THE COMPROMISE OF SUBTLE SIN SOWS SEEDS OF SPIRITUAL DECAY LEADING TO FUTURE CATASTROPHIC FAILURES

NORTHERN TRIBES INTENSIFY THE DISAPPOINTING PATTERN OF FAILED OBJECTIVES AND COMPROMISE WITH THE ENEMY

DESPITE SPECTACULAR MIRACLES AND DIVINE FAVOR EXTENDED TO THEIR FATHERS, THE SECOND GENERATION SINKS INTO APOSTASY AND DEFEAT

STUBBORN SIN PROVOKES THE LORD TO ANGER AND PERPETUATES THE CYCLE OF DEFEAT: SIN, SERVITUDE, SUPPLICATION, SALVATION, SLIPPAGE

GOD CAN TRANSFORM DIFFERENT TYPES OF PEOPLE INTO COURAGEOUS AND EFFECTIVE LEADERS

The Honeybee (Deborah) and the Mountain Goat (Jael)

GOD USES UNCONVENTIONAL MEANS — INCLUDING THE LEADERSHIP ROLE OF WOMEN (DEBORAH AND JAEL) — TO ENSURE THAT THE GLORY FOR SALVATION BELONGS ULTIMATELY TO HIM ALONE

THE LORD BRINGS VICTORY WHEN LEADERS LEAD AND PEOPLE COMMIT THEMSELVES TO FIGHT THE BATTLE

ONE MAN RULE THAT LORDS IT OVER THE SHEEP USURPS GOD’S PREEMINENT ROLE AND RESULTS IN A REIGN OF FUTILITY THAT CULMINATES IN DESTRUCTION

THE FAITHFULNESS OF GOD INCLUDES THE FULFILLMENT OF HIS CURSES

DON’T UNDERESTIMATE THE LOVE OF GOD IN REMAINING FAITHFUL TO HIS PEOPLE DESPITE THEIR REPEATED APOSTASIES . . .

AND DON’T UNDERESTIMATE THE GRACE OF GOD IN TRANSFORMING HUMAN OUTCASTS INTO CONQUERING HEROES

COMMITMENTS MADE TO THE LORD MUST BE KEPT REGARDLESS OF THE COST

INFLATED EGOS AND A HARSH SPIRIT ERUPT IN TRAGIC CONFLICT FOR THE PEOPLE OF GOD

THE AWESOMENESS OF OUR GOD CALLS FOR A LIFE OF SEPARATION FROM SIN UNTO HIS SERVICE

Awesome = both wonderful in His person and in His works

THE FATAL FLAW OF SELF INDULGENT LUST BECOMES THE STIMULANT GOD USES TO ACCOMPLISH HIS PROVIDENTIAL PLANS FOR HIS PEOPLE

COUNTERFEIT, MAN-MADE SPIRITUALITY REINFORCES ITS OWN CYCLE OF SELF DECEPTION

(AND OFFENDS GOD BY REPLACING OBJECTIVE DIVINE STANDARDS WITH ANARCHY AND MORAL RELATIVISM)

DON’T CONFUSE MATERIAL PROSPERITY WITH THE BLESSING OF THE LORD

WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO SHOCK GOD’S PEOPLE INTO OUTRAGE OVER DEPRAVED WICKEDNESS?

THE PERVASIVENESS OF PERVERSITY REAPS TRAGIC JUDGMENT ON GOD’S PEOPLE

DIFFICULT TRIALS TEST THE LOYALTY OF OUR COMMITMENT TO GOD’S LOVINGKINDNESS
