Doing great and mighty things...
Judges 6:12
And the Angel of the Lord appeared to him and said to him, “The Lord is with you, mighty one of the armies!”
Encouraging Words...
Even though Gideon had snuck out to gather wheat in fear of the enemy and argued with the Angel that he was small and incapable of doing anything great for the Lord he is still told that because the Lord is with him he will do great things. And the great things that he did in his humility led to the church fathers recognizing him as a prefigure of Christ. What about us? Jesus told us that He would be with us even to the end of ages. Will He not use us to do mighty things for Him and His kingdom if we will just humble ourselves before Him and be obedient to Him? Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner!
