Judges 7:4-7

When Gideon came to God for aid n the battle with the Midianites he had thousands of men with him ready to fight for him, but the lord said that there were too many men for God to use. So God made a test to divide up the people (vs.5) "the LORD said unto Gideon, Every one that lappeth of the water with his tongue, as a dog lappeth, him shalt thou set by himself; likewise every one that boweth down upon his knees to drink." (vs.6) "And the number of them that lapped, putting their hand to their mouth, were three hundred men: but all the rest of the people bowed down upon their knees to drink water" And he division strategy worked to perfection. (vs.7) And the LORD said unto Gideon, By the three hundred men that lapped will I save you, and deliver the Midianites into thine hand: and let all the other people go every man unto his place."

God you are something amazing, with only 300 men you delivered the enemies into Gideon's hands and with you leading them all their troubles mean nothing. Just as in today's times I will never need to fear because you will lead me and my troubles mean nothing when I have faith in you.
