The Left-Handed Warrior
Description
At a time in history when Israel desperately needed a deliverer, God chose an ordinary man-someone society had overlooked. He chose Ehud-a left-handed man who was daring enough to let God use his handicap to free a nation from Moabite oppression. The story of Ehud is one commonly passed over or forgotten, but it is much more than just the historical account of a biblical underdog victory. This is a story about God using regular people to do the unthinkable.
The Left-Handed Warrior is a story about people like you and me. Many times, the very thing that we've viewed as a handicap is actually the strategic plan of God to bring our success. Left-handed warriors were very uncommon, even viewed as weak and inferior in their day. For this specific task, God didn't choose just any warrior-He chose a left-handed warrior. Anyone else would have failed; anyone else would have been exposed. Anyone else wouldn't have been the left-handed warrior.
Our world is in need of left-handed warriors today-not actual stealth killers, but people who dream big dreams and accomplish impossible tasks. You may be the one they never saw coming! Inside each of us dwells incredible potential, incredible possibilities, and incredible exploits. I believe inside each of us there lies a left-handed warrior.
