Wickedness of Man

Gen 6-8; Luke 3

Scripture: God saw the growing wickedness among the people. All day long they thought of nothing but sinning. He was sick at heart over His creation. He has made man in His own image, but now man was becoming even more evil. Then God said, “I have no choice but to destroy the human beings I have made. Man’s wickedness is out of control and needs to be stopped. I will also destroy the animals, including the huge creatures and those that crawl on the ground, as well as birds of the air. Man’s evil cannot be allowed to continue. It breaks my heart to see what they are doing, and in mercy I will bring this wickedness to an end and save those who love me.” Gen 6: 5-7

Observation: We cannot hide our evilness from our all mighty God who sees everything from beginning to end. He will utterly destroy those who continue to do wickedness.

Application: Bottom line is to stop sinning and breaking God’s heart every day and let God take control of my life. Let him lead it and guide me into those things that are spiritually good for me.

Prayer: Dear Lord be with me today and everyday in all that I do my it be honorable to you. What I do in secret may it be able to shine in the light of day and not dishonor you, but praise your name for you are worth.
