How Long?

Scripture: Revelations 6:[10] They called out in a loud voice, “How long, Sovereign Lord, holy and true, until you judge the inhabitants of the earth and avenge our blood?”

Observation: I look around me and all the evil that is in this world and I wonder how long God is going to let this go on. I know He doesn’t want anyone to perish but each day seems worst then the last. We continue to take God out of our lives, schools and government. Homosexuality has become an alternative lifestyle, while sexual immorality grows rapidly.

Application: It is not my place to judge others and the condition of the world, but God has given me a job to do. I need to focus on what God desires of me more then what others are doing. I know that God doesn’t what any to perish, but what am I doing about it? I need to be making a difference in the lives of others so that they may receive God’s free gift of salvation.

Prayer: Dear Lord I’m beginning to really hate this place. Show me how to make it better even if it’s for one person. Give me strength and wisdom to do the things that will please you.
