”And when Gideon was come, behold, there was a man that told a dream unto his fellow, and said, Behold, I dreamed a dream, and, lo, a cake of barley bread tumbled into the host of Midian, and came unto a tent, and smote it that it fell, and overturned it, that the tent lay along. And his fellow answered and said, This is nothing else save the sword of Gideon the son of Joash, a man of Israel: for into his hand hath God delivered Midian, and all the host. And it was so, when Gideon heard the telling of the dream, and the interpretation thereof, that he worshipped, and returned into the host of Israel, and said, Arise; for the LORD hath delivered into your hand the host of Midian.“
Judges 7:13-15 KJV
The barley loaf symbolised Israel’s army that would invade and conquer the Midianites. The Body of Christ is also that one loaf, rolling down Mount Zion destroying the tents of wickedness (kingdoms of this world). Jesus multiplied five barley loaves to feed more than five thousand people! The tumbling barley loaf symbolises Christ in us, Who multiplies His resurrection life and power in believers today. It is fascinating that Gideon overheard the Midianite dream interpreter speaking his name and the name of his father. Not only does God know your name, but so does the enemy, for you are a son or daughter of God! God always brings victory by the Cross of Christ. Amen!
