086 Judges 1 – 3; Mark 6.30 – 6.56
A mess, a complete mess is what we will be reading in the account given to us in the book of Judges. Things were so good under the great leadership of Joshua. Things go so sour under so many different leaders or would be leaders. The key you will find is right in chapter two where an angel of the Lord has been sent to give Israel a message. The angel says, "Tear down their altars! But you haven't obeyed me! What's this you are doing?" This is a great question. It is a great question to ask yourself anytime of the day or night. What's this you are doing? God had sent the angel to the Israelites to point out their disobedience to them. The pattern found in the book of Judges is that of disobedience, God's discipline, repentance of the people, restoration, and then them being used of God. This pattern should be avoided at all costs.
How many in your dinner party? We have approximately 5000 and could we have our seating arrangements together? No problem sir, right this way. The disciples wanted to send the people home but Jesus had other plans. The people were fed. After supper Jesus dismissed the disciples and the dinner party so he could go off to a mountain and pray. Later in the evening the disciples were in trouble on the lake. Jesus comes to them walking on the water. The first words Christ speaks is that of identifying Himself and to have courage. Are you in trouble right now Christ is speaking of who He is and that He wants you to have courage.
You have a great day in Jesus.
