GO Gideon and YOU – 222

Welcome to Hank’s Place –

Where you have come home. Here at Hank’s Place the emphasis is upon Jesus Christ, and His finished work at Calvary!

Jesus has been given ALL authority – Mat 28:19. He tells His disciples to GO making disciples of all the nations. If the one who has ALL authority says to us “GO,” rest assured we are able to go.

We can gain more insight into this from Gideon, found in Judges 6.
The Israelites are oppressed by the Midianites, when an angel of the Lord appears to Gideon and says in vs 6, “The Lord is with you, O valiant warrior.” At that moment Gideon was enabled; he became a valiant warrior when he believed the word of God. In verse 14 the angel adds, “Go – in this your strength and deliver Israel from the hand of Midian. Have I not sent you?” God gave Gideon the “GO” word and God’s word was Gideon’s strength, just as for us today. If God tells you to GO, dear friend, along with that comes the enabling ability TO GO. Believe it and it is yours!

God’s GO can place us on the cutting edge of the supernatural. The God stuff. The unexpected – the extraordinary – like Gideon who won an awesome victory!

“Go” in Judges here means “capacity, means, or ability.” The Lord was telling Gideon to go, having tremendous ability, because “I AM” was going with him – to see that it got done!

We Christians, by the grace of God have the I AM living in us – Christ in us, Col 1:27. We are not here to duplicate, imitate, or copy anyone else in this world. Believing, we follow His leading, His unique “GO” to us, and are assured of having all the power and resources of heaven behind us. His GO is always accompanied by the glorious presence of the Lord with us. And when God goes into operation phenomenal things happen!

As it says in Mark 16:20, “And they went out and preached everywhere, while the Lord worked with them, and confirmed the word by the signs that followed.”

So my dear friend, GO as the Lord has directed you – and help others, COME ALIVE! Rest from your labors, from trying to get it right: receive His grace – you’ll COME ALIVE!
