1. God's Judgment – Paul M. Williams

Judges 6:1-12 When a generation loses touch with God and the favour of the Lord is taken away, the next generation coming after will have to start all over again!  I don't know if you've ever had the experience of demolishing a wall.  I'm no builder, but I know for sure that it took whoever built the wall a whole lot longer to build it than it did for the person smashing it down.  My dear people, look around and see; you don't need me to tell you that we are living in days of great spiritual declension.  This land of ours that once enjoyed regular seasons of refreshing and harvest blessing has for some time now been crippled in the grip of a dearth.  As we begin this series, looking at the life of Gideon, we begin with the sin of God's people and His remedial judgements. What was true in the days of Israel, is true in our day.  This is a call for the Church to seek the face of God in humility, prayer, and repentance if perhaps the Lord might turn His face again towards His people.
