Christ interceded and continued to intercede that the believer be kept from the evil in this world! With such abundance of warnings given with such clarity, why then are we still walking contrary to these warnings?

Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity.
Let each Lord’s Day be an occasion of worship and a time to listen intently and hear the Lord’s instructions as John did with clarity and without ambiguity.
In these times of unpardonable familiarity, we speak of Him as though He is mate or equal to us.
Would you give Him the glory due to His name?
God is always willing to hear us and to answer our prayers if according to His will. He always hears the cries of His own elect or chosen ones. Indeed, God will avenge or vindicate His people.
All natural forces are rigidly under God’s control. There are no chance whirlwinds, or lightnings, or snow, or hail storms; all are in His hands.
The ice (the crystals that make snow when compressed) makes branches of trees sparkle in sunlight, but also weighs them down, causing them to break under their burden. The same can happen to those with glittering lives.
Is your service conforming to the Lord’s pattern? Or perhaps you want to see your works burnt? Shalom
To be blatantly presumptuous with God is destructive pride and irreversible consequences come with it. Such was the case with Saul who failed to take responsibility for the calling on his head, and probably nursed desire for gain instead of God.
It repenteth the Lord – What does it mean? Did God mean He made a mistake? Certainly not for one who is Omniscient. Each time the Lord is so recorded, it is the expression of emotion, a pity at the subject for the inescapable consequences of contravening the principles by which He governs all things (Job 38:33).
