Gideon at Ophrah: The Lord is with Thee, Thou Mighty Man of Valour
Description
There have been several junctures in Israel’s history at which it has felt hopelessly outnumbered. John Huffman invites our attention to one such instance, 1245 BC, during the days of the judges. On this battlefield in the Valley of Jezreel, Midianite marauders outnumbered Gideon’s men 4:1. Then 13:1. And finally 450:1. What’s clear from the text yet hard to comprehend is that God intended it to be so! Learn how God uses unlikely men in unlikely situations to help His people grow in character.
