Genesis 6:13 (NKJV) 13 And God said to Noah, “The end of all flesh has come before Me, for the earth is filled with violence through them; and behold, I will destroy them with the earth.
It’s interesting that certain people, such as scientists, kings, political leaders, people with power, etc. think that they are untouchable and can do whatever they want.
They don’t realize how powerful God is and that the power they think they have, they don’t have at all. They only have what God allows them to have.
We also do not have the power or control we think we have.
Do we understand that in a split second all that we have worked for, our money, home, business, ministry, family, etc., could be gone? That’s right, just like that.
What causes us to think that we are in CONTROL and have power over our own lives?
It’s a false sense of security, and it stems from pride. And pride is not from God.
Proverbs 1:7 (NKJV) 7 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, But fools despise wisdom and instruction.
Just a little reminder today about Who is really in control and that our fear should not be of man or of losing what we have built up in treasures. Instead, we should have a reverent fear of our Lord, His might and His power and all that He is.
If we want to put our efforts into building anything worth keeping, build it in knowing Him and following His commandments. He is our strong tower.
Proverbs 18:10 (NKJV) 10 The name of the Lord is a strong tower; The righteous run to it and are safe.
