Day 140 - Judges 8 & Psalm 140

 Julie

Oh how quickly people forget and turn away from God. In the 40 years that Gideon was the judge, they slowly seemed to be returning to their old ways so that when he died they were back where they started. Why are corruption and evil so much more attractive?

This could be a good psalm to pray during the time we are in. It sometimes feels like we are under attack from evil people and we could praying something like this as protection from that evil. It would also show our trust in God's path and direction for us.

Valid question.  If only we had the answer.  But I think we are not meant to know for what reason I don't know.  All this back and forth over and over is terrible.  Is this the cycle of humans for all time?

This is a psalm for the ages.  As there are and have been evil doers and those that follow God have been persecuted over the ages.  It does sound like a protection prayer.
