I refer you to
Deuteronomy 7:7-8
"The LORD set his heart on you and chose you, even though you didn't outnumber all the other people. You were the smallest of all nations.
You were chosen because the LORD loved you and kept the oath he swore to your ancestors. So he used his mighty hand to bring you out. He freed you from slavery under Pharaoh (the king of Egypt)."

Here is an instance wherein God chose the winners (Israelites) and the losers (the Pharaoh and his army). Obviously Moses required God's intervention in parting the Red Sea on behalf of the winners.

RWE, the Verses you selected are talking about individual people like you and I,  not nations. You must always read the verses before and after your selected verse in order to understand the verse you selected. What you did is what many people do when selecting a verse out of a paragraph and it changes the entire meaning, which they use to put down others with.  kentay

Read it again. It's referring to Israel as a Nation. How can an individual person be outnumbered by another individual person?
The Founding Fathers established the first Dept. of Homeland Security. They called it "a Well Regulated Militia."
