About Gideon: Your weakness. God’s strength.
When we hear the name Gideon, many of us think about his 300 soldiers or the fleece he laid out under the evening sky. But Gideon’s story is so much bigger than that – bigger than any one man and his mark on Israel’s history.

Like everything else in the Bible, this is a story about God and His people, His love for them, as well as His strength operating in spite of their weaknesses- even through their weaknesses. And because God’s people includes you and me, Gideon’s story is also about our lives, our doubts, our struggles, and our possibilities as believers. From a state of fear, weakness, and insecurity, Gideon emerged as Israel’s hero, filled with God’s presence and His passion for deliverance.

In what ways do you feel insufficient? Those places create the greatest opportunity to experience the sufficiency of God. Instead of ignoring, neglecting, or trying to escape your weaknesses, see them as the gifts that they are, given specifically and strategically by God to unlock the door of God’s strength.
