Welcome Crosswalk PLUS subscribers! These raw, uncut video takes on Scripture are brought to you ad-free from the hearts of your favorite Crosswalk contributors. We'll examine a Bible verse, application and prayer in five minutes or less as an encouraging way to start any day.
Today's verse is Judges 6:13-14 with Jennifer Slattery.
“Pardon me, my lord,” Gideon replied, “but if the LORD is with us, why has all this happened to us? Where are all his wonders that our ancestors told us about when they said, ‘Did not the LORD bring us up out of Egypt?’ But now the LORD has abandoned us and given us into the hand of Midian.” The LORD turned to him and said, “Go in the strength you have and save Israel out of Midian’s hand. Am I not sending you?”
"We can trust God to grant us the strength we need and to fight our battles for us as he did for Gideon. He'll help us overthrow the strongholds and fears that oppress us as well, and to go in the strength that we possess, knowing he fills in our gaps."
