Today’s Thought “Basic Provision” G. Ward

“When the queen of Sheba perceived all the wisdom of Solomon, the house that he had built, the food of his table, the seating of his servants, the attendance of his waiters and their attire, his cupbearers, and his stairway by which he went up to the house of the Lord, there was no more spirit in her.” 1 Kings 10:4-5

 

The entire world that God loves is influenced by the majestic appearances of nations with great wealth. Along with aspirations from even the poorest of nations in attaining a similar wealth, I’m wondering if they’re prepared for the economic and material insatiability that corrupts morals? Moreover, when these same (poor in contrast to the wealthy nations) encounter the unrest (political, social, etc.) soon to visit, will their resolve maintain the trait (exhibited by wealthy nations) in reckless abandonment to Holy God’s rescue, or rely on a futile practice of man’s sufficiency?

Happy Friday (You say that I know HIM, but struggle in getting to a place of worship? 1 John 5:3)!
