Healing for the Hurt

DAY 2 OF 5

 Our Help in Times of Fear

When God called Gideon a “mighty warrior,” Gideon may have wondered if God knew who He was talking to. Gideon’s family was the weakest in the region, and Gideon was the youngest in his family. Gideon lived in constant fear. In fact, he was hiding in a winepress when God delivered this message.

But God knew Gideon, and soon Gideon began to believe what God had said about him. Gideon learned to trust in God and found victory over his fear. He became the mighty warrior that God had always known he would be and led Israel to win the battle with the Midianites against impossible odds and with their faith in God as their only real protection.

Have you ever doubted God’s presence in your life? Have you ever experienced fear as you faced an impossible challenge? Do not be afraid! The same God who conquered the Midianites with torches, jars, and trumpets will give you a battle plan. Believe who He says that you are and what He can do through you! He will help you to conquer fear and doubt. The Lord is with you, mighty warrior! You can put your trust in Him.
