Psalm 91:8
Psalm 91:8
Enough is enough!
This verse is worthy of a moment’s pause. There are many today who preach and teach that the world is on the brink of disaster, even the ungodly predict that we cannot continue to live in this way. The human race is battling against “climate change”, natural disasters and world-wide plagues. Our economic strategy is on the brink of collapse, all the wealthy countries have borrowed far too much on the premise that their economies will continue to grow. Meanwhile, at least 9 nations have stockpiled nuclear weapons that are capable of destroying our planet, and no one knows the full extent of the chemical and biological weaponry that has been produced. The “ruler of this world” thinks that he is getting close to its final destruction although Psalm 2 reminds us that the Lord God scoffs at the kings and rulers that have banded themselves together against the Lord.
Hand in hand with the terrifying scenarios that are being predicted goes a world that is in denial, that has rejected the Creator and that is hell-bent on rebelling against His laws and His plans. So yes, the punishment of the wicked will come soon, if God was angry enough to flood the world at the time of Noah, He must be getting close to that moment of intervention today. Heaven will cry, “Enough is enough” and evil will get its just reward. Many teachers and Bible students predict that when the time of “tribulation” comes and God’s wrath is poured out upon the earth, those who believe must endure it too. Not according to this verse! “You will only observe with your eyes and see the punishment of the wicked.” I do not believe that we will have to endure the judgements that are to come, Jesus promised to go and prepare a place for us in His Father’s house, and then to return and take us to be with Him. We long for that day!
