Easier said than done

Job 36:7-10 

He does not take His eyes off the righteous;
but with kings on the throne
He seats the righteous and exalts them forever.
8 But if they are bound in chains,
and held captive by the cords of affliction,
9 then He reveals to them what they have done,
and their transgressions,
that they were behaving proudly.
10 And He reveals this for correction
and says that they must turn from evil.

 

 

Easier said than done ... how does God communicate?

How can certain leaders be so misled by self?

Is it not a wonder that most of the population

follow some men ... at times straight into hell?

 

God is not the Author ... of any iniquity,

but like in the pharaoh’s case He can harden the heart.

In the end He said ... He made some to show His Glory,

His power and Almightiness as He did from the start

 

When He made the heavens ... He did not use the pharaoh’s cat.

When He built the galaxies ... He did not use the men of Babel.

When the Fall developed ... He saw the rising despots

as He described that long before ... to show that He is able.
