DAY 24 - UNJUST JUDGMENT
Proverbs 24:24 • Audio 9mins, 2.8mb
"He that saith unto wicked, thou art righteous, him shall the people curse, nations shall abhor him." AKJV
The Gospel according to St Mark Chapter Ten verses Seventeen following spoke of a young rich ruler who approached Jesus saying, "Good master, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?" But the Lord's prima facie to his concerns was quite amazing which is the pivot of our today's discourse. He said, "Why do you call me good? There's none good but one, that is, God!" Another rendition puts it this way, "When you call me good you are calling me God, for God alone is truly good." Matt 19:17 TLB
Now the Lord said this in acknowledgement of the fact that humans, all flesh, the flesh and blood is nothing good to adhere. Even at Genesis Six we heard in the Lord's cry saying, "I regret that the human life lingers, exist." Of a truth, the human life evolved from the animals and through Serpent the most cunning of all beasts. It should not have been allowed to continue. And the reason was, this human life was always against God-life and had kept at evil, wickedness increasingly, continually.
A normal human thinks of himself first and only all the time - seeks the best for himself. This itself is wicked, let alone those human imaginations and aspirations, not minding if anybody died just so that he'd live or have his secrets covered! This animalistic life called "human" is synonymous to wickedness, the spirit of witchcraft and should not have existed. Meanwhile, God never regretted that His children lived. At least, He found Noah an herald of righteousness.
Every act of goodness we're privileged to exhibit comes only from God. Meaning that no one can ever be good except by God. Please don't struggle with that factual truth, only pray along. The flesh, human life profits nothing and should in anyway profit nothing, lest it is idolized or say in modern terms, immortalized. Listen up now, hear the Lord: How have we filled everywhere, towns and villages with idols of men for the good works and every good act they wrought, whereas it was God at work, God powered! Only God is good, this we must know!
In same vein, anyone who tries to be good without God would only be a good variant of the devil, because that so-called good will turn a virus and soon corrupt the entire systems of both the doer and recipient. Goodness and God are inseparable and a fruit of the Spirit. You just can't be good except by God. All goodnesses emanate from Him, always. Therefore, do not accord the honours of goodness to a mere human, wicked flesh and blood, corrupt flesh to rot.
