He got this so wrong in so many places. Jael didn't keep asking him if he wanted this and that, but rather, Sisera ran to her because he knew her husband, and told her to give him a drink of water (she gave him milk to make him drowsy), let him lay down (she covered him with a rug), and he TOLD HER to stand by the door of her own damn house and if "someone" (in Hebrew: a MAN) comes to the tent and asks you if you've seen me, tell them no. Well, he didn't know the prophesy of Deborah (which this pastor thought was just a petty argument instead of a prophesy of God); that because Barak had such little trust that God would protect him, it would be forever memorialized in song and scripture that the defeat would be won by a woman (in the beginning, we assumed this meant that it was Deborah who was going to win defeat for the Israelites, but that's too easy! She was already a prophetess and a judge with power, and God wants to remind us that anyone, no matter how insignificant we think they might be, is powerful enough, strong enough, brave enough, important enough...to be used by God), and that is why God drove Sisera to Jael's home, where she followed God's command. Jael already had the skill to drive the peg into his head with one blow. In her tribe, as with most nomadic tribes of the time and even many today, it was the women who built the houses/set up the tents. They had a ton of practice, and knew exactly how to stretch out the tent lines and plow those giant tent pegs into the ground with one or 2 swings over the head. These weren't those small tent spikes we go camping with; they were huge, heavy tent pegs with large hammers that the women only knew how to use. This story was about obeying God using exactly what you have and what you know at the time. God perfectly and purposely drove him right into the arms of a housewife, whose husband he knew, who at least OUTWARDLY had a peace treaty with the Caanites (Jael had more integrity than her husband because she knew that you cannot fear God AND another at the same time, so you must choose a side) so that he would feel completely safe and would turn off his defenses.
You sound like a feminist. Jael obviously poisoned Sisera, and the tent pegs were very long and sharp, and any gender can use tent pegs and hammers Jael didn't beat up Sisera. Stop trying to twist scripter.
Those tent pegs were not giant and heavy. Your just some feminist trying to masculinize Jael and prove the lie that women and men are equal in physical strength. That's sick. Of course any woman can kill any man. But a woman can't overcome a man's strength. The milk that Jeal gave Sisera oblivious either had poison or wine in it so that she could weaken him and have sex with him than was easily able to kill him. So Sisera obviously wasn't a weakling, he just got tricked by Jael. I am speaking Our Heavenly Father's truth!
@@bibleguy1207 Look, you're not doing much credit to our case. I believe in the lack of ethics on Ja'el's part as much as you do, but you can't go around basing your whole argument on unsubstantiated claims that the milk was drugged. Milk makes one sleepy. *I* drink some before bed sometimes.
The biggest battle we will fight in this life is the battle against sin. Charles Spurgeon once gave a sermon where he compared Sisera to sin. He asserted that we should not be content to see our sins simply fleeing from us; we should be ready to pursue them and then to drive them into the ground-dead-with a nail, the way Jael did. The only one who can help us do that is Jesus. We should be constantly ready to run to him, confess our sins, and then bask in the victory of the cross. Colossians 2:13-15 paints a beautiful picture of the victory Jesus gave-and continues to give us-over sin: And you, who were dead in your trespasses and the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses,by canceling the record of debt that stood against us with its legal demands. This he set aside, nailing it to the cross. He disarmed the rulers and authorities and put them to open shame, by triumphing over them in him. Sisrra preyed on diverse colors … diverse colours were what kings daughters that were virgins wore (Tamar) Women= church Many women in the tent with jael Mother of sisera …. Her wise women = apostate women Walter Veith end time prophecy sermon = excellent
Great Preaching 👍
Oh how I miss Pastor Pearson....
Beautiful sermon

Pastor Walter Pearson preaching on the topic Be Careful Where You Sleep.
The biggest battle we will fight in this life is the battle against sin.
Charles Spurgeon once gave a sermon where he compared Sisera to sin. He asserted that we should not be content to see our sins simply fleeing from us; we should be ready to pursue them and then to drive them into the ground-dead-with a nail, the way Jael did.
The only one who can help us do that is Jesus. We should be constantly ready to run to him, confess our sins, and then bask in the victory of the cross. Colossians 2:13-15 paints a beautiful picture of the victory Jesus gave-and continues to give us-over sin:

This he set aside, nailing it to the cross. He disarmed the rulers and authorities and put them to open shame, by triumphing over them in him.
Sisrra preyed on diverse colors … diverse colours were what kings daughters that were virgins wore (Tamar)
Women= church
Many women in the tent with jael
Mother of sisera …. Her wise women = apostate women
Walter Veith end time prophecy sermon = excellent
Very inspiring, thank you for the video!
Amen
