Gideon and the defeat he had against the Midianites is a foreshadow of the victory that Christ will have on the Last Day when He defeats His enemies, brings judgment, and consummates His kingdom. Gideon had victory over the enemy after blowing a trumpet, breaking pitchers that had torches inside, letting the light from torches shine, and shouting "the sword for the Lord and for Gideon." When Christ returns it will be with a trumpet being blown, Him shattering all His enemies like earthenware, Him coming in fire, and Him defeating the enemy with the sharp sword out of His mouth. We also can see our salvation in this story as well. We are earthen vessels that are brought to brokenness and mourning over our sins by the power of the Holy Spirit. He shines the Light of Himself and the gospel into our hearts and as a result the Light of Christ shines out of us for the world to see. This was done by grace and mercy and not of ourselves, so our boasting is only found in Christ.
