Application:
1.
To those whose lives are “undisturbed”
(Judg. 5:31), that is, things have been and are “good” right now...Beware! Don't let down your guard! Your life can spiral
downhill
with only one
bad choice. The worst choice is to trivialize
God and live your "good" life in violation of His commands.
2.
To those who are in bondage, bitterness and brokenness because of
one or more bad choices.... Not every
negative event in your life necessarily
means you left God or that He is displeased with you. Life has some hard moments that happen regardless
of your standing with God. Before you clamp down on that truth, consider that it could
be that you're not right with God. It could
be. Call it what you want – running from God, rebellion against Him,
taking Him for granted, avoiding His presence, etc. Perhaps it's time for you
to “cry unto the Lord.” Have an honest, straightforward talk with Him. Tell Him everything He already knows is true about you, your
situation, and how you're handling it (or not). What will you discover? “Let
the wicked forsake his way and the unrighteous man his
thoughts; and let him return to the LORD,
and He will have compassion
on him, and to our God, for He will abundantly
pardon.”
(Isa. 55:7)
