following the rules… Ephesians
5:6 Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of such things God's
wrath comes on those who are disobedient. (NIV) Imagine what your world would be like if everyone decided to
follow their own rules and ignore the rules of society. There would be chaos.
The order of the world would be gone. In contrast, the underpinning of every
human achievement is self-disciple and self-control. Self-discipline and
self-control are required to follow the rules of life. God has rules.
Unfortunately, we too often do not follow God's rules because we are disobedient and
go our own way. However, the consequences of disobedience can be severe. To
follow God's rules requires we be self-disciplined and self-controlled. When you
disobey God's rules and go your own direction, the consequences of disobedience
are what we call, the wrath of God. The more you follow God's rules, the more
peace, love, caring, and compassion you will receive from God. |
