Words Win Battles

In partnership with

GM. This is Soul Food, the newsletter that peels back bible’s layer like an onion – let us do the crying for you.

✅✅✅ Here’s what’s on the agenda today:

In Judges chapter 7, Gideon stands with just 300 men facing an army far greater than their own. In their left hand they hold torches. In their right hand, trumpets. No swords. No shields. No visible weapons.

Then they shout, “A sword for the Lord and a sword for Gideon.”

What wins the battle is not steel in their hands, but sound in their mouths.

Their voices.

The light from the torches.

The noise of the horns.

The sword was not something they carried. It was something they spoke.

This is powerful. God intentionally strips Gideon’s army of physical weapons so the victory cannot be credited to strength, strategy, or skill. The only thing left is obedience and declaration.

Often we are waiting for a sword in our hand when God has already placed one in our mouth.

Your words matter more than you think. What you speak shapes the atmosphere around you. Praise confuses the enemy. Declaration releases faith. Worship invites God into the fight.

🔑🔑🔑 Key takeaways:

• God wins battles through obedience, not strength

• Your words are a spiritual weapon

• Praise and declaration shift the atmosphere
