The name Adoni-Bezek has a very significant meaning.
The first, Adoni, means lord or master and is somewhat similar to the word ba'al. Bezek comes from a mostly unused Hebrew root, which exists as a verb in Aramaic where it means to scatter. So hence he was known as the lord of the scatter.
The reason it was significant the Israelites go up to depose him first after Joshua died?
God wanted to show them, He was taking away the giant in their lives that had done nothing but scatter them and their household. What "lord" has been in your life, "scattering" your blessing, your finances, your marriage, your children, your resources?
The Word of the LORD is clear.
The Word of the LORD is clear, "And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpillar, and the palmerworm…" Joel 2:25
But it won't just come and fall into your lap. You will have to fight for it! What are you prepared to do?
