DO NOT PROVOKE THE OTHER SIDE OF GOD

God bless you for taking the time to study.

TOPIC: DO NOT PROVOKE THE OTHER SIDE OF GOD

TEXT: PSALM 37:17-20 

TUESDAY MAY 30th 

KEY VERSE: “For our, God is a consuming fire.” (Hebrews 12:29).
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. God’s goodness is expressed in his patience with sinful mankind and his 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). 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: 
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.

Song for the day: My lifetime, I will give God my lifetime

Bible reading for the day: 1 Chronicles 28-29; John 11:47-57

THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD. THURSDAY 30 DECEMBER THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS TEXT: NUMBERS 14: 26-31  Key verse: Matthew 20:16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many  be called, but few chosen. Completion of the angelic message: The Lord continued. “Because of this mandate given to you, I am removing around you the uncircumcised leaders. I am going to fill their place with righteous and holy leaders from various nations and races.” Truly I had pondered if any minister has suffered like this. People I loved, cherished and lived peacefully with suddenly began to speak evil against me to my shock. Well, it happens in politics, but is limited to their countries, whereas mine is international! Yes, some ministers may have suffered these things, but that was before the advent of the Internet, so their sufferings were limited. Maybe through letters or newspapers for a limited time, but my own is in the world of the I...
