Judges 18:1-31; Judges 3:7-4:24

I fail to see the hand of God in this: Then they took what Micah had made, and his priest, and went on to Laish, against a peaceful and unsuspecting people. They attacked them with the sword and burned down their city. (Judges 18:27)

The pattern demonstrated in the Bible's book of Judges is this: Israeli people forsake the Lord. Enemies rise up and dominate them. God hears their cries and sends a judge who delivers the Israeli people. Then the Israelis enjoy peace...until the divinely-appointed judge dies.

The pattern repeats.

How many self-defeating patterns can be seen in my life?
