QUESTIONS / ISSUES DISCUSSED:

Yesterday, Mark discussed the attack against King Sisera and his ultimate death at the hand of Jael found in Judges 4.

NARRATIVE EXPLANATION #2: Judges 5

When Deborah and Barak attacked King Sisera in the valley, what happened to the river?

How is Jael described in this version of the attack?

How is King Sisera’s death described? Is this more brutal than the Judges 4 version?

POINTS FOR HOME:

God uses unexpected deliverers. Mark discusses the significance of continuing Martin Luther King, Jr’s dream of unity.

God uses the everyday stuff. (Judges 4:21) Mark reminds us that not all miracles are big, catching everyone’s attention. Miracles happen every day to ordinary people like you and me.

Have courage! (Judges 4:8-9) Mark encourages us to give God the glory because, after all, we can only accomplish His will with His help!

ISRAEL UNDER OPPRESSION

Click the link above and fast-forward to the 54-minute mark to view more of the map that Mark mentions in today’s segment. Yesterday, Mark explained why God, through the prophetess Deborah, commanded Barak (not Obama) to leave the mountains and invade the valley, the land ruled by King Sisera.

What was the outcome of their “outing” (i.e. attack) on the people in the valley?

What is the significance of the valley, the river, and farmland in this attack?

Did King Sisera, with all his might and vast army, win or lose? NOTE: This is where Jael enters the story!

NARRATIVE EXPLANATION #1: Judges 4

Did King Sisera think Jael would help him?

What did Jael do when King Sisera entered her tent? Remember Mark mentioning the power of MILK in the first segment on Monday of this week? This is where the significance is explained!

When Barak went to Jael’s tent, was King Sisera alive or dead?

Tune in tomorrow as Mark tells the other version of this battle, found in Judges 5.

How are we to respond to those who do not believe? How do we respond to those who purposefully deceive others about the Truth in Christ? (2 John 1:10-13)

If you have questions about a sermon, please contact Champion Forest at questions@cfbc.org

QUESTIONS / ISSUES DISCUSSED:

Why do we try our own plan first instead of God’s plans? (Isaiah 55:9; Proverbs 19:21) Mark reminds us that we can have the best plans in the world, but if they’re not aligned with God’s plans, they will never work out.

Who are Shiphrah and Puah? Why do we literally owe our lives to these two women? Who were their ancestors? Where did they live? Mark gives a little history to explain. Tomorrow he will begin reading from the focused Scripture passage and go into more detail.

Side Note: Why do we celebrate the birth of Jesus on December 25?

If you have questions about a sermon, please contact Champion Forest at questions@cfbc.org

QUESTIONS / ISSUES DISCUSSED:

Yesterday, Pastor David began giving his points for home (lessons we learn from Queen Vashti) discussing the importance of having the courage to stand up for our core convictions. How can the Holy Spirit give us the strength and courage to do this? Can Scripture help, as well? Is prayer a good tool?

LESSONS FROM QUEEN VASHTI: Be confident in God’s plan.

Remember: The book of Esther is not about Esther. It’s about God’s sovereignty in our lives. It’s about His perfect plan for our lives. Trust that He really does have it all under control.

Yesterday, Mark began teaching on the significance of names. Today, he continues this explanation, beginning with sharing about the death of his father and what his fathers’ name means to him.

How can names help us identify one another and build our character? Can names show our existence to others and help us build community? Do our names have a spiritual significance – a place in God’s covenant? (Genesis 11:4; Deuteronomy 7:24-26; Daniel 12:1)

Why were the daughters of Zelophehad so upset over the law refusing them an inheritance? Was it all about the money and the land? Or were they more concerned with the loss of their fathers’ name?
