Dependency on God

For believers we should be dependent on God every day. We can't depend on ourselves. We have to depend solely on Him. He is the Source of our Strength. When God had Gideon "fight" the Moabites, there were only 300 men with Gideon. There were originally many more, but God had Gideon whittle it down to only 300 men. Then God did the miraculous. Gideon and the 300 men defeated the Moabites, and it was totally because of God. Gideon was dependent on God. Gideon realized that he was not able to defeat the Moabites, but God was able.

We should depend upon God and realize that being dependent on Him is completely healthy. Humanly it would be very unhealthy to be completely dependent on someone, but with our relationship with God we CAN and SHOULD be dependent, for He is our Creator. Don't rely on your own strength. Rely on God's strength.
