DAILY MANNA FOR TODAY

An American astronomer, Percival Lowell, dedicated much of his career in the late 19th and early 20th centuries to studying Mars. He meticulously mapped and documented what he believed to be a network of canals on the Martian surface, theorising that they were built by an intelligent civilisation to transport water. Lowell’s detailed work was based on a misinterpretation of the Martian surface. The canals he observed were optical illusions caused by the limitations of telescopic technology at the time. Later, with the advent of more advanced telescopes and space missions, it was confirmed that these canals did not exist. Lowell’s years of diligent study and theorising were ultimately based on an illusion, huge resources wasted in the pursuit of a shadow.

In his numerous evangelistic endeavours, Paul the apostle arrived Athens, where he encountered “certain philosophers of the Epicureans, and of the Stoicks”. Sighting an inscription, “To the unknown God”, Paul marvelled at the devotion demonstrated by that community but felt pity for their astounding spiritual ignorance. Although the Athenians were known for their great philosophical thinking, they missed God in their search for knowledge.

Similarly, multitudes of people in our world today have continued to labour in pursuit of wealth, fame, power, popularity, and many other vanities that enslave souls and becloud their reasoning. Thus, huge financial, human, and time resources continue to go into the pursuit of shadows, taking the place of God in the hearts of women and men. This is idolatry inspired by the devil, and designed to damn souls in the lake of fire.

Like Paul in his day, many anointed preachers of the gospel call sinners to repentance, using all available media. Unfortunately, most people continue in their devotion to the “unknown god”, labouring with their hearts, yet oblivious of their eternal end. They engage in various means of worship without real salvation. It is time for you to awake from spiritual slumber, shun vanities, and embrace eternal life made available through Christ. You will need to now dedicate the rest of your life to seeking and worshiping the true God.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Worshipping without experiential knowledge of God is a futile exercise.
