"What Seems Right, Pt 6" | Judges 3:1-14

Life has a way of pulling us away from what matters most, and the book of Judges reveals this universal human tendency through Israel's story. Spiritual drift happens gradually through compromise, integration with worldly values, and eventually forgetting God altogether. God allows trials not as punishment but as revelation, designed to show us something about ourselves or about Him. Israel's pattern of drift followed predictable stages: living among compromise, intermarriage with pagan culture, and finally serving other gods. When we drift, God responds with discipline motivated by love, always ready to raise up deliverance when we truly cry out. The key to avoiding spiritual drift lies in maintaining focus on Christ, recognizing warning signs, and choosing dependence over independence.
