“22But on that day I will set apart the land of Goshen, where my people dwell, so that no swarms of flies shall be there, that you may know that I am the Lord in the midst of the earth.” – Exodus 8:22 (ESV)
The LORD put up a wall of protection for His people so they would not experience the plague of flies. This may seem like a small thing, but the He continued(s) to guard us. Noah built the ark and he and his family were spared. The Israelites were guarded from the flies and other plagues. The Israelites were delivered by way of dry ground to cross the Red sea. St. Paul’s Church, less than 100 yards from the World Trade Center, was spared in New York on 9/11. The LORD continues to guard his people.
Now, I know that some would and have worked to find ways to explain all of these events. And yes, there may be some scientific explanation for them. But, as God created all things, He created the science as well.
“11Worthy are you, our Lord and God,
to receive glory and honor and power,
for you created all things,
and by your will they existed and were created.”
— Revelation 4:11 (ESV)
I am not here to debate the explanations behind how things happened. I am only here to give my thoughts and show that the LORD’s wrath is real and that as a child of God, I am guarded against that wrath. I have been saved by grace and as such have receive everlasting life in heaven. This world is only a place for me to be right now until my times comes to be with the LORD. And, as long as I am here, I will be guarded against His wrath.
What is your position in this world? Are you subject to the wrath of God? What if you were to accept the grace of God through salvation and be guarded against His wrath in this world?
