Gideon's Identity Crisis

While Gideon was hiding from the enemy with fear in his heart, God called him a mighty man and a deliverer of his nation. God views us through the call and destiny on our life, not by our circumstances. It is our tendency to look at our circumstances and feel unworthy and disqualified. We, as Gideon did, need to with the reality of what God says about us, and know that it is all about God, not all about us. Our faith is in God, not in our own strength, and our identity needs to flow from heaven to earth, not earth to heaven.
