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

HOLINESS REVIVAL MOVEMENT WORLDWIDE Daily Devotional EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING  _BY_ *PASTOR PAUL RIKA*  Int'l Director        (Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide) THURSDAY NOVEMBER 1 , 2018  _TOPIC:_    *YOU WILL SUCCEED AS CHRIST DID BY PRAYER*           TEXT: John 16: 23-24. KEY VERSE: It came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, one of His disciples said, Lord, teach us how to pray as John taught his disciples. Luke 11: 1. When Jesus Christ came to us in the flesh, He went into the business of prayer because He was promoting the attribute of God as a prayer-answering God. He would not render that attribute idle or redundant. Nobody knew how John did it, but Jesus reveals here that the success you saw in the ministry of John the Baptist, the victory you saw in his ministry, is because he was a prayer man. John so much valued prayer. He saw the essentials of pr...
