Judges 6:6 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Here is the first cry of grace which we meet with in the Lord's heritage under all their sufferings? Seven whole years of misery before that one cry to the Lord for deliverance is heard. No doubt Israel did as you and I have done under our sorrows, that is, tried every resource but the right, and every effort of human policy and human contrivance before application is made to God himself. And never would the heart of either be brought to God, unless that God by his grace in the heart had inclined the sinner to seek him. Doth the Reader know this? Is he most solemnly convinced of it. If not: oh! that the Holy Ghost may be his teacher! 1 John 4:19.
