Why Don’t We Fear God

Scripture Isaiah 57:11 “And of whom have you been afraid, or feared,
That you have lied
And not remembered Me,
Nor taken it to your heart?
Is it not because I have held My peace from of old
That you do not fear Me?

Observation: We haven’t seen God’s wrath in a long time and maybe we wonder if He is still around. With all of the things happening lately you would think He would do a Sodom and Gomorrah and start destroying the evil. Because God has been quiet and holding His peace we stopped fearing Him. Even though He holds everything in His hand and can pass judgement at any moment.

Application: I need to remember God is not only love but He is just. This world needs to be judged for all of the wrong it has done, for idols that are put before God and the inhumanity that is seen every day. Hell is real and was created for the demons, but so many people are going to end there. I need to warn others and to remind them to fear God’s judgement because it last forever.

Prayer My Lord, I thank you for your mercy and grace and I know I don’t deserve it. I know what I deserve and I thank you for covering me with the blood of your son. Speak to me and use me to help others see the light.
