We all have our own Midianites to face. By studying Gideon's strategy we can learn how we too can defeat the Midianites.
The haughty will be humbled by God. The humble will be honoured by God. As Christians, we are to humble ourselves before the Lord so that He may exalt us in His timing.
God is certainly a God of mercy and love. But He is also a God of judgment. Are you pushing the limits with God? Are you heading for judgment?
Are you going through a period of time where you feel that God has forgotten you? Choose to accept the authority of the scriptures over your feelings and know God has not forsaken you.
Not a message about one person like Gideon, but about a condition of this life. It is called despair meaning all hope is gone. The Lord has left us on our own. Throughout scripture, God gives us examples of those who seemed to be left by the Lord and thought they had been deserted by Him but later found that He hadn't left them at all.
