Welcome, boys and girls,
00:00:27.86\00:00:29.59
to Bible Buzz where we have fun
00:00:29.62\00:00:32.63
looking at
stories in the B-I-B-L-E!
00:00:32.66\00:00:37.03
That is right.
That spells Bible.
00:00:37.07\00:00:39.10
That spells Bible.
00:00:39.13\00:00:40.70
Absolutely.
00:00:40.74\00:00:42.07
And I'm joined
together with my psychic Neto.
00:00:42.10\00:00:45.94
Say hi, Neto, everyone.
00:00:45.97\00:00:47.54
Oi, Neto! Oi, Neto!
00:00:47.58\00:00:48.94
Oi, Oi, Oi.
00:00:48.98\00:00:50.61
It's always good to
have Neto by my side.
00:00:50.65\00:00:53.42
And we are excited too
to welcome our referees.
00:00:53.45\00:00:56.42
We have three referees
00:00:56.45\00:00:58.05
'cause you guys are
just so full of energy
00:00:58.09\00:01:00.99
we need all the help we can get.
00:01:01.02\00:01:02.92
So we got three referees,
Emily, Kaylee and Grandma Tina.
00:01:02.96\00:01:06.70
Oh, yeah.
00:01:06.73\00:01:08.06
All right, we are so glad
they're a part of the team.
00:01:08.10\00:01:11.27
And we have two amazing
teams with us here today.
00:01:11.30\00:01:15.44
The first team, team number one,
00:01:15.47\00:01:17.24
please welcome the Blue Jays!
00:01:17.27\00:01:19.74
All right,
00:01:19.77\00:01:21.11
we had the Blue Jays here today.
00:01:21.14\00:01:23.68
And, Hawks, if you can go
a little louder than that.
00:01:23.71\00:01:26.25
And we have today, the
second team, the Hawks.
00:01:26.28\00:01:30.35
All right. Very good.
00:01:30.39\00:01:33.32
And you guys are joined together
00:01:33.36\00:01:35.49
by our viewers at home.
00:01:35.52\00:01:37.06
And we're so glad
you're part of this as well.
00:01:37.09\00:01:39.53
And so today, Neto,
00:01:39.56\00:01:40.90
we're gonna dive
in right into a story,
00:01:40.93\00:01:42.80
and then have a
really fast-paced quiz.
00:01:42.83\00:01:45.03
Are we ready?
00:01:45.07\00:01:46.40
I'm so ready.
00:01:46.43\00:01:47.77
Are you ready? Oh, yeah.
00:01:47.80\00:01:49.14
All right.
00:01:49.17\00:01:50.51
Well, today, we're gonna go back
00:01:50.54\00:01:51.87
to the Old Testament,
00:01:51.91\00:01:53.24
where we see the
nation of Israel.
00:01:53.27\00:01:54.68
And you know
what, boys and girls,
00:01:54.71\00:01:56.04
the nation of
Israel had many enemies,
00:01:56.08\00:01:58.78
many, many enemies.
00:01:58.81\00:02:00.32
They often
fought against enemies.
00:02:00.35\00:02:02.18
And sometimes the
enemies outnumbered Israel
00:02:02.22\00:02:05.82
and they surrounded Israel
and gave them a hard time.
00:02:05.85\00:02:09.32
One of these
nations were the Midianites.
00:02:09.36\00:02:13.09
The Midianites
were these powerful army
00:02:13.13\00:02:17.03
that surrounded Israel,
00:02:17.07\00:02:19.13
and they outnumbered them
00:02:19.17\00:02:21.70
or surrounded
them for seven years.
00:02:21.74\00:02:26.07
They attacked them and
took everything from them,
00:02:26.11\00:02:28.81
gave them a really hard time.
00:02:28.84\00:02:30.38
Can you imagine seven years.
00:02:30.41\00:02:32.88
It's like older than me.
00:02:32.91\00:02:34.88
Imagine that and Israel,
00:02:34.92\00:02:37.32
Israel came to a
point where they said, "God!
