God called Gideon, an ordinary man hiding in fear, to deliver Israel from Midianite oppression. Despite Gideon’s doubts and feelings of inadequacy, God saw his potential and promised divine strength for victory. This sermon reveals how God uses ordinary people who trust Him, calling us in our daily routines to serve above self with His power, not our own.
