Heart and Soul
1 Samuel 14:7
"Do all that you have in mind," his armor-bearer said. "Go ahead; I am with you heart and soul."
The action moves to Jonathan, son of Saul, who decides to take the initiative against the Philistines, just he and his armor-bearer. He justifies it casually: "Perhaps the LORD will act in our behalf. Nothing can hinder the LORD from saving. . ."
I like that. Perhaps the Lord will act in our behalf. If He doesn't, He doesn't. If He does, I want to be there.
The unnamed armor-bearer has a huge part in this, immediately giving his vote of confidence and pledging his support. "I am with you heart and soul."
God did act, and these two were rewarded with the victory while Saul sat around back at the base camp.
