“God
is a just judge; and God is angry with the wicked every day.” Psalm 7:11
Does sin get under your skin and
make you really upset? Do the doers of wickedness rankle you? Does governmental
sanctioning of evil like abortion and all manner of immorality make you angry?
Good! It makes God angry, too.
This is a simple lesson we need to
glean from the Scriptures. God is angry at the wicked. He has righteous
standards and He will ultimately call to account all those who transgress them
and do not repent of them. We should be righteously upset with sin. We should
start that with self examination and confession. But we should not idly
disregard sin around us either. We can pray with David that God will impose His
judgment against sin and deliver us from the evil around us. God is on His
throne and He will hear our prayers and act righteously. We are not alone.
Dear
Father, Guide me to see and confess sin in my life, trust Your grace to save
the lost, and trust Your anger to deal with sin in our world. Amen.
