Gideon

Judges 6:11-16

• v6:11 - He was fearful. He was threshing in the winepress at the time when God needed men of courage to rise up.
• v6:12 - “Mighty warrior” – God saw his potential
• v6:14 - “Go in the strength you have” - do not worry, just do your best.
• v6:15 - Gideon claimed he was too insignificant and unimpressive to follow or obey God
• v6:16 - As with Gideon, God will be with you!

Gideon repented of his fear and excuses and rescued his nation from the enemy – powerfully and bravely!
