The great deceiver wants you and I to believe that God is evil and is punishing you and that he is always ready to throw his holy wrath down upon you. God does not hate you he hates sin because it places a wall between Himself and you. He wants like any parent to be as close to you as possible.
"Oh taste and see that the Lord is good, Blessed is the man who trust in Him"! (Psalms 34:8)
We must, as Scripture admonishes, taste and see that the Lord is good. Unless you have a relationship with God, you won't know how good He is, what do you have to lose by trusting in the Lord.. After all you don't have any issues with porn or have a drinking problem, your wife and you never fight and your kids are perfect. Since your life is that good then I could see why you have no need for God. But my life is not that good even my issues have issues, so I need God to be who he says he is, cause without that I'm lost and I have no hope outside of Jesus Christ.
A man attempting to daily die to himself and become the true servant of the Lord and not his flesh.

Dr. Henry, started reading your devotionals about a week ago. Up until today I felt perhaps much of your writings were meant for Theologians, not a simple house wife and new believer. But when I read your message today, all I could say was wow. I needed that word because Church lately has been just the preacher uttering words that didn't seem to mean much. But after reading todays message I found myself on my knees crying out to God to save me to guide me and teach me of him. Cause I do want to know Jesus I want to walk with him and teach my son of God and why he needs him. Thank you for reminding me of why I need him.
I pray for your ministry and that you will continue to share the word of God, cause we need it.
Jill
