—Judges 6:11-16
by: Katie Brown.
Have you ever asked God, “Why is this happening to me?” If you have, then you would have good company in Gideon (as well as virtually every other believer in history), who was also discouraged and fearful for his future. God had saved Gideon’s people many times before, but each new challenge brought fear and doubt. As humans, we can often get caught in our own cycles of discouragement when we fail to remember that the God of the universe and the Lord of Lords is with us. We can have confidence in knowing that there is nothing on this earth that can defeat our God.
