Judges 3 & 4
Inspired thots
The Lord had to raise up Judges for Israel. When there was no leader (judge), the Israelites turned away from God and lived wickedly. Then, when they get into trouble, they call upon the Lord for deliverance.
The Israelites had to rely on SOMEONE to keep them on God's path... they were still 'immature'... overly dependent on others for their faith and belief in God.
Did they really have a personal encounter with God? If so, they would remember His goodness to them and not fall away so easily and rampantly. God should not be taken as 'Santa Claus' who gives good things once in a while. He WILL BLESS when we walk with Him rightly.
A daily time out with the Lord Jesus, to hear Him speak to ME. I am asking the Lord to share HIS thoughts with ME, to teach me more about Himself, and how I can be drawn closer to Him... for 'His thoughts are not my thoughts and neither are His ways my ways' Isaiah 55:8,9. This blog is not a theological exegesis. This blog is to record down the INSIGHTS & INSPIRATIONS of God's Word to me; speaking LIFE into my life for Abundant life! :)
