An Application
Gideon was raised his whole life by his dad to worship an idol. After he delivered the victory, the people were impressed and wanted to crown him king, and he gave that wonderful response in JDG 8:23. But amazingly the story took a turn for the worse in JDG 8:27. I can only begin to think about the lessons this warns us with. Idolatry was culturally rampant in Israel, making it very difficult to break the sinful habit, even for a hero of the faith (HEB 11:32). Our goal is to do better.
