Jephthah was a valiant soldier, but also the son of a prostitute.
His brothers, his father’s sons, grew up and drove him out of their father’s house, because they felt he had no right to his father’s inheritance, but was the son of another woman.
The Bible tells us that Jephthah went far from them, into the land of Tob with the people of nothing with whom he made excursions.
Some time later, the sons of Ammon made war on Israel.
Threatened by their enemies, Jephthah’s brothers remembered that they had a brother who was a warrior, a fighter, a hero, and they went back for him, not to return to their father’s house,
not to return as a mere son of the land, but he was elevated to the rank of army leader.
He was now the leader, the authority of those who had despised, humiliated and rejected him…
Why do we let this situation poison our existence?
We’ve come to tell ourselves that our God is faithful.
He cannot abandon us,
he cannot forsake us…
He does all good things in their own time.
Do we want to be discouraged?
Our God is faithful.
Do we believe that there is no way out?
Our God clears a path where none exists.
Let’s not torment ourselves, let’s trust in the Lord.
The Lord has promised to strengthen us, to make us stable and permanent…
He has also said that he will preserve us, guard us, protect us.
This is God’s will for us,
He doesn’t want us to be wavering or in doubt and uncertainty, but to stand firm in the face of the enemy’s attacks.
The Lord gives us the strength to stand firm in the face of pressure.
He also stands with us as a guardian to keep the wicked away from us so that they don’t affect us.
The Lord cares for us and takes care of us. Strength and protection come from him.
His ability is as great as his care. In his hands we are safe, and no enemy can approach us.
2 Thessalonians, 3:3 – The Lord is faithful, he will establish you and preserve you from the evil one.
Pray that your steps may be established on the path of eternal life.
Good day to you all
Have a nice day
