Judges 6:8
A prophet - We have reason to hope, God is designing mercy for us, if we find he is by his grace preparing us for it.
6 So Israel was greatly impoverished because of the Midianites, and the children of Israel acried out to the Lord.
7 And it came to pass, when the children of Israel cried out to the Lord because of the Midianites,
8 that the Lord sent a prophet to the children of Israel, who said to them, “Thus says the Lord God of Israel: ‘I brought you up from Egypt and brought you out of the ahouse of bondage;
9 and I delivered you out of the hand of the Egyptians and out of the hand of all who oppressed you, and adrove them out before you and gave you their land.
10 Also I said to you, “I am the Lord your God; ado not fear the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell.” But you have not obeyed My bvoice.’ ”
Gideon
11 Now the Angel of the Lord came and sat under the terebinth tree which was in Ophrah, which belonged to Joash athe Abiezrite, while his son bGideon threshed wheat in the winepress, in order to hide it from the Midianites.
12 And the aAngel of the Lord appeared to him, and said to him, “The Lord is bwith you, you mighty man of valor!”
