Introduction
Gideon finishes destroying the Midianite army, and the Israelites want Gideon to be their ruler. The reading then takes a puzzling twist, with Gideon making an idol out of the gold earrings taken from the Midianites and causing the Israelites to abandon God and worship the idol. Gideon lives a long life and has many sons. Following his death, the people once again are unfaithful to God.
Today’s Scripture: Judges 8:23b
[Gideon said:] “The LORD will be your ruler.”
Today’s Reading
Judges 8:1-35
Reflect
Why were the people of Ephraim upset with Gideon? What did he say to dispel their anger? What do you think his words indicated with regard to his leadership style? Why did the leaders of Sukkoth and Penuel refuse to help Gideon’s army? What did Gideon say he would do? What are your thoughts about Gideon’s idolatry (verse 27)? Do you think he became ambitious? Do you think he forgot that the victory he achieved was really God’s?
Pray
Lord God, you alone are my God and you reign in my heart. Keep me humble and mindful that I can do nothing on my own and that I trust in and depend on you. I worship you alone and praise your holy name. Amen.
Prayer Concern
Those who are tempted to put their trust in idols
Tomorrow’s Reading
Judges 9:1-21: Abimelech becomes Israel’s next leader and takes the title of king.
