The Lord told him that the people were too many. He wanted only 300 people to win the war and not the multitude of 33,000. He eliminated some and using only 300 people they won the war.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s not much that can help you achieve. You may think you need to add some more to do certain things in life. You may want to reach certain numbers in order to achieve certain targets. It\u2019s not always like that. Listen to the Spirit of God. He will guide you to what you need to do. Remember it\u2019s not by might nor by power but by the Spirit (Zach 4:6).<\/p>\n<p>1Corinthian 2:14 \u201cA person who isn\u2019t spiritual doesn\u2019t accept the things of God\u2019s Spirit, for they are nonsense to him. He can\u2019t understand them because they are spiritually evaluated.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It may look nonsense to take 300 instead of 33,000. But when God is on your side you can achieve with 300 what 33,000 could not achieve. You may achieve much more with your current team. You may achieve a lot with your financial status. You can still achieve with your current age. Just allow the Spirit to lead and guide you. The power to do work is based on the Holy Spirit (Acts1:8) and not on your numbers.<\/p>\n<p>CONFESSION I am led by the spirit. I making progress and impacting the lives of many. I am moving from glory to glory through the Spirit of God who strengthens me. In Jesus name.