00:02:37.35\00:02:40.76
Help us!"
00:02:40.79\00:02:42.22
Let's pretend
we're the Israelites.
00:02:42.26\00:02:43.59
How would we have
pray? Let's pray to God.
00:02:43.63\00:02:45.63
God! Help us!
00:02:45.66\00:02:49.03
Help us! Right?
00:02:49.06\00:02:50.60
Help us, Lord. Yes!
00:02:50.63\00:02:52.53
And so Israel cried out to God.
00:02:52.57\00:02:54.44
And God heard their cry.
00:02:54.47\00:02:56.71
And God said,
00:02:56.74\00:02:58.07
"All right
Israel, I have a plan.
00:02:58.11\00:03:01.01
And I have a man,
his name is Gideon."
00:03:01.04\00:03:05.11
Gideon.
00:03:05.15\00:03:06.48
And so God
chose Gideon and said,
00:03:06.51\00:03:08.45
"Gideon, I'm gonna use you
to fight against the Midianites
00:03:08.48\00:03:12.39
and you're going to,
00:03:12.42\00:03:14.32
you're gonna beat them,
00:03:14.36\00:03:17.26
you're gonna be able to
win a battle against them."
00:03:17.29\00:03:21.80
And so and so they, yes.
00:03:21.83\00:03:24.57
And so Gideon said,
00:03:24.60\00:03:25.93
"All right, no problem, God,
00:03:25.97\00:03:28.27
I have strong mean big men
00:03:28.30\00:03:32.84
who are gonna fight with me.
00:03:32.87\00:03:34.44
They're not afraid."
00:03:34.48\00:03:35.81
Really mean.
00:03:35.84\00:03:37.18
Just like Neto.
00:03:37.21\00:03:38.55
But, Neto, you don't look mean.
00:03:38.58\00:03:39.91
Because I'm not.
00:03:39.95\00:03:41.28
No, you're not.
You're a good guy.
00:03:41.32\00:03:43.02
You're a nice guy.
00:03:43.05\00:03:44.45
But that was a
good sound effect,
00:03:44.49\00:03:46.05
do that again.
00:03:46.09\00:03:47.82
Ooh, that's scary.
00:03:47.86\00:03:49.39
So, Gideon
said, "I have my men."
00:03:49.42\00:03:53.40
And so he said,
00:03:53.43\00:03:54.80
"Right men, let's
get ready for battle."
00:03:54.83\00:03:56.80
And God said, "Um-huh.
00:03:56.83\00:03:59.50
Gideon, come here, come
here, come here, Gideon.
00:03:59.53\00:04:02.24
There's a problem.
00:04:02.27\00:04:03.74
The problem is that
there are too many."
00:04:03.77\00:04:06.04
How many were there?
00:04:06.07\00:04:07.41
Thirty-two thousand men.
00:04:07.44\00:04:08.78
That's not too many.
00:04:08.81\00:04:10.15
Too many for God.
00:04:10.18\00:04:11.51
And God said, "No,
they're too many, Gideon.
00:04:11.55\00:04:13.11
We got to have a lot less."
00:04:13.15\00:04:15.12
And Gideon said, "Okay."
00:04:15.15\00:04:16.48
And then God said,
00:04:16.52\00:04:17.85
"All right, this
what we're gonna do.
00:04:17.89\00:04:19.22
Gideon, I'm gonna give
you a sermon to preach.
00:04:19.25\00:04:21.49
And in your sermon,
you're gonna preach,
00:04:21.52\00:04:23.06
you're going to
say, all right, men,
00:04:23.09\00:04:25.16
whoever is afraid
you can go just go home.
00:04:25.19\00:04:29.06
Just go back home."
00:04:29.10\00:04:30.43
Well, okay.
00:04:30.47\00:04:32.07
Neto, where are you going?
00:04:32.10\00:04:33.44
I'm afraid.
00:04:33.47\00:04:34.80
Come on, Neto.
You're not afraid.
00:04:34.84\00:04:36.40
We're in the company
of some great teams here.
