God’s Word for Today - 02 Feb 2024
Nahum 1:3 KJV — The LORD is slow to anger, and great in power, and will not at all acquit the wicked: the LORD hath his way in the whirlwind and in the storm, and the clouds are the dust of his feet.
Reflection on God’s Word for Today - 02 Feb 2024
Jehovah is unsearchable and it is impossible for the human mind to fathom the ways of the Sovereign God. But one thing is absolutely certain - God will never spare the wicked who insist on and persist in their wickedness. Nevertheless, because of His unconditional love and enduring mercy for humans, Jehovah restraints Himself from instantly executing His righteous judgement upon evildoers. The world would say “if you give a fool enough rope he would hang him- or herself”. Jehovah's intent in the matter is diametrically opposed to the world's. His will is for the wicked to reconsider their evil ways and walk away from being and doing evil. He doesn't want any soul to perish, except those that choose of their own volition to perish. Jehovah cannot hinder such, because He will not override their free will. So what would you choose?
Pray: Dear Lord, thank You for Your love and patience with me, help me to walk away from being evil. #Mok
