GOD IS ANGRY WITH THE WICKED
The Word of God tells us in Psalm
7:11 (KJV), “God
judgeth the righteous, and God is angry with the wicked every day.”
It is possible a person may assume
the word wicked in the above Scripture verse to refer only to someone who
commits an atrocious act against another person or group of persons, and
rightly so.
The person may say, well, that
does not refer to me since I am in right standing with God.
However, since the Word of God tells
us that God is angry with the wicked every day, let us look at some examples of
the wicked, some which would be glaring and some not so glaring but indeed very
serious too:
(1)
The wicked is anyone who
discriminates against others on the basis of ethnic nationality (race), skin
colour, tribe, social status, economic status, physical attributes, political
status, religion, etc.
(2)
The wicked is the preacher of the
Gospel, married or unmarried who commits adultery or fornicates with the
sisters in his congregation, whether married or unmarried and vice versa where
the preacher is female.
(3)
The wicked is the boss who
deliberately refuses to promote his or her staff who merits it unless that
staff engages in an illicit affair with him or her.
(4)
The wicked is the office colleague
who destroys another’s character with lies and calumny just to curry the supervisor’s
favour.
(5)
The wicked is the man or woman who
promotes, supports and contracts the murder and bloodshed of innocent lives of
unborn babies through abortion for whatever reason.
(6)
The wicked is the ritualist,
kidnapper, occultist, human trafficker, armed robber, narcotics seller, necromancer,
witch, wizard, false witness, partial magistrate, whose activities bring pain, sorrow
and even death to others.
(7)
The wicked is the concubine,
in-law (mother, father, sister, brother, aunt, uncle, relative, etc) who has
caused a separation and even divorce of a happily married couple.
(8)
The wicked is in the in-law who murders
his or her relative and then deprives his or her nuclear family of their rights
to the deceased’s estate.
(9)
The wicked is the adulterous polygamist
whose lust for female flesh has led his wife, concubines and their kids to
become sworn enemies to the extent of eliminating themselves by physical and
spiritual means.
(10) The wicked is the government worker who colludes with
others who are equally wicked to divert and steal public funds to deprive the
nation’s citizens the right to enjoy the benefits of deploying such funds to
public good.
(11) The wicked is the politician who in active connivance
with others manipulates and rigs elections to his advantage to gain political
power.
(12) The wicked is the person (employee, contractor, etc) who
receives compensation for work not done or work done but not as agreed.
(13) The wicked is the individual who cannot honour a
commitment and who cannot keep his or her word.
(14) The wicked is the employer or employment recruiter who
uses his position to curry favours from prospective employees before offering
them the job.
(15) The wicked is the paedophile parent, uncle, aunt or
neighbour who sexually abuses his or her child, relative or neighbour’s child who
is too young either to understand what is going on or to halt it.
(16) The wicked is the lecturer that demand sexual favours
and money to pass his or her students in tests and examinations.
(17) The wicked is the person who has heard, believed, received
and seen the practical benefits of the Gospel, the Good News of Repentance, Salvation
and Eternal Life found only in the Lord Jesus Christ but refuses to either pay
tithes so that the same Gospel can be taken faraway to unsaved souls or refuses
to personally share the same Gospel with others.
(18) The wicked is the person who knows the truth of the
Gospel but deliberately refuses to accept or practise it and also misleads
others to eternal damnation.
Dear friend, the Bible says God is
angry with the wicked every day. God loves the soul but hates sin.
Now stop for a moment and meditate
quietly on your daily activities, your relationship with God and human beings
using the above points (though not exhaustive) as reference.
Are you a wicked person? If yes,
Jesus Christ is giving you another opportunity to retrace your steps, repent
and return to Him as you read this. Do not reject this offer because tomorrow
or later may be too late for you.
God will judge every one of us for
our activities here on earth and the final place for all wicked people is
eternal damnation in HELL forever and ever.
I want to believe you do not want
to experience this. Please repent and give your life sincerely to the Lord
Jesus Christ and commit to obeying His commandments in the Holy Bible for the
rest of your earthly life.
May the good Lord bless you as you
heed His Word today, act on it and share with others in Jesus’ Mighty Name, Amen.
Gabriel Ama.
