“Thou mighty man of valor...thou shalt save Israel from the Midianites.”
This statement was made by the angel of the Lord whose family was poor dirt farmers. And to make things even worse, the man was considered the least in his house. But God delights to do His greatest works with the least means.
God’s champion was threshing wheat. Who would have believed the innumerable army of the Midianites’ greatest antagonist would come from a farmhouse? As someone has said, “Genius hatches her offspring in strange places.” Humble homes can be the birthplace of mighty emancipators (Micah 5:2).
How many great leaders, minds, deliverers, and talents, are now living under the roof of a humble dwelling?
