Oh To Be Wise Meditations
There is something majestic about holiness. How God can take the corrupt heart of man and make a beautiful holy life out of it. It’s nothing that man could ever do, but many try to take credit for. Sometimes false prophets spoke to the people of Israel. False teachers will also sneak in and speak harmful lies to you. But these teachers don't really belong to the Master who paid a great price for them, and they will quickly destroy themselves.
Many people will follow their evil ways and cause others to tell lies about the true way. They will be greedy and cheat you with smooth talk. But long ago God decided to punish them, and God doesn't sleep. God did not have pity on the angels that sinned. He had them tied up and thrown into the dark pits of hell until the time of judgment. And during Noah's time, God did not have pity on the ungodly people of the world. He destroyed them with a flood, though he did save eight people, including Noah, who preached the truth. God punished the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah by burning them to ashes, and this is a warning to anyone else who wants to sin. Lot lived right and was greatly troubled by the terrible way those wicked people were living. He was a good man, and day after day he suffered because of the evil things he saw and heard. So the Lord rescued him. This shows that the Lord knows how to rescue godly people from their sufferings and to punish evil people while they wait for the day of judgment. But watch how the supernatural power of Holy Spirit changes lives. It’s beautiful to watch if you let your pride go. So many rely on self help and gurus for real change. But nothing can substitute for the personal presence of Christ in your life. That is the remedy for any thing your facing and can’t overcome. We are called to lead people to Jesus and then turn them over to his love and care. Guiding them as we live and set an example for them. But to all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God. They are reborn, not with a physical birth resulting from human passion or plan, but a birth that comes from God. Hear Jesus words: Do not be amazed that I said, 'You must be born again. Yes, its supernatural, but its possible. All things are possible with God.
