Gideon's 300 Men
Judges 6-7
After Joshua died, the people of Israel forgot about God and sinned against Him. So God sent some enemies to hurt the Israelites and take their land away.
The Israelites became afraid and prayed to God. "Please help us!" they cried.
God chose a man named Gideon to bring together an army to get rid of Israel's enemies. Gideon gathered thousands of men for his army, but God said that was too many. "Take the men to some water and watch how they drink. Only those who use their hands to bring water to their lips are to help with the battle."
After that, Gideon had only 300 men left. How could 300 men possibly beat the huge enemy army? But God was with the Israelites! When Gideon and his men snuck up on the enemy camp with their torches and trumpets, the enemy soldiers became so frightened they ran away! Once again, God protected the people of Israel and kept them safe.
Can you go through the maze and help Gideon find exactly 300 men? |
