So Israel was reduced to starvation by the Midianites. Then the Israelites cried out to the Lord for help.

“Go with the strength you have, and rescue Israel from the Midianites. I am sending you!” 15“But Lord,” Gideon replied, “how can I rescue Israel? My clan is the weakest in the whole tribe of Manasseh, and I am the least in my entire family!” 16The Lord said to him, “I will be with you. And you will destroy the Midianites as if you were fighting against one man.”

Then Gideon said to God, “Please don’t be angry with me, but let me make one more request. Let me use the fleece for one more test.

“Get up! Go down into the Midianite camp, for I have given you victory over them!

Lord God my Father,

Cause a stillness to rest on me so I may hear only your desire in my thoughts. Direct me i your way and give me victory in the battles you place me in. Cause me to seek to verify it is your will I am following above my own and delight me in the outcome of your design. Your victory in all that I need, may your will be done cheerfully in my heart.

In Jesus name I pray,

Amen
