Wig’s Word of God Today 3-21-2011
Stop judging and you will not be judged. Stop condemning and you will not be condemned. Forgive and you will be forgiven. Luke 6:37
Daniel 9:4b-10, Psalm 79:8, 9, 11 and 13 & Luke 6:36-38
Everyone agrees we seem to be living in the times of chaos where “supernatural” things are occurring worldwide. From earthquakes to tsunamis and everything in between, we are living in troubled times. Daniel describes a society full of sin in need of repentance because they have not followed the laws and commandments presented to them by the prophets. “We have sinned, been wicked and done evil; we have rebelled and departed from your commandments and your laws. We have not obeyed your servants the prophets, who spoke in your name to our kings, our princes, our fathers, and all the people of the land.” Daniel 9:5-6 The funny thing is a majority of the people in today’s world believe mankind should repent and follow the ways of the LORD but as a humanity nobody seems to understand what we should do about it. Obviously, there is nothing funny about the ugliness of sin in our society and the answer is to repent and be steadfast in your practice, prayer and proclamation. Amen!
Jesus tells us to stop judging and condemning and to forgive as we too will be forgiven. There was young 9-year-old boy I met this past Saturday fishing who kept saying he was sorry over and over again for asking me to borrow bait and bait his hook. “I’m sorry,” he would say in that innocent southern child voice, “but I can’t get my bait to stay on my hook. Would you please put it on for me?” Once or twice a year, I take my now 12-year-old son, Jeff, fishing in the University of Florida catfish ponds in Gainesville. UF Fisheries opens the ponds for a family fishing day for free as long as we turn the fish loose once we land them. I was wearing my “I love Jesus Christ” T-shirt with the “Follow Me, I make you fishers of men” printed on the back. The little boy asked, “are you a Christian?” I smile proudly showing him the front of my shirt. “Me too” came the answer after reading my shirt. Just as the little boy kept saying over and over again that he was sorry for asking me to help him, we too must say we are sorry for judging and condemning and repent repeatedly to accomplish the Will of God.
So we ask in prayer: Dear God, we pray today we can forgive guided by Your Word to accomplish harmony, forgiveness and peace. In Jesus Name we pray. Amen.
God Bless,
