How Will You Know That God Is The Lord?

 

Today's verse is Ezekiel 26:6

And her daughters which are in the field shall be slain by the sword; and they shall know that I am the LORD.

    Here is a sobering question: How will you know that God is the Lord? Will you learn of him by his wrath? Or will you submit to him, having learned of his gentle goodness and his kind nature? Last month I wrote a post titled “God is able to handle your enemies.” And in it, it was made clear who the enemy was, and to and for whom God would act. Are you one, that seeing the Judgments of God on a wicked world says, “God cannot be both Good, and all powerful!” choosing therefore to remain an enemy of God, thus only knowing his Wrath, having despised the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance? Or will you give God the Glory he is due and find the reasons God has given you to be thankful, even as he has given commandment, In everything give thanks, thus finding that door to repentance and the Forgiveness that God has provided by and through his Son, Jesus Christ. Selah [Let this not depart from your thoughts.] Amen.

To God be the Glory
