Here we stand. The few, scattered across this land. Often alone, yet united in Christ. Like Gideon’s army, only 300 against the Midianite hordes. (Judges 7:15-21) We stand, vastly outnumbered, but we stand in obedience. We stand by faith in the might of our God.
And like they, we stand with a torch and a trumpet.
A torch- the Light of the Glorious Gospel. Jesus Christ, the Light of Truth, the Brightness of Gods glory.
And a trumpet- with the high praises of God in our mouth. For they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony. (Rev 12:11)
Will you stand with me? Vastly, hopelessly outnumbered, standing against the overwhelming hoards marching the other direction. Standing shoulder to shoulder, standing in Him. For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty in God for the pulling down of strongholds. (2 Cor 10:4) Some will trust in horses and in chariots, but I will trust in the Lord my God. (Ps 20:7)
No matter how intimidating our foe. No matter how well planned or well armed they may be. Even if we stand against them with no earthly weapon at all in our hand. We are more well-armed than they.
For we stand with a torch and a trumpet
