Verse 7
“Villagers in Israel would not fight; they held back until I, Deborah, arose,
until I arose, a mother in Israel.”
During a national crisis, Deborah arose, not as a prophetess, not as a judge,
but as a mother!
Verse 4
“Now Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lapidoth, was judging Israel at that time.”
Lapidoth (lapiydot) – torch or lightning
CHOOSING THE RIGHT ROAD

13. “For broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it.”
14. “But narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.”
Judges 4:8 (NIV)
Barak said to her, “If you go with me, I will go; but if you don’t go with me, I won’t go.”
Barak (baraq) – lightning flash
“But narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.”
The Canaanites will try and make our kids one of “the many,” but mamma will fight to insure they are one of “the few”!
