Jonathan attack the Philistine, but he did not tell his father.
Perhaps the Load will act in our behalf. Nothing can hinder the Load from saving, weather by many or by few.
Jonathan recognized the sign of the Load by reaction of the enemy's word; "wait there till we come to you", and" come up to us" , that be their sign of the Load.
Jonathan went up and killed some twenty men in an area of about half an acre and the ground shook. It was a panic sent by God.Philistine in total confusion, striking each other with their swords. So the Load rescued Israel that day.
Why?
Jonathan is a looking for God's will to do the next action, he is not seating there wait only under the stress situation.
Jonathan has courage and outstanding faith to the Load, he believed the Load's rescue is not relate by many or few.
Bring the Ark might be the ephod rather than Ark, the lots which were cast to discover God's will.
Jonathan and his armour bearer seem to have been taken for deserter, so they were able to catch the Philistine unawares.
How?
To know God's will sometimes are not follow the formal or usual manner, it might come from the enemy's word.
Not only faith but also the courage makes the work of the Load to be done. I need more courage to do the work of the Load, but I need to search the sign from the Load.
