The fool says in his heart

                                                                          Psalm 53:1-6

The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.”  They are corrupt, doing abominable iniquity; there is none who does good.   God looks down from heaven on the children of man to see if there are any who understand, who seek after God.  They have all fallen away; together they have become corrupt; there is none who does good, not even one.   Have those who work evil no knowledge, who eat up my people as they eat bread, and do not call upon God?  There they are, in great terror, where there is no terror!  For God scatters the bones of him who encamps against you; you put them to shame, for God has rejected them.   Oh, that salvation for Israel would come out of Zion!
When God restores the fortunes of his people, let Jacob rejoice, let Israel be glad.

 

My dad loved history, he was a reader and a seeker of truth, and often he says, if only we learned from history, we would not have to repeat it.  But we live in a culture that is anti-God, it wants to be its own authority and its own god.  We as a culture are experiencing the ramification of telling God we have no place for Him in our education system and our government.  We also from the first child killed at the conventions of the mother, have devalued life, and have become a nation that has mass murdered over 66 million children, and we wonder why life has little value to many.

 

Yes, we have many who God calls fools in all segments of life, and in the state, local, and national government, corporations, and media of all kinds.  Remember it is not I that set the guideline for a fool, it is God who has done so.

 

And many of these so-called leaders show their hate for God’s Church during the Covid outbreak.  But God will protect His church just as He protected His chosen.
