“You have wearied the Lord with your words. ‘How have we wearied him?’ you ask. By saying, ‘All who do evil are good in the eyes of the Lord, and He is pleased with them.’ or ‘Where is the God of justice?’ Malachi 2:17
Let’s PRAY! Lord, chaos abounds and our world is full of claims that evil is good. Father, we ask that you help us discern good from evil and not be deceived. We confess our nation, founded on your commands, has fallen short of Your Glory. We need Your mercy even when we know we have wearied you with our disobedience. Help us Father to turn from our disobedience in full surrender to Your perfect will so that we may see multitudes come into the Kingdom.
