Isaiah
32:14
14 Because the palaces ['armown] shall be forsaken [natash]; the multitude [hamown] of the city [`iyr] shall be left [`azab]; the forts [`ophel] and towers [bachan] shall be for dens
[ma`arah] for [`ad] ever [`owlam], a joy [masows] of wild asses [pere'], a pasture [mir`eh] of flocks [`eder]; KJV-Interlinear
14 For the palace is forsaken, the populous
city deserted; the hill and the watchtower will become dens forever, a joy of
wild donkeys, a pasture of flocks; ESV
Indifference which
is disguised as interest, desire for doctrine which is described in some form
of helplessness, wherein people talk the talk, but won’t do anything themselves,
are typical descriptions of a spiritually negative society.
And sooner or
later in history, in any given nation, in society, and especially in
individuals, destruction comes into the life, when God is not in it.
Destruction plays
no favorites. The palaces of magnificence and wealth, the forts and towers of
life that people rely on, will all come tumbling down.
When economies
fail, when society fails, when nations fail, there is no resource or source of
support to look to, whether it be insurance, or possessions, or status, or
anything else.
Jesus Christ is
the source of all things good.
When Christ is not
in your life then you don’t have, all things good, you have the opposite.
And instead of the
pleasant things of life, the environment becomes a home of dens of thieves, and
the roaming ground of wild animals and nature.
And this is the
typical description of a jungle environment, where the rules of life and
happiness and safety and hope do not exist.
And so the
questions are always before each individual. What do you think of Christ? What
do you think of doctrine? Do you care enough to do something about it? And,
will you do something?
These
studies are a part of the massive daily study web site at DailyBibeStudy.Org,
and are written, so that you can come to Christ if you have not done so
already, and therefore not be lost forever.
And
if you have already believed in Christ, then these studies are written so you
can learn and understand and grow in your spiritual life, so that you can come
to the full knowledge of Christ, so that you can fulfill your meaning and
purpose in life as God intended for you, and so you can qualify for a phenomenal
eternal reward which you will have forever.
To
ignore this opportunity to pursue a daily study means you will be incomplete,
unfulfilled and you will lose out, big time.
The
Daily Bible Study is online, making it possible as never before in all of human
history, to advance in ones relationship with God, through Christ, and to
complete yourself beyond your imagination.
But
you have to decide to make that commitment.
No one else can study for you.
You have to do that yourself.
