LIGHT IN OUR SINFUL WORLD! – Proverbs 14:34 Devotional
Proverbs 14:34
“Godliness makes a nation great, but sin is a disgrace to any people.”
If we were to select any type of media today, we would find a tragic display of sinful actions. I can recall a time when godly conduct was admired and sought after. That is not the case in our modern world. Our current society seems to be seeking the grungiest of the grungy to emulate.
It is a sad commentary that even some of our modern churches have chosen to give their rules and regulations (or the removal of them) a higher priority than the Word of God. In essence they have become their own god – – notice the lower case “g”.
Jesus told His disciples that a sign of the last days would be similar to the days of Noah before the flood. The people of Noah’s day were interested in only those things that satisfied their carnal appetites. Does that sound like our day and age?
It is our duty as true believers to allow our light to shine brighter than ever before as sin makes the world around us darker and darker. Are you and I shining bright for Christ in the inky darkness of this age? I pray that we are.
Blessings dear hearts. Draw near to God today, trust Him completely and be a blessing!
