Spiritual Warfare The Armor of God

Judges 7:16-22
Then he divided the three hundred men into three companies, and
he put a trumpet into every man's hand, with empty pitchers, and
torches inside the pitchers.

And he said to them, "Look at me and do likewise; watch, and when
I come to the edge of the camp you shall do as I do:

When I blow the trumpet, I and all who are with me, then you also
blow the trumpets on every side of the whole camp, and say, "The
sword of the Lord and of Gideon!"

So Gideon and one hundred men who were with him came to the
outpost of the camp at the beginning of the middle watch, just as
they had posted the watch; and they blew the trumpets and broke
the pitchers that were in their hands.

Then the three companies blew the trumpets and broke the
pitchers. They held the torches in their left hands and the
trumpets in their right hands for blowing, and they cried, 
"The sword of the Lord and of Gideon!"

And every man stood in his place all around the camp; and the
whole army ran and cried out and fled.

When the three hundred blew the trumpets, the Lord set every
man's sword against his companion throughout the whole
camp;

Matthew 3:11
I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance, but He who is
coming after me mightier than I, whose sandals I am not worthy to
carry, He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and
fire.

With the picture of Gideon and the broken pitchers in your mind,
think about how God can use you and flow through you if your
"vessel" is broken.

satan is not afraid of you or me, but he is deathly afraid of the
fire of God. (The Holy Spirit)
