Events of the Bible: The Juges of Israel- Weekly Devotion

What We Read This Week:

The book of Judges is all about God's faithfulness and Israel's unfaithfulness. In Joshua, God told the sons of Israel to drive out the people living in the Promised Land. When they were unfaithful, God gave their enemies into their hands. They were often tempted and worshiped false gods. They were then oppressed and eventually cried out to God. God would send a judge to free them however, this pattern was repeated multiple times.

 

Relating it to Your Life:

This is an event I included just because it describes this book of the bible and sets the scene for the events to come, but basically we can take a few things away from this summary. We can learn from the sons of Israel that we need to learn from our mistakes in the past. We can also take note that God is always faithful. Call upon God for anything and he will rescue you. Worth a shot right? If you feel scared and know that you've done wrong, ask for forgiveness and help! In his timing, help will come!
