A Scared Man

Name Date

Read the Story

The people of Midian were cruel to Israel. They took Israel's food and animals for seven years. Israel cried to God.

Gideon was hiding wheat in a wine press. God's angel came to him. He said God was with Gideon, and called him a mighty man. Gideon felt weak. But God told him to go and save Israel. God was sending him.

Gideon gave the angel food. Fire came out of the rock and burned it up. Gideon built an altar. He called it Yahweh is Peace. Then he put wool on the floor. He asked God for a sign. God made the wool wet and the ground dry. Then God made the wool dry and the ground wet.
