From the Bishop
Whenever the nation loses its way through disobedience to God, it opens itself
to attack by the enemy, but God will always send someone to direct and deliver
the nation back to righteousness and right thinking.
At the Cross,
Bishop Benjamin |

Scripture of the Week:
Barak, Hallelujah!
Judges 4:1-7, 12-16 (The Message) The People of Israel kept right on doing evil in God's sight. With Ehud dead, God
sold them off to Jabin king of Canaan who ruled from Hazor. Sisera, who
lived in Harosheth Haggoyim, was the commander of his army. The People
of Israel cried out to God because he had cruelly oppressed them with his nine hundred iron chariots for twenty years. Deborah was a prophet, the wife of Lappidoth. She was judge over Israel
at that time. She held court under Deborah's Palm between Ramah and
Bethel in the hills of Ephraim. The People of Israel went to her in
matters of justice. She sent for Barak son of Abinoam from Kedesh in Naphtali and said to him, "It has become clear that God,
the God of Israel, commands you: Go to Mount Tabor and prepare for
battle.
Sisera immediately called up all his
chariots to the Kishon River-nine hundred iron chariots!-along with all
his troops who were with him at Harosheth Haggoyim. Deborah said to Barak, "Charge! This very day God has given you victory over Sisera. Isn't God marching before you?" Barak charged down the slopes of Mount Tabor, his ten companies following him. God
routed Sisera-all those chariots, all those troops!-before Barak.
Sisera jumped out of his chariot and ran. Barak chased the chariots and
troops all the way to Harosheth Haggoyim. Sisera's entire fighting
force was killed-not one man left.
