Today’s Insight in the Word-
Genesis 6 – The Lord God desires everyone come to know Him and build a relationship with Him. When the Lord created man and saw how evil we were becoming He was grieved in His heart. The Lord throughout the Bible states that He wants us to prosper (Jeremiah 29:11), He wants all to be saved and come to know the truth (2 Timthoy 2:4), to not perish but have everlasting life (John 3:16). Why would we not want to be filled with joy? Why not live in eternity where there are no tears (Revelation 21:4 “He will wipe away every tear from their eyes. Death will exist no longer; grief, crying, and pain will exist no longer, because the previous things have passed away.”)? Is it so much to ask that we stop evil and live for the Lord God who loved us first, even when we were covered in filth from the world? Oh, to be given such gifts when none were deserved.
Vs 5,6 – “When the LORD saw that man’s wickedness was widespread on the earth and that every scheme his mind thought of was nothing but evil all the time, the LORD regretted that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart.”
Walking in the Word – I want to live for the Lord and give my all to Him. I am tired of being complacent and watching the world pass by. I want to actively help and love those in the world through the eyes of Christ Jesus!
Prayer Response to the Word – Abba, Father, I love You for knowing me. Who am I that You would see me? Who am I to deserve such gifts from Heaven? Use me in Your will that I may not perish without sharing Your great news and power with others. In the end I pray that I glorify You more with my life and that You smile down upon me. I pray that when my body ceases to live, that my soul may dwell in Your house forever! I bless You Father and thank You for being my mighty God and Savior! I ask You remember us Lord! In Jesus’ name, Amen and Amen!
