The way out of despair and into lasting hope is to confess and repent of our idolatry and trust in the God who has come near and given us a sure sign in Jesus.

God delivers His people by remembering the victimized and inviting them to be a

part of His stunning salvation and victory over the enemy.

God delights to deliver his people from their troubles such that they are even able to laugh after their sorrow and to smile after their grief.

God is able to sovereignly use suffering, unfaithfulness, and conflict for His good purposes.

We are a people in desparate need of a deliverer who is not bound by death.

God uses half-hearted obedience and half-hearted repentance to demonstrate the

fullness and sufficiency of His Grace.

Judges is a story of the mess in which God works.

We have reason to be grateful to God because he delivers the wanderer, the imprisoned, the fool, and the proud.
