Many have passed away mysteriously. You should find out why those Patriarchs erected altars everywhere they go. Your Altar invites God, to fellowship and gain control over the evil in your new environment. Beware, for Altars are everywhere these days and not mainly at some special shrines. The evil altar erected by Gideon's father was the reason why God's move isn't experienced in his life, family and town. If you are experiencing some though times, do a spiritual check if you have erected an altar where you are. No power can stand against the altar of God you create.
