Today's verse is 1 Kings 9
And they shall answer, Because they forsook the LORD their God, who brought forth their fathers out of the land of Egypt, and have taken hold upon other gods, and have worshipped them, and served them: therefore hath the LORD brought upon them all this evil.
My primary focus for this blog is to give an encouraging word, yet I also have found that it is good to know what the boundaries are. Take the verse above, and its context, will God allow us to do as we please, following the wickedness of our own desires, without consequence? No! Absolutely Not! And if Israel, the People chosen of God, were destroyed because they failed to give God the Glory he is due, what should happen to any other Nation which once also was Identified as a people of God? And God will not bring them back, as he has Israel, for they will have served their purpose. So, let us return to the Word, the one who died for us, and repent, and once again hear and head the written Word of God, and pray and see if God will forgive our sin and heal our Land. Amen.
To God be the Glory
