The book of Judges gives us a repeated example of grace. The people rebel against God, and so God sends judgment. Finally, the people call out for help. God could have let them continue to suffer the results of their sin. He could have let the enemy continue to dominate them. Instead, God shows his grace. He raises up judges through whom he rescues his people. God sends deliverance. Likewise we too have rebelled against God and deserve only judgment. But if we cry out to him, God will send us deliverance. He has raised up Jesus to rescue us from our sin and the devil. We don’t deserve it, but God sends his grace.
