April 1, Day 91

Today's Reading

Judges. Gideon struggled with God's plan for him. He looked at his own abilities and doubted. Have you done that?  Before judging Gideon for his lack of faith in requesting twice for the fleece to show him God's will, remember the spiritual darkness of his generation.  I have observed that it becomes more challenging to walk by the light when I am surrounded by darkness.

This is a vivid description of the defeat of the Midianites by Gideon and his 300 men. I would love to hear the review of this battle by some of our experienced military people. Suffice it for me to tell you that Midian's army was probably the most powerful fighting force of their day. God reduced the size of Gideon's army so that God Himself brought the victory.