00:04:36.44\00:04:38.67
We can't be afraid.
00:04:38.71\00:04:40.04
Right now, Neto, no.
00:04:40.08\00:04:41.54
So God said, "If
you're afraid go home."
00:04:41.58\00:04:43.78
So Gideon said, "Okay."
00:04:43.81\00:04:45.48
So he preached the
sermon and guess what?
00:04:45.51\00:04:47.92
You're not gonna believe this.
00:04:47.95\00:04:49.38
How many went home?
00:04:49.42\00:04:51.19
Twenty-two thousand.
00:04:51.22\00:04:55.29
Oh, my goodness.
00:04:55.32\00:04:56.99
I don't wanna get
confused. Hold on.
00:04:57.03\00:04:59.19
Are you doing the math, Neto.
00:04:59.23\00:05:00.60
Do the math, Neto.
00:05:00.63\00:05:01.96
Twenty-two thousand go home.
00:05:02.00\00:05:03.67
And Gideon said
what... And then how many?
00:05:03.70\00:05:05.03
Twenty-two, you said?
00:05:05.07\00:05:06.40
Twenty-two thousand.
00:05:06.43\00:05:07.77
Hold on, I dropped a zero.
00:05:07.80\00:05:09.14
Don't forget the
three zeros, Neto.
00:05:09.17\00:05:10.54
You got three zeros there.
00:05:10.57\00:05:12.17
Three zeros, 10,000.
00:05:12.21\00:05:13.74
Ten thousand left.
00:05:13.78\00:05:15.11
Ten thousand are left. Okay.
00:05:15.14\00:05:16.68
And then God come
to Gideon and says,
00:05:16.71\00:05:19.58
"Gideon, come here, come here."
00:05:19.61\00:05:21.72
What do you think God said?
00:05:21.75\00:05:24.92
"There's still too
many, too many men."
00:05:24.95\00:05:28.02
And Gideon said,
00:05:28.06\00:05:29.69
"Okay, what do you
want me to do now?"
00:05:29.72\00:05:31.49
And God said, "Take
them down to the water.
00:05:31.53\00:05:34.06
Take them down to the stream,
00:05:34.10\00:05:35.80
and tell them that
they can drink water,
00:05:35.83\00:05:39.83
and I'm going to
test them there."
00:05:39.87\00:05:42.30
And so Gideon
said, "All right, men,
00:05:42.34\00:05:44.14
before we fight,
we got to be hydrated.
00:05:44.17\00:05:46.57
So let's drink plenty of water.
00:05:46.61\00:05:48.21
Let's go down to the
waters and get some."
00:05:48.24\00:05:50.21
So they went down to
the waters all the way down.
00:05:50.25\00:05:53.15
And Gideon said, "Go
ahead and drink men."
00:05:53.18\00:05:55.78
Nine thousand seven
hundred of them said, "Water!"
00:05:55.82\00:05:59.69
And they came to the waters
00:05:59.72\00:06:01.26
and they just put
their face into the water
00:06:01.29\00:06:04.13
and drank as much
water as they could.
00:06:04.16\00:06:06.03
All they could
focus on was the water.
00:06:06.06\00:06:08.60
But 300 of them did
something different.
00:06:08.63\00:06:11.57
They went down to the water,
00:06:11.60\00:06:13.17
and they kept their eyes fixed
on the army of the Midianites.
00:06:13.20\00:06:17.87
And they took that water
00:06:17.91\00:06:19.24
and brought the
water up to their mouth,
00:06:19.27\00:06:21.61
while they focused on their goal
00:06:21.64\00:06:23.71
and on their mission.
00:06:23.75\00:06:25.25
And God looked
at these two groups,
00:06:25.28\00:06:26.75
and he said, "I got my men."
00:06:26.78\00:06:30.35
Do you think He chose the 9,700
00:06:30.39\00:06:33.99
or the 300?
00:06:34.02\00:06:37.06
The 300!
00:06:37.09\00:06:38.43
Hold down, let me
write that down again.
