Gideon Learned to Trust God

August 18, 2024

Passage: Judges

God had a special job for Gideon. God wanted Gideon to help
God’s people, the Israelites.
At first Gideon was not sure he could do this job. But God told
Gideon He would be with him and help him.
So, Gideon and all the people with him traveled to a place called
Midian. Gideon’s men camped near a spring. Now Gideon waited.
Then God told Gideon he had too many soldiers. So Gideon told
the men who were afraid that they could go back home. Many men
chose to leave the camp and go back to their families.
Then God told Gideon to send the rest of the men to the spring
to drink water. God had a plan—God told Gideon to look carefully at
the men while they drank water. Everyone who drank water using
his hands like a cup would stay to help Gideon. All the rest of the
men would go home.
Gideon followed God’s instructions. Now just a few men would
work together to help the Israelites. But Gideon knew God would
help him.
Later, God told Gideon to divide the men into three groups. The
men carried trumpets and blew them loudly.
That day God showed Gideon what to do to help God’s people.
God showed the people that God’s plan was best, and God can do
anything.
