SPIRITUAL DIARY FOR 05/16/2005
My Worship Time Focus: God’ Justice Seen
Bible Reading &
Meditation Reference: Revelations 6:16-17
Message of the verse: “16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall
on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from
the wrath of the Lamb:
17 For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be
able to stand?” (AV)
Those who
have had an opportunity to trust in the Lord Jesus Christ, but have turned Him
down are now crying out to the mountains, asking them to fall upon them so that
they can be hid from the Lord Jesus Christ, and from His Father who is sitting
on the throne. Verse 17 speaks of the
day of the wrath of God coming and this shows that His cup of wrath is indeed
full at this time and that means that His patience has run its course and now
His justice will be what these on earth will have to deal with. God is not vindictive, but He is just, and by
being just He cannot allow sin to go unpunished.
Spiritual meaning for my life today: I believe that the Church will be in heaven
when these things are going on and will have already gone through the judgment
seat of Christ, but at this time the Lord Jesus Christ is doing the work of
judgment upon His Church as seen in the first chapter of this book. He will judge the world without any help from
me and so I must concentrate on serving Him now while he gives me breath.
The Word of God was challenging to my heart as I read it
this morning.
My Steps of Faith
Today: Trust the Lord with all of my
heart and lean not upon my own understanding, in all of my ways acknowledge Him
and then He has promised to direct my path.
