    Men of the Bible

    A One – Year Devotional Study of Men in Scripture


    By : Ann Splanger and Robert Wolgemuth

    Gideon
    His Name Means “ Hewer, Slasher, Hacker”

    His Work: A farmer called to bring Israel back to the LORD ( a task in which he
    partially succeeded) and to deliver GOD’S people from their Midianite oppressors.

    His Character: A fearful man, living in a time when Israel had plenty to fear,
    Gideon questioned the LORD, demanding signs that would reassure him of GOD’S
    faithfulness. Even though he was a reluctant warrior, he won a brilliant military
    victory and became one of Israel’s greatest judges.

    His Triumph: That GOD’S vision for his life turned out to be far greater than his
    own.

    Key Scriptures: Judges 6-8
