No Consideration For Their Neighbour!


‘No Consideration For Their Neighbour.’
Proverbs 21:10.
a) The mind (faculty of thinking).
b) Of a wicked person.
c) Has no consideration for their neighbour.
(This QT teaches me that inconsiderate and selfish people have No Consideration For Their Neighbour)

‘Cry Out To The Lord For Help.’
Judges 6:1-6.
a) Judges 6:1. God’s People did what the Lord considered evil.
b) Judges 6:1. The Lord handed them over to Midian for seven years. When God’s People do evil surely something not good will happen to them.
c) Judges 6:2. Midian’s power was too strong for Israel.
d) Judges 6:2. To protect themselves from the Midianites God’s People made themselves hiding places in the:-
1- Mountains.
2- Caves.
3- Strongholds.
e) Judges 6:3. Whenever God’s People planted crops they were damaged by the:-
1- Midianites.
2- Amalekites.
3- Kedemites.
f) Judges 6:4. The enemy camped on the land and destroyed the crops all the way to Gaza. They left nothing for God’s People to live on—not one:-
1- Sheep.
2- Cow.
3- Donkey.
g) Judges 6:5. Like swarms of locusts, the enemies came with their livestock and their tents. They and their camels could not be counted. They came into the land only to ruin it.
h) Judges 6:6. God’s People became very poor because of Midian and they cried out to the Lord for help. God’s People must have been very far away from Him spiritually because it took them a long time to cry out to Him for help.
(Through this Second one I can see that it is very important for True Believers to Cry Out To The Lord For Help when they need to)

Donkeys were very common in Bible days and they were animals that were usually looked down upon by human beings. In humility Christ rode into Jerusalem on a donkey. They can be free, untamed and wild. They can be sensitive to the Messengers (Angels) of the Lord. Let us not despise God’s humble yet wonderful Creation.
