Scripture: Judges 2:16
Judges 2:16 says, “Then the LORD raised up judges who delivered them out of the hand of
those who plundered them.” So when we ask ourselves what the purpose of a judge in Israel
was, the answer is to deliver the covenant people from the enemy who was or is suppressing
them. The second question is, How did they accomplish that goal? God would move on them
and they would prophetically declare His word. The LORD would then honor the spoken
word by fulfilling it. In Samuel’s case, not one of his words fell to the ground, all came to
pass. When the judge issued a mish-pawt then you knew God was about to bring it to pass. Is
it possible that in a kairos of favour that anointing could return to the church for the very
same reason – to deliver us from all those who are plundering us! Is it possible that in a
season of God’s favor His anointing will be restored to the church to stop the hand of the
enemy who is destroying our Christian heritage at the highest levels in the land?
