Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem
Character Studies From The Bible
Gideon
New International Version (NIV)
22 The Israelites said to Gideon, Rule over usyou, your son and your grandsonbecause you have saved us from the hand of Midian.
23 But Gideon told them, I will not rule over you, nor will my son rule over you. The Lord will rule over you. 24 And he said, I do have one request, that each of you give me an earring from your share of the plunder. (It was the custom of the Ishmaelites to wear gold earrings.)
25 They answered, Well be glad to give them. So they spread out a garment, and each of them threw a ring from his plunder onto it. 26 The weight of the gold rings he asked for came to seventeen hundred shekels,[b] not counting the ornaments, the pendants and the purple garments worn by the kings of Midian or the chains that were on their camels necks. 27 Gideon made the gold into an ephod, which he placed in Ophrah, his town. All Israel prostituted themselves by worshiping it there, and it became a snare to Gideon and his family.

Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem
Although Gideon did not make a typical pagan idol out of the booty, he did make something that had been reserved by God Himself for use ONLY by the Levitical High Priest. He may have even thought he was doing something appropriate and pious, as he used the spoils of war to create something that "looked" holy. However, the people (and eventually Gideon and his family) started to treat the ephod as a god, rather than as a symbol of The One True God. The same Gideon who had smashed the idols had produced one himself. It is a slippery slope to idolatry!
Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.

PRAYERS ASCENDING ON HIGH FOR THE PEACE OF JERUSALEM! And for the Preservation of the Valiant Israeli Nation!
"Gideon The Iconoclast"

_ |
HEN the men of Israel said unto Gideon, Rule thou over us, both thou, and thy son, and thy son's son also: for thou hast delivered us from the hand of Midian. |
And Gideon said unto them, I will not rule over you, neither shall my son rule over you: the LORD shall rule over you.
And Gideon said unto them, I would desire a request of you, that ye would give me every man the earrings of his prey. (For they had golden earrings, because they were Ishmaelites.)
And they answered, We will willingly give them. And they spread a garment, and did cast therein every man the earrings of his prey.
And the weight of the golden earrings that he requested was a thousand and seven hundred shekels of gold; beside ornaments, and collars, and purple raiment that was on the kings of Midian, and beside the chains that were about their camels' necks.
And Gideon made an ephod thereof, and put it in his city, even in Ophrah: and all Israel went thither a whoring after it: which thing became a snare unto Gideon, and to his house.

Hi,
I was taught all my life that the Jews are God’s Chosen People, in the land promised to them by God as Abraham’s Children. I may not always respond, but I am with you in prayer for peace in all the Holy Land! God bless you!
