We see Joash has the reed in the wind, swayed by different doctrine. He could not make up his mind. So his son who took that step in faith ,tore down the worship site , what Joash needed. In his son stand of faith ,he was able to stand and make a choice. Gideon trust help save a nation from destruction.

God gave Gideon the assurance. I will be with you. You will smite the Midianites. as one man. What a shot in the arm for Gideon self image. I really feel like it applys to our daily walk with the Lord. I always told my children every time they went out the door ,Greater is HE who is in me than he who is in the world. Give them that assurance you are never alone, if the greater one is in you ,you can do all things. The Lord knew he needed that assurance. I ask the Lord to help me be able to fight those battles, that will come up . Because it only takes one person who prays ,to cause a rippling affect when the stone is thrown in the lake. We can do all things through JesusChrist who strenghten us.

God called Gideon a mighty man of valor. But Gideon could not see this because of the surrounding. He could only see what was before him. So he question the Lord . Why the Lord told him to go with this might of yours. If he could stand there and question. Then he became humble before the Lord when he stated ,he was least of his family. He wanted to make sure you got the right person. He had to be overwhelmed by what the Lord wanted.So the Lord spoke to him assuring him that he would be with him. So that trusting of the Lord had to be stired up in Gideon.

Praise The Lord I really enjoyed this part of the study. Has I pondered the question you ask. I seen how many times in mt own life .I was like Gideon. Its easy to blame some one. You feel that it lifts you up away from the problem you don't half to answer for the it. No ,his assessment was wrong. God speaks in his word he will never leave or forsake us. He also tells us he never slumbers. A lot of us blame God because we have layed down our sheild of faith. We don't put trust in his Word. When we don't take it and eat of it ,then we have straved or spirit and we suffer because of it. Word is life to us. God has given us a choice. Choose this day ,who you will serve ,for me and my house ,we shall serve the Lord. I have always kept that close to my heart. When I really made the choice and quit blaming God for my short coming. A good Bible Study has you to look at your self. Thank you for such a wonderful gleaming. I leave you with Joshua 1:5 No man shall be able stand before you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you:I will not fail you or forsake you.
