Acts
13:40-41
Take care that what the prophets have
said does not happen to you: ‘Look, you scoffers, wonder and perish, for I am
going to do something in your days that you would never believe, even if
someone told you. (NIV)
Scoffers
This prophecy is still alive for
today. Our nation is full of
scoffers. They are scoffing God. They scoff those of us who worship God. We already see some things occurring that are
hard to believe. If we Christians don’t
intercede, if we remain quiet in the presence of scoffers, if we turn our eyes
away from sin we are being as the scoffers for we are being disobedient to God. It is time for us to spend much time in
prayer rather than complaining. We must
make sure our own lives (actions, inactions, speech and thoughts) are in
accordance with the Word of God. If we
are not praying for our country, our government and our leaders we have no
business complaining. God promised if we
would humble ourselves and pray, He would forgive our sins and heal our
land. If we love God, if we love the
freedom to worship Him, we had better get busy and do what He has said.
