I attended "God of the city" at Salem church in town yesterday. The preacher talk among other things about 1 Samuel 14,6-7:
Jonathan said to his young armor-bearer, "Come, let's go over to the outpost of those uncircumcised fellows. Perhaps the LORD will act in our behalf. Nothing can hinder the LORD from saving, whether by many or by few."
"Do all that you have in mind," his armor-bearer said. "Go ahead; I am with you heart and soul."
Israel with Saul as King where at war with the Philistines and Jonathan just walked in faith. He did not have a big revelation that God would do something. He just walked in faith, not knowing if God wanted to do something or not. He did not ask God for confirmation that this was Gods will, he just went to the Philestines´ outpost and there he got to know if God wanted to do something or not. Its cool how much faith he had and I know that I am asking God for confirmation all the time, thinking this can´t be from God. And than I do not do it, but God wants us to walk in faith and not by confirmation(bekreftelse).
Have a nice day and God bless you! =)
