DAILY MANNA FOR TODAY
In 1998, Don Moen produced his hit song, God is Good, All the Time which has become a catchphrase for Christians. The goodness of God is emphasised in the Bible. The psalmist says, ‘O taste and see that the Lord is good’. (1 Chronicles 16:34) says, “O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever”. If the goodness and mercies of God endure forever, does this imply that God has no room for discipline and judgment?
He does; therefore in our text, Apostle Paul warned the Gentiles not to take the goodness of God for granted by recalling the calamity that befell the children of Israel. The aim was to discourage them from gloating over Israel and become wise in their own conceits. He said the same fate would befall them if they behaved the same way. The passage today exposes the error in the doctrine of unconditional eternal security.
Today, believers must remember that our security is also conditional. Prosperity preachers emphasise the mercy and goodness of God but hardly warn their congregation of the danger of hell and the imminent judgment of God.
The goodness of God may be as high as the heavens, and His love may be as deep as the deepest ocean. His justice demands punishment for those who rebel against His authority and disobey His laws. “For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of man, who hold the truth in unrighteousness.” These are those who forget that, “our God is a consuming fire.”
Let us always remember the warning that, “It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.” The hands that fed the children of Israel with manna in the wilderness also punished them for their iniquities. Therefore, as you enjoy the goodness of God, beware not to incur His wrath. Steer clear of sin.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: The justice of God is a coin with two sides: reward and retribution.
