FAITH CAPSULE: Do not become a victim of sin.

Psalm 73, 94

Know God, do not be a sinner in the name of God.
At this moment, it is time to turn to God and not be a victim of sin.
When the children of Israel came out of the bondage of over four hundred years for their journey to the Promised Land, they all passed through the Red Sea.
The whole population of the Israelites journeyed under the same cloud of protection; God gave them all the same light and fire to lead them as direction and protection.
As they all journeyed, they all drank from the same rock as God allowed. God is good.
God is a merciful God.
Imagine the mercy of God towards the sins and sinning of the world?
Ecclesiastes 8:11-13 records the goodness of God, “Because the sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil. Though a sinner does evil a hundred times, and his days are prolonged, yet I surely know that it will be well with those who fear God, who fear before Him. But it will not be well with the wicked; nor will he prolong his days, which are as a shadow, because he does not fear before God.”
During the journey, sinners and non-sinners were all together.
They experienced what the Lord was doing to keep them in their journey.
However, at the time of God, all were separated.
Sinners from non-sinners got separated by God according to their doings.
God did not struggle or experience the failure to identify sinners from non-sinners among the population of the Israelites.
God is a merciful God; He is a long-suffering God; He alone is in control of time, and He operates at His appointed time of separating sinners.
Until the appointed time of God to separate sinners from non-sinners, the blessing of God reached the whole population of Israelites.
Are you getting away with sin yet, enjoying the blessings of God that cover the whole population of sinners and non-sinners of the earth?
From the beginning of the year till this moment, the mercy of God has been answering the population of sinners and non-sinners.
However, think about the journey of the Israelites, where sinners were eventually separated by not crossing into the Promised Land.
At this moment, it is time to turn to God and not be a victim of sin.
God does not overlook sin; no sinner is out of His reach, but He is waiting for the appointed time to separate sinners from non-sinners.
God is not in a rush to do what He has set out to do.
The timing of God is not the same as the clock that operates in the world.

Prayer for today: Ask that the mercy of God answer for you, not to be a victim of sin.
