“Healing The Joints 4”

Judges  6:14-15 ,22-24Then the Lord turned to him and said, "Go in this might of yours, and you
shall save Israel from the hand of the Midianites. Have I not sent you?"  15 So he said to Him, "O
my Lord, how can I save Israel? Indeed my clan is the weakest in Manasseh, and I am the least in
my father's house."  22  Now Gideon perceived that He was the Angel of the Lord. So Gideon said,
"Alas, O Lord God! For I have seen the Angel of the Lord face to face."  23 Then the Lord said to
him, "Peace be with you; do not fear, you shall not die." 24 So Gideon built an altar there to the
Lord, and called it The-Lord-Is-Peace. To this day it is still in Ophrah of the Abiezrites.  NKJV  

Last week I talked about Moses who was born a deliverer and came to the place where God
revealed to him his true destiny.  Even though he was born for such a time as this, He told God
how he couldn’t speak.  Imagine telling God you can’t do what He created you to do!  Remember
no matter what you may or may not think about yourself, the Lord has a destiny for you that will
exceed what you have the capacity to think!    This week I want to look at another deliverer.   
Gideon was threshing wheat  at night trying to hide it from the Midianites because they were taking
all the food and Israel was latterly starving to death.  The Lord appears to him and calls him a
mighty man of valor.  Then He tells him to go in this might of his and go save Israel!   God sees us
the way He created us to be!   But look how Gideon sees himself.   I’m from the weakest clan and
the least in my father’s house!    Every person that God has used as a deliverer never see’s
themselves as God see’s them.   What does God say about you?  Do you see yourself as God see’
s you?  You fit in a place in His body joined with those divine connections.   When you properly
fitted in the place that God has put you it will bring true peace.   Gideon was in turmoil and distress,
but when the Angel of the Lord spoke peace to him, he came into the true rest in God.  It’s time for
you to accept His call and come into true peace.  You were born a deliverer for such a time as this!
