I read about the Gideon to day. It was the time when the Israelites were being oppressed by the Midainites becuz they turned from God again. So Gid is grinding wheat in a wine press so the Midians won't see. Then all of a sudden an angel appears and tells Gid Gods with him. The reply is: No way! If Gods been oppressing us all this time then apparently he's not gonna help now.(I guess he wasn't freaked out about an angel appearing out of nowhere telling him God's with him.) The Lord says, Go save Israel. Gid says, how can I save Israel? The Lord says, I'll be with you.
So after all the rest of the conversation and the tests, (Do you think it was wrong to test God?) and knocking down the idols and stuff, he got rid of his soldiers until there were only 300 left. I think that was brave. There's like, millions of guys of the midianites and their camels alone are as countless as the sand on the sea shore. Lord, help me have faith like that. So the Israelites surrounded the Midianite camp, broke their pitchers against a rock,doing the same with the jars. Then they blew a horn and shouted" The sword of the Lord and of Gideon!" Holding a torch. It was enough to wake up the Midianites and confused with sleep, they thought there was a huge army. Panicking, they turned on their own guys. Go God!
