GOD-TRACKING IS BRAVELY GOING WHERE GOD IS LEADING
Gideon lived at a time in history when God’s people, Israel had rebelled against God and were worshipping false idols. Sadly, as God had warned them through Moses, if Israel rejected God’s Word and turned to foreign gods, God would abandon them to their enemies. This was the case in Gideon’s day. The Midianites were suppressing Israel, raiding their crops and stealing their livestock. Therefore, Gideon was hiding in a wine-press while he was threshing his wheat, when the angel of God appeared to him.
“The LORD is with you, O mighty man of valour,” said the angel. “Who? Me?” replied Gideon. Gideon was not a significant figure. He was the least in his family, which was of the smallest tribe of Israel. Other Israelites may have tried to stand up against the Midianites, but not Gideon. He was hiding in a winepress. A failure. Useless, in his own eyes. But now, God was calling him to turn the hearts of his people back to worshipping him, and then to go on to defeat the Midianites. Thankfully, young Gideon obeyed God and, with only 300 out 22,000 fighting men, he conquered their enemy.
Are you facing a mammoth task today? Perhaps, like Gideon, you feel you’re an insignificant failure.
Maybe you feel you don’t have what it takes to conquer your fears or succeed in your calling. Gideon felt the same. Let me say to you, you are fearfully and wonderfully made by God; and God makes no mistakes. He has a plan and he has a purpose for you. Trust his design for your life and trust his grace to empower you to fulfil his design (remember, grace is God’s doing). Nothing can separate you from the hand of God and if God is with you, none can stand against you. Be encouraged, the LORD is with you, O mighty GodTracker of valour!
God-tracking is bravely going where God is leading
READ ALL ABOUT IT

DON’T GIVE UP, LOOK UP & PRAY
I commit my work to you and trust you to fulfil my ambitions
“O Lord God, when I read the story of Gideon I feel so encouraged. If you could raise up a little man like Gideon and turn him into a victorious warrior, then I know you can use me to do what you have called me to do. It’s not by my power or might, but by your Spirit I will achieve this task. I commit my work to you and trust you to fulfil my ambitions. Sometimes I feel like I’m a failure and unqualified to do this job, but then I remember, your grace is my qualification; and grace is you doing the job through me. Help me to succeed in this task you have given me, to your glory. Amen.”
