BRAGADAYJAH 720
The Lord Raised up Gideon to Fight for Israel.
And there came an Angel of the Lord and sat under an oak which was in
Ophrah that pertained unto Joash the Abiezrite and his son Gideon threshed
wheat by the winepress to hide it from the Medianites. And the angel of the
Lord appeared unto him and said unto him, “the Lord is with thee thou mighty
man of valor” And Gideon said unto him, “Oh my Lord, if the Lord be with us,
why then is all this fallen upon us, and where be all his miracles which our
fathers told us of saying did not the Lord bring us up out of Egypt? But now the Lord has forsaken us and
delivered us into the hand of the Medianites.” And the Lord looked upon him and
said, “go in your might and you shall save Israel from the hand of the
Medianites.” And he asked him, “How shall
I save Israel? For my family is poor in Manasseh and I am the least in my
father’s house.” And the Lord said unto him, “I will be with thee and thou
shall smite the Medianites as one man.”
