2 Samuel 16, Psalms 115, Romans 16
What God said to me – Which came first – ungodly people or ungodly leaders? The answer is an indictment of the world you live in. I could remove all of the ungodly leaders in the world today and by tomorrow they would be replaced with more ungodly leaders. The vast majority of people have turned their backs on Me and what is holy and good. They have chosen to go their own way. In their “sophistication” they would never acknowledge that they are idol worshippers, but they are. They worship themselves and their wants and desires. They reject My holiness and My truth and My people because all of these things bring conviction of their own sin. Rather than repent, they reject My word and they justify their sin and elect leaders who agree with and reflect their own ungodliness. So what are My people to do – how are they to live in this ungodly place? You are to stand firm for what is right and trust in Me as you eagerly await My return. Your hope is in Me.
