The story of Abimelech speaks of how Gideon's weaknesses can create a situation where evil can flourish. Abimelech assumes that Israel is ready for a king, and now that that throne is empty, he is prepared to fill that need. In our churches today, many positions are filled for the wrong reasons. One must remember that it is God who calls the individual, not the family or seniority to fulfill his need for leading the church.

God Bless,
