Trust In God And What He Will Do

Judges 4:4-9
4 Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lappidoth, was leading Israel at that time. 5 She held court under the Palm of Deborah between Ramah and Bethel in the hill country of Ephraim, and the Israelites came to her to have their disputes decided. 6 She sent for Barak son of Abinoam from Kedesh in Naphtali and said to him, "The LORD, the God of Israel, commands you: 'Go, take with you ten thousand men of Naphtali and Zebulun and lead the way to Mount Tabor. 7 I will lure Sisera, the commander of Jabin's army, with his chariots and his troops to the Kishon River and give him into your hands.' "

8 Barak said to her, "If you go with me, I will go; but if you don't go with me, I won't go."

9 "Very well," Deborah said, "I will go with you. But because of the way you are going about this, the honor will not be yours, for the LORD will hand Sisera over to a woman." So Deborah went with Barak to Kedesh


Here in this time, a woman is leading the people of Israel. Even when things are going bad, people are still needing God to intervene for them. Here, the commander did not 100% trust God in His words, so he asks Deborah to go with him.

God wants us to trust Him in all that He does. It doesn't matter if the person who God speaks through is a woman, a man, a child, but to trust God in everything.

Father, You are the Lord of my life. You are the awesome God, the creator of all things. I need to trust you, to trust in Your plans for me, to allow you to move in my life. I pray for your Holy Spirit to continue to guide me in what I do. I pray for your leading hand. I thank you. I pray this in Jesus name.
Amen.
