, some people will throw their hands into the sky in total surrender not having a drop of sweat. But those who capture the bull by the horn encounter their difficult tasks, identifying all obstacles as stepping stones until they sing the overcoming song. Jephthah was confronted with immediate danger of evaluation of his people by the Ephraimites who determined to mobilize his men for war. He has looked up to the people of Ephraim for help during the time Ammonites came against them,the help he never obtained. Ephraim was exactly searching for an excuse to spike Gilead perhaps underestimating their military capability. Even those Ephraimites who escaped were equally butchered as they failed the pronunciation test of Shibboleth. There are pronounced lessons to learn from the arrangement and leadership of Jephthah. It was inspiring. He mobilized, inspired and instilled confidence into his people to handle the challenge of the children of Ephraim. And at last,they conquered. Today, Jephthah had a legacy as the man who said,as regards his vow to God:"I have opened my mouth unto the LORD, and I cannot go back "(Judges 11:35). Victory is waiting for all who had made up their mind,like Jephthah, in fighting the battles of life. Christ Jesus did not promise anyone an easy life. In the world He say,Christian shall have tribulations that He will support the courageous to be victorious and prevail. REMEMBER THIS: Courage is all about taking bull by the horn. Further Bible verses:1 Samuel 19:5;Job 13:14.Source:http://christiangospelng..com.ng/2017/10/your-existence-in-your-hand.html Label:Daily devotional.
