Meditate
On
And
the Lord said to him, “Surely I will be with you, and you shall defeat the
Midianites as one man.”
Judges
6:16
You Mighty Man Or Woman Of Valor!
Gideon
lived with a lot of fear. In fact, he so feared his enemies that he threshed
wheat in a winepress at night to hide himself and the wheat from them! Before
he fought and prevailed against the Midianites, he first fought to insist that
he was the weakest and least able of all the men in Israel (Judges 6:15)!
That’s
how Gideon honestly saw himself. But how did the Lord see him? Just the
opposite! He saw Gideon as a “mighty man of valor,” and even picked him to save
Israel from the hands of the Medianites, which he did.
My
friend, do you see yourself as a coward, a loser? Have people said that of you?
Today, I want to challenge you to see yourself the way the Lord sees you—a
mighty man or woman of valor! Take time to meditate on Gideon’s story. See the
Lord with you as He was with Gideon. Then, trusting in the Lord, apply for that
dream job. Go for that audition or course you’ve always wanted to take. Conquer
every fear for He is with you!
