When people say “The Lord is good all the time” and “all the time the Lord is good,” they are confessing the abundance of God’s grace, His unfathomable mercy and immeasurable benevolence. The goodness of God is vast and beyond full understanding. The psalmist says in Psalm 34:8, “O taste and see that the LORD is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him.” God’s goodness is expressed in his patience with sinful mankind and love for His enemies. He does not want anyone to perish, but wants all to come to repentance and be saved 1 Timothy 2:4). In His goodness, “he maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.” - Matthew 5:45. But God’s universal grace, love and goodness as expressed to the righteous and wicked alike is not to be mistaken for the endorsement of wickedness amongst men. Often, sinners tend to be carried away by the richness of God’s goodness and erroneously conclude that it is impossible for God to damn anybody to hell. Their ears are attentive to Satan who assures them that they will not be called to account. Will God not actually call the wicked to account? The psalmist pondered this question, “Wherefore doth the wicked contemn God? He hath said in his heart, Thou wilt not require it” (Psalm 10:13). The judgment of God is as sure as His salvation. Heaven and hell are eternal realities. It is the height of self-delusion to imagine that hell does not exist or to think that sinners will escape God’s righteous judgment. The experience of hell is beyond human description. The fear of hell should make sinners run to God. The bible describes the end of the wicked in hell thus: “And they shall go forth, and look upon the carcases of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring unto all flesh.” Why invite the other side of God? Why face his fierce judgment? Don’t you know that the gracious God is also a consuming fire? It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God. Do not take the grace and benevolence of God for granted. Repent today and escape the coming wrath that will fall on all those who have despised God. Thought for the day: God’s delayed judgment is to create an opportunity for you to repent, not to continue in sin. Repent today, confess Jesus and receive eternal life. Song for the day: My life time, I will give God my life time Bible reading for the day: Psalm 10-12; Acts 17:16-34 #horemow.

Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All

God's blessing shall be following you continually for taking the time to study. Them That Sin, Rebuke Before All   Monday 24th March Text: 1 Timothy 5: 19-22 Key verse: Them that sin rebuke before all, that others also may fear. 1 Timothy 5:20 God wants you to avoid doing evil while saying you want to go to heaven. You may be a member of a worldly church and be saying, “It is my tribal church; if I leave them, they will be angry. I do not want them to be angry.” Is it God you want to make angry by your compromise? You will see the anger of God indeed. It is through the word that you perfect the people, and as a result, the Bible says, “Thou shalt not suffer sin upon your brother. Thou shall reprove him.” Your brother or sister has done a bad thing, and you do not bother. You leave them in their sins. They may do the same to other people. The Lord says, “Correct them.” Do not allow sin to be in them because sin will take them to hell. The Bible says, “Them that sin, rebuke befo...

Key verse: "To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them" Isaiah 8:20.

Except God gives the grace of interpretation to ...
