Spirit of the Lord came upon him speaking of othniel and he judged israel and went out to war And the lord delivered delivered kushan rishithayim the king of mesopotamia into his hand and his hand prevailed against kushan rishithayim So what do we see we see that it took a spear-filled man? to come And deliver israel out of the hand of kushan rishithayim What is that? What is that a picture of a picture of a preacher sometimes? And look what it says there it says the spirit of the lord came upon him and he judged israel Because think about this you think he just came and just like don't worry guys live as pagan as you want I'll just take care of this king of mesopotamia. No, he judged israel first and basically told him. Hey, you guys need to repent Put away the false gods repent of this wicked deed put away all your garbage and your sinfulness and then i'll deliver you So the deliverer othniel was not just to deliver to deliver them from the hand of the enemy he was there to judge israel In like manner that's what a pastor is for in like manner That's what a preacher is for a preacher is there to encourage you to go forward for god to help you to be delivered From bad habits or from false ideologies, but it's also here to judge you Don't judge me then you need to go somewhere else if you don't want to be judged Go to no judging baptist church But you know what the the deliverer can only deliver if he judges the nation first Okay And look if you were to judge yourself, you wouldn't be judged You know, hey israel if you would have just obeyed the lord And just repented you wouldn't have needed othniel to come and deliver you from the hand of kushat rishat You could have just obeyed god conquered land, but you know what it took it took you crying out to the lord A deliverer being raised up by the name of othniel And judging you for your wicked idolatry and then delivering you from the hand of the king of mesopotamia And that's how it works today, you know, and you know christians should not get mad at the pastor Christians should not get mad at the man of god and look other pastors should not get mad at the man of god You know, especially if the members of their church are listening to people who preach the word of god harshly, right? Hey, they're cleaning up your church members lives so they can be good church members for you You should be thankful for that
