Judges 7:15 And it was so, when Gideon heard the telling of the dream, and the interpretation thereof, that he worshipped, and returned unto the host of Israel, and said, Arise, for the Lord hath delivered into your hand the host of Midian.
The Angel of the Lord appeared to Gideon, the angel gave him the sign of a burning rock, He made the fleece dry, then He made the fleece wet, and He whittled the army down to 300 men, lest Israel vaunt themselves. After all that, Gideon still needed faith and courage. So the Lord had him eavesdrop on the enemy camp, where he heard talk of a dream in which Gideon won the battle. This latest event encouraged and strengthened him all the more.
Then in response he worshipped the Lord and spoke with confident faith, assuring the 300 of the Lord’s victory. Worship is our response when we hear the gospel of Jesus’ past, present, and future victory over Sin, Death, and the Devil. This word and promise is the sword of the Lord. We do not worship the Lord just because we are commanded to, but because we have heard, understood, and believed the Word of God. Worship is the response of our whole life and our never-pausing attitude. A weekly worship life leads to a daily life of worship. When we march under His banner of love we go from victory unto victory, until every foe is vanquished and Christ is Lord indeed. So we worship. Constant worship comes from constant forgiveness and never-ending grace.
