Judges 7 Gideon prepared
to go to war with the Midianites. The army was told 22,000 men went home; 10,000 stayed. The Lord
said there were still too many. All those who lapped the water,
like a dog, he put on one side. The rest knelt down and used
their hands to drink. Gideon divided his 300 men into 3
groups, To each man he gave a horn and an
empty water container, In the middle of the night, they
attacked. The Midianites woke in terror, In their panic, the Midianites
attacked each other The Israelites drove the Midianites from the Israelite homeland. |
Dear God, thank you for the courage and leadership of Gideon |
Psalm 71 In you, O Lord, I
take refuge. Be a rock where I
can take refuge. It is you, O
Lord, who are my hope. From my mother's
womb you have been my help. Now that I am
old, please do not forget me. Now that I am old
and grey-headed, To you I will
sing with the harp. |
Lord, may all elderly people put their trust and hope in you |
Ephesians 1 I never fail to remember you in my
prayers May the God of our Lord Jesus Christ,
the Father of glory, May he enlighten your mind to hope for
the glorious life |
Father, Son and Holy
Spirit, may I see you more clearly, |
