And Gideon said unto God, Let not thine anger be hot against me, and I will speak but this once: let me prove, I pray thee, but this once with the fleece; let it now be dry only upon the fleece, and upon all the ground let there be dew.

Verse 39 is found in chapter 6 of Judges. The Midianites and their allies gather for battle. The Spirit of the Lord comes upon Gideon, and he summons the tribes. Even so, Gideon asks for signs through the fleece to confirm the divine word. The passage shows both the Spirit’s action and Gideon’s insecurity. The signs do not present a general method for discerning God’s will but a particular episode within his calling.
Meditate on this verse and share your reflection or spiritual experience with the community. Your comments will enrich everyone's learning.