00:06:38.46\00:06:39.79
It's amazing how God works.
00:06:39.83\00:06:41.16
I mean, you would have thought
00:06:41.20\00:06:42.53
that He would
have picked the 9000,
00:06:42.56\00:06:43.90
but no, He picked the 300.
00:06:43.93\00:06:45.53
Hold on. Hold on. I'm
doing not gonna let that.
00:06:45.57\00:06:47.14
Are you doing the math, Neto?
00:06:47.17\00:06:48.50
Okay. Okay.
00:06:48.54\00:06:50.31
We started with how many
men did Joshua start with?
00:06:50.34\00:06:53.61
Thirty-two thousand.
00:06:53.64\00:06:55.68
That is correct. Right.
00:06:55.71\00:06:57.11
32,000. You got that, Neto?
00:06:57.15\00:06:58.75
Do the math. Yeah.
00:06:58.78\00:07:00.15
Then he preached a sermon
whoever is afraid just go home.
00:07:00.18\00:07:03.69
And how many went home?
00:07:03.72\00:07:05.05
Twenty-two thousand.
00:07:05.09\00:07:06.45
Twenty-two thousand.
00:07:06.49\00:07:07.82
So, Neto, you subtract 22,000.
00:07:07.86\00:07:10.73
Minus 22,000.
00:07:10.76\00:07:12.19
How many of you left with, Neto?
00:07:12.23\00:07:13.56
Well, I have 10,000 right now.
00:07:13.60\00:07:14.93
Ten thousand. All right.
00:07:14.96\00:07:16.30
So they went down to the waters,
00:07:16.33\00:07:18.17
and some put their
face right into the water
00:07:18.20\00:07:21.37
took their eyes off their goal,
00:07:21.40\00:07:23.10
put their face in the water.
00:07:23.14\00:07:24.47
How many of men did that?
00:07:24.51\00:07:26.04
Nine thousand seven hundred.
00:07:26.07\00:07:28.44
They got it, Neto.
00:07:28.48\00:07:29.81
So subtract 9,700.
00:07:29.84\00:07:32.58
That's 300.
00:07:32.61\00:07:33.95
But this is just like
1% of the rest of that.
00:07:33.98\00:07:37.29
It's not enough.
00:07:37.32\00:07:38.65
Can you imagine less than 1%
00:07:38.69\00:07:41.72
from the men that
Gideon started with?
00:07:41.76\00:07:44.36
And so God said, "Go
fight the Midianites."
00:07:44.39\00:07:47.73
And then they lost.
00:07:47.76\00:07:49.53
Actually, they won.
00:07:49.56\00:07:51.33
Let me tell you how they won.
00:07:51.37\00:07:52.70
Can you believe it.
00:07:52.73\00:07:54.07
They were given a trumpet,
00:07:54.10\00:07:55.90
a jar of clay, and a fire torch.
00:07:55.94\00:07:59.24
That's all they had
and that's all they needed.
00:07:59.27\00:08:03.01
They came at night.
00:08:03.04\00:08:04.38
And in a single night, guys,
00:08:04.41\00:08:05.75
they defeated this massive army
00:08:05.78\00:08:08.82
and Israel won the battle.
00:08:08.85\00:08:11.42
Can you imagine?
00:08:11.45\00:08:12.79
That is just an amazing thing
00:08:12.82\00:08:14.46
because God
gave them the victory
00:08:14.49\00:08:17.03
'cause there is
nothing impossible with God.
00:08:17.06\00:08:19.73
You can do all things
when God is by your side,
00:08:19.76\00:08:23.26
there is nothing to be afraid of
00:08:23.30\00:08:25.80
when God fights for you.
00:08:25.83\00:08:28.44
So that was our story
today, boys and girls.
00:08:28.47\00:08:30.97
And when we come
back from our break,
00:08:31.01\00:08:32.71
we're gonna take a quiz,
00:08:32.74\00:08:34.14
and see how much you
remember from this story.
00:08:34.18\00:08:36.95
Will see you soon.
