Thank you for listening to Daily Devotionals for Nurses.
In our last episode, we wrapped up our study of Psalm 142 and began shifting from the story of one man crying out to God to the power of a collective cry. Today, we step fully into Judges 6—a chapter that begins not with prayer, but with a problem.
Before Israel cried out to God, they first had to face the truth: their disobedience had opened the door to oppression. Judges 6:1 tells us, “Then the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the Lord. So the Lord delivered them into the hand of Midian for seven years.”
This wasn’t just one person’s mistake. It was an entire nation turning away from God. And it’s a reminder for us, both individually and collectively, that sometimes the struggles we face are connected to choices we’ve made or warnings we’ve ignored.
In this episode, you’ll discover:
Why acknowledging the root cause of a struggle is essential before seeking God’s intervention.
How disobedience can open the door to unnecessary battles and seasons of hardship.
The power of repentance as the first step toward revival.
Why honesty before God brings freedom and positions you for restoration.
Key Reminder:
God’s desire is always to redeem, restore, and revive His people. But before we can experience that, we must be willing to say, “Lord, I see where I went wrong. Forgive me.” There’s no shame in admitting the truth in His presence.
As nurses, leaders, and women of faith, it’s easy to push past warning signs in pursuit of the next thing whether it’s a relationship, a job opportunity, or a personal goal. But the lesson from Judges 6 is clear: stop, listen, and align with God’s voice before you move.
When we humble ourselves, turn back to Him, and acknowledge our need, we open the door for His mercy and His miraculous intervention.
