HOW DO YOU STAND

PROVERBS 29:16 'When the wicked are multiplied, transgression increaseth, but the righteous shall see them fall.'(KJV) PROVERBS 21:12 'The righteous manwiselypondereththe house of the wicked; but God overthroweth the wicked for their wickedness.'(KJV) PSALM 37:34 ' Wait on the Lord, and keep his ways, and he shall exalt thee to inherit the land, when the wicked are cut off, thou shall see it.'(KJV) We are living in a time of overwhelming wickedness. Sin has been so accepted that sinfulness is now considered normal. Godliness has been overcome by the wickedness of our day.

Our scripture states that this would be the case. Wickedness is multiplied then transgressions increase.

Our scripture says the righteous shall see them fall.

Those who are faithful believers in the Lord and His righteousness will find that God is and will continue to take care of them.

No matter what the whole world does against God--God is in control- He knows how bad things are getting. He will not let it get much worse before He has finally reached out to the lost souls for the last time.

Our scripture tells us that the righteous who follow God's Word will see the wicked around them, and not participate in the wickedness, but will see God will overthrow the wicked folks.

We can see His time of generous long waiting for man's repentance is coming to an end.

God is merciful, gracious, forgiving, and all-loving--but when the world decides to refuse God's love and generosity we will see Him overthrow all those who have refused to repent and turn back to loving, honoring, and serving Him.

The day is coming and I believe very soon.

There are still some souls who will believe in Jesus, trust in Him, and repent and get saved by His blood, and because of this I believe that is why Our Lord is holding off His rebuke of the world.

It is our job, as those who have been saved, to do our best to win over some of the unrighteous sinners to Christ before the time to do so will be over for them.

Do you believe---how do you stand with God?
