“Mighty hero, the Lord is with you!”
“If the Lord is with us, why has all this happened to us? And where are all the miracles our ancestors told us about?”
“Go with the strength you have, and rescue Israel. I am sending you!”
“Me? My clan is weakest and I am the least in my entire family.”
The Lord said to him, “I will be with you.”
“If you are truly going to help me, show me a sign to prove that is is really the Lord speaking to me (from Judges 6:12-17).”
The Lord gave him a sign, answering his doubt-filled questions.
