Genesis 6:1-8
TOPIC:
FAVOUR IN THE MIDST OF TOTAL UNGODLINESS
Man is totally depraved
and sinful. Man in his natural state is totally sinful, wicked and evil such
that there is no good in him. And that includes us all.
Everyone, without
exception, in his or her natural state, is capable of unimaginable sin,
wickedness and evil.
Jeremiah 17:9-10 says,
“The heart is the most deceitful thing there is and desperately wicked.
No one can really know
how bad it is!” If not for the general grace of God that restrains sin,
wickedness, and evil (2 Thessalonians 2:1-12), and the coming of Christ and
consequent work of the Holy Spirit in the hearts of men and women who put their
faith in Him as Saviour and Lord, this world would have been ripe for
destruction like the time of Noah several times over!
Nevertheless, no matter
the multiplication and intensity of sin, wickedness, and evil, if we remain
faithful to God in this increasingly sinful, wicked, evil, and godless world,
we shall experience His favor like Noah.
QUESTION:
Have you accepted Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord and have been born again or
are you still in your natural sinful, wicked, evil and godless state?
PRAYER:
Oh God, help us all realize that in our natural state, we are sinful, wicked,
evil and godless. Grant me the grace to as many are yet to repent and accept
Jesus as Savior and Lord. Amen.
Remain
Blessed
