Micah 2:6
“Don’t say such things,” the people say.
“Don’t prophecy like that. Such
disasters will never ome our way!”
Like many before Him, Micah was warning people
of their impending doom because of their sin.
He was trying to convince them that they needed to return to God before
they felt the wrath of God. God declared
that judgment was coming, but the people were not listening. They were not willing to admit that they were
needing to be held accountable for their rebellion against God. They were in denial and wanted Micah to stop
his preaching.
Things are much the same today as they were in
Micah’s day. God has raised up many
voices to declare that judgment is coming.
The warnings are loud and clear, “Repent! The day of our salvation is now!” God is love and He is merciful, but He is
also holy and He will not let sin run rampant indefinitely. No one is going to escape their Judgment Day. No one is going to get away with rejecting
God and living in sin.
There are many voices, inside and outside the
church, who are trying to silence God’s modern day prophets. People don’t want to hear messages of
judgment and accountability. They don’t
want to hear of a God who will not embrace them in love just the way they
are. So many are proclaiming the message
of God’s love and ignoring His message of holiness.
The reality is that God has not changed. He is holy love. He loves us and desires that all will repent
and have a relationship with Him. But,
God cannot have a relationship with an unholy people. He has shown us clearly the way of life that
pleases Him and when we refuse to live it, He will honor our choices but hold
us accountable for them.
Certain disaster is coming to the earth. God is going to take the righteous out of the
world so that they don’t have to live through the mess that is coming. God is going to rid the world of sin once and
for all. All who reject Him will end up
in hell for all of eternity. Saying it
isn’t so won’t change a thing. God has
declared it’s going to happen regardless of how we may feel about it.
Are you ready for your Judgment Day?
