“Man’s Plans and God’s” from Micah
2:1-5
1 Woe to those who plan
iniquity, to those who plot evil on their beds! At
morning's light they carry it out because it is in their power to do it.
2 They covet fields and seize
them, and houses, and take them. They defraud a man of his home, a fellowman
of his inheritance.
3 Therefore, the LORD says:
"I am planning disaster against this people, from which you cannot save
yourselves. You will no longer walk proudly, for it will be a time of
calamity.
4 In that day men will
ridicule you; they will taunt you with this mournful song:
'We are utterly ruined;
my people's possession is divided up.
He takes it from me!
He assigns our fields to traitors.'
"
5 Therefore you will have
no one in the assembly of the LORD to divide the land by lot.
Do you think maybe God has a plan to correct
what goes on here? Do you think that those who are ok with
making a mockery of God and of Christ are not going to be wishing they
hadn’t? I don’t know about you but I sure am tired of
it. And as much as I want to get out there and start a Holy
war against these people I am reminded that it isn’t my war to win.
God is in control and even though all the bad things keep happening on
a minute by minute basis I do not lose hope of tomorrow. Knowing
what I know from the Holy Bible and the Spirit of God that lives in me through
Christ Jesus the victory is imminent. I have said over and
over again that there will come a day when we are persecuted for being
followers of Christ right here in the United States. That
time is closer than you may think. The LORD will raise up
His army on the last day and defeat the evil one who will be thrown into the
lake of fire for all eternity. We have been comfortably
sitting on our laurels and satan is slowly and methodically become bolder and
bolder and poisoning more and more minds into believing that his way is the
right way. The line between good and evil is blurred more
every day. Don’t believe me? Take a
day and watch TV. Take a walk in your neighborhood after
the sun goes down. Go to the mall and look in the clothing
stores. Drive your community and count the number of places
that sin is legal. Oh I am sure you will find some good
because God’s presence is everywhere. Evil just blurs it.
Between you me and a fence post I don’t think it will be much longer
before God starts kickin butt. My recommendation to all of
you is to be sure your right with God and then stay that way. I
don’t want any of you to be the one that Christ says, ”Away from me for I
don’t know you”. Let those that do good continue to do
good and those that do evil continue to do evil because on the day of the Lord
it will be done. I think the battle will be won with
God’s people on their knees in prayer weeping for their enemies.
