M 23 MEMORY SELECTION Tie Lend u my hr I (mt. and I will net fear -diebrews 13 e Confruion Is a word well suited to describe the wmM today. With the end of the war we hnd hoped for peace and goodwill, and what have we? We rnay learn from the experience of Israel the reasons for such confusion. They, too, had come into their land and should have had only peace and prosperity. Instead there were turmoil and disorder. Why? The success or failure of both nations and individuals is ultimately determined by their attitude toward the law of G>d He is always right and true The constant factor in a world order th.it swings wildly from one extreme to another is his law, which is perfect and eternal. God is no respecter of persons Even Israel, his own chosen nation. found that observing God's law meant blessing and failure to do so brought judgment and sorrow No man is great and powerful enough to ignore this rule, and none is exempt from it* operate n J. The Cause— Furgetting God (vv. 7, ID. The Lord had promised the land to them as they went in and possessed it by faith in him. He f illy kept that promise in the measure that they believed him. They never did take the whole land, but that was because of their failure, not God's. As the people of Israel took possession of the land they went forward in the way of blessing as long a* Joshua, and the elders who remembered God. kept them steady and true. We have here an excellent illustration of the power of a g< dly example. It is far stronger than we think The fact that a nation has been highly privileged at -I has been exalted to a pL.ee of |H>urr and honor will not -ave it in the day when God is forgotten Israel no longer had God-fearing men to bring it hack to the Lord, and so began its awful drifting We Americans are rightly proud of our great land, its mighty resources. it* fine past and promising future. But what is the future to be’ Oh. we say, the most glorious I days are ahead' They may be but I only if we. Ike our forefathers I who cstubliFi-ed this nation, recog-' nizc G id. If we do nit Americawill go the way of the forgotten empire* of centuries past, and that in spite of all its part achievements •nd its present promise. It 1* a significant thing that our business and national leaders often come from Christian homes, but it is sad that they themselves are so frequently not Christians. Their lives are shaped by the teaching and influence of godly parents, but what will their children do if they are not brought up in the fear and admonition of the Lord’’

n. The ronnition—National and spiritual ( oufuGnn (vv. 1(5-19> The history of the period of the judges in Israel is incomplete, but what we have shows the awful condition of the nation. Not only were they in separate tribes, but the people as a whole were divided into three groups—north and south of Jerusalem, and east <rf the Jordan The moral and spiritual decay were evicent in their turning to the immoral practices of Bail-worship. One would have thought that God would give up a people so set on sinning, but he did not. He provided deliverance for Israel That gives us courage, for we know that he has not given us up. but has provided in Christ a sure deliverance, if America will turn to him. R is Interesting to note that God works through men. Some of these judges were great men; others were just ordinary men. But each tn Us appointed place, at the appointed time, was God's man. Confusion, sin and disobedience cannot be tolerated indefinitely. So Israel stubbornly went on to HI. The Cwnclasion —lodgment from God (vv. 20-231. God not only will not hold a backsliding nation guiltless, but will bring judgment even if he has to turn over his people to a despoiling nation He has Instruments of Individual and national chastisement, and he Is ready to use them. Notice that wherever they went the Lord's hand was against them. There is no place to flee from the presence of God. Anyone who thinks he ean do It should read Psalm 139 7-12. It can't be done. That is a comfort to the believer, but it is very disquieting to the unbeliever. They compromised with evil, and lost not only their testimony but their very spiritual life. They forsook God and to«* into their friendship the er'rnnies of God. only tn find that they were their own enemies We are tn danger now of comproirus* With bvil. bith tn our personal and in our national lives As »e do —«nd if *e do— we may expect only Lsaetor and judgment
