Good morning. Peace be with you all. Rejoice in the Lord always. "Do you think that I like to see wicked people die? says the Sovereign LORD. Of course not! I want them to turn from their wicked ways and live." Ezekiel 18:23 NLT.
Insight
God is a God of love, but He is also a God of perfect justice. His perfect love causes Him to be merciful to those who recognize their sin and turn back to Him, but He cannot wink at those who willfully sin. Wicked people die both physically and spiritually. God takes no joy in their deaths; He would prefer that they turn to Him and have eternal life. God wants us to acquire His wisdom to make us wise in His eyes.
Challenge
Likewise, we should not rejoice in the misfortunes of nonbelievers. Instead, we should do all in our power to bring them to faith. A man's wisdom illuminates him to give wisdom counsel to all who God brings into the light. Godly wisdom gives us the advantage of success according to God's ways. May God bless and protect you all and give you His wisdom. In Jesus mighty name. Amen.
