Judges | God’s Faithfulness to Unfaithful People
 (8:1-35 — The Dangers of Human Leadership, Pt.2)

Judges 8:1-35

God-given leadership, while it is a blessing, also becomes a test for both the leader and the people they lead.

“Leaders unaware of the spiritual war that is ministry begin to minister with kidnapped hearts, distorted vision, and misguided motivations.” — Paul Tripp

Pitfalls for Leaders:

  • Difficulty: Frustration with people that leads to hardness 

Numbers 20:1-12; Galatians 6:9

  • Success: Forgetfulness of God that leads to vanity 

2 Chronicles 26:15-16; 1 Corinthians 10:12

Every human leader is ultimately going to disappoint their people BUT that’s okay, if both are looking to Jesus.

Romans 4:20-22; Psalm 69:6
