My epiphany may go unnoticed, my disclosure ignored. When will there be enough evidence that Biblical Prophecy is correct, current and exacting to waken the slumbering consciousness of mankind as a whole? Apparently, though Wisdom has been standing on the hilltop heralding truth and Spirit has been proclaiming the certainty of God’s Plan throughout the history of mankind, few choose to listen. Most believe themselves outside the population group to be affected by the revealing of God’s Plan through Jesus. What is it within man that causes us to feel that laws apply to everyone else but me, that reason is for other people? Perhaps that is intersection of pride and ignorance.
This morning I wondered why God would choose any of us. Why He would choose to bless the stiff necked nation of Israel. Why He would give us so much time to turn away from our sin, folly and indecision. There is only one answer and it is to demonstrate the example that it is not of works through which any of us will be or have been redeemed. We are all undeserving and that is why Israel is the perfect example for God’s Grace. He blesses them because He Chose To Do So. He set them aside as an example of His Righteousness, His Honesty, His Faithfulness to Do What He Said that HE would do. But that has never given them or any of us a pass to choose whether or not be obedient to His call. Each time that they have disobeyed, many have suffered judgment. The same will be true going forward. We are accountable as a blessed nation and many will pay the price for our national disregard. Will we recognize our similarity to the Nation of Israel in time to forestall, avoid or mitigate the Divine repercussion? That remains to be revealed.
Bless You Father and bless the Nation of Israel because You said that it is Right to Do So.
