Gideon demands an Angel complete a series of elaborate challenges before he’ll accept it as God’s messenger and he gets off with some light sarcasm from the Angel—but God /needed/ Gideon. Are these people absolutely sure God needs them that bad?

Every clergyman I’ve ever met loves a joke about this that ends with a drowned guy standing in heaven and God saying “what do you mean I didn’t help! I sent three different boats!”

Sure, but in Malachi 3:10, God, speaking through the prophet, says explicitly: “Test me” (sometimes rendered “try me,” sometimes “put me to the test,” so He’s of two minds about it, at least

There's a joke about a man whose town was flooding and he repeatedly insisted on waiting for God to save him by turning away the car, boat, and helicopter as the floodwaters rose. When he ultimately confronts God about it, God says "I sent you a car, a boat, and a helicopter."
