"Only A Season"
Scripture Reading:
Psalm 92:7 (HCSB) though the wicked sprout like grass and all evildoers flourish, they will be eternally destroyed.
Psalm 92:7 (HCSB) though the wicked sprout like grass and all evildoers flourish, they will be eternally destroyed.
Devotional Reading:
There will be a day of reckoning for all…and that includes the wicked who seem to be managing quite well at present. God is just, and men reap what they sow. Mark it down: anyone who is living in defiance of Almighty God is living on borrowed time. To test this here is what one pastor did. He did a little experiment. He put together a list of five guys who were real troublemakers back when they were in high school in Cloverdale, Mississippi. He tried to pick out the worst offenders he could think of: guys who were profane, who were immoral and just out and out rebellious. Then he tried to find out what had happened to them in the years since they were in school together. One died of complications related to alcoholism. Two others were addicted to drugs and alcohol, and had several marriages between them. Their children and their children’s children were having problems similar to their own. The fourth one just disappeared. No one knew what had happened to him, or if he were dead or alive. The fifth guy he checked on was working for the government in Jackson, Mississippi.He called him to say hello, and he told him that God had changed his life. (He even told him he was attending church on Wednesday nights!) The wicked may seem to prosper for a time, but they do not prosper indefinitely. They are like grass. They have their day in the sun, then they wither and perish. Pray for them.
Keep the Son in your eyes,
