2. ECCLESIASTES 9:11
11 - I returned, and saw under the sun,
that the race is not to the swift, nor the
battle to the strong, neither yet bread to
the wise, nor yet riches to men of
understanding, nor yet favour to men of
skill; but time and chance happeneth to
them all.
4. 1 CORINTHIANS 1:27
27 - BUT GOD HATH CHOSEN THE FOOLISH THINGS
OF THE WORLD TO CONFOUND THE WISE; AND
GOD HATH CHOSEN THE WEAK THINGS OF THE
WORLD TO CONFOUND THE THINGS WHICH ARE
MIGHTY;
5. THE UNDERDOGS!
Gideon in Judges 6:15 and 7 – 300 vs. 10,000 Midanites
So he said to Him, "O my Lord, how can I save Israel? Indeed my
clan is the weakest in Manasseh, and I am the least in my father’s
house."
The four men with leprosy in 2 Kings 7:6
6 - For the Lord had made the host of the Syrians to hear a noise
of chariots, and a noise of horses, even the noise of a great host:
and they said one to another, Lo, the king of Israel hath hired
against us the kings of the Hittites, and the kings of the Egyptians,
to come upon us.
The Mission of the 12! Matthew 10:6-10
6. FOR GOD AGAIN USED THE
LEAST AND WEAKEST (IN
MAN”S EYES) TO BRING THE
VICTORY!
7. WHAT DOES THAT MEAN FOR US?
We can all be Witnesses for God and do out
reach!!! We are God’s Underdogs!
We don’t need to have the gift of gab!
We don’t need to be extroverted!
We don’t need to have good teaching skills!!!
8. WHAT DOES THAT MEAN FOR US?
God’s not looking at how articulate you are.
How strong you are.
How influential or rich you are.
He’s looking for your availability and willingness.
9. CONCLUSIONS
As Underdog would say – NEVER FEAR, UNDERDOG IS HERE!
Let us practice our trust in the keeping power of the Holy Ghost instead of fearfully hiding
out in a church sanctuary where nobody threatens us.
If you feel inadequate, instead of praying “Use me God!” Pray “Make me USEABLE God!”
The gospel is rugged. The worst thing that can happen to it is to remain unused, archived
and kept from the world. It will work if we will let it. Have FAITH!!!
We are not fishers of men until we catch them.
