Learn From Gideon, 8



~ God Is All You Need For Victory ~

The Biblical account of the life of Gideon provides for one of the most interesting character studies in all of Scripture.  In this series we will discover practical lessons for living the Christian life today.  

Scripture  ~  Then the Lord turned to him and said, ‘Go in this might of yours, and you shall save Israel from the hand of the Midianites.  Have I not sent you?’” (Judges 6:14).

Learn From Gideon  ~  If God calls then God will equip! 
  1. God does not accomplish His purposes through man’s strength.  “Go in this might of yours” is only meaningful when God is in it. 
  2. God accomplishes His work through His attributes of knowledge, power, and through the working of the Holy Spirit. 
  3. In the process the weak confound the strong, the first become last and the last first, and death leads to life. 

concluding comment  ~  We learn about Gideon primarily from Judges 6-8, but also Isaiah 9:1-7, and Hebrews 11:1-3, 32-34.
