Gideon\u2019s story is found in Judges 6 and 7.<\/p>\n<p>1 &#8211; Who needs saving in our story? Why? Have God\u2019s people needed saving before? Do you remember last week\u2019s story (the parting of the Red Sea)?<\/p>\n<p>So, in today\u2019s story the Israelites have once again forgotten about God. And, they are once again being mistreated. This time by the Midianites. And, once again, they call out to God for help. And, once again, God comes to save them.<\/p>\n<p>2 &#8211; Who does God choose to lead the Israelites?<\/p>\n<p>3 &#8211; Does Gideon believe that he is the right person for the job?<\/p>\n<p>Moses did not believe he was the right guy for the job either, and so God showed Moses He would be with him by turning the staff into a snake and a few other miracles. God was persistent, He never gave up on Moses. In today\u2019s story, the same thing happens. God doesn\u2019t give up on Gideon even though Gideon doubts God. So, remember, that God won\u2019t give up on you either.<\/p>\n<p>4 &#8211; How does God show Gideon that He will be with him?<\/p>\n<p>5 &#8211; Finally, Gideon accepts the job God has given him. Will you accept the jobs God gives you?<\/p>\n<p>6 &#8211; How does Gideon win the battle against the Midianites? Is this how battles are typically won?<\/p>\n<p>BONUS QUESTIONS<\/p>\n<p>7 &#8211; God calls Gideon \u201cmighty warrior\u201d. Why does He call him this, Gideon wasn\u2019t a soldier, he wasn\u2019t the biggest or the strongest?<\/p>\n<p>8 &#8211; Try to think of other \u201cwarriors\u201d in the Bible that go to battle without swords.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Truth About You\u2026My Superhero God doesn\u2019t get tired of helping. \u201cEven to your old age and gray hairs I am He, I am He who will sustain you.
