God Despises Evil

Today’s Verse:
Let them (the wicked) be like the snail that dissolves into slime; like the untimely birth that never sees the sun. – Psalm 58:8  

In this verse, David graphically conveys that God despises evil. The few verses before verse 8 say that God will spare no one who plots evil, and God laughs at those that are evil because of their naive thinking. God’s wrath will consume the wicked.

Do you recall times when you felt like you were drowning in this mortal life, when God felt distant, or like you had been knocked down?

Have you ever felt like your sin was all-consuming, or you keep falling short? Remember the God you serve.

The God that despises evil and laughs at their naïve thinking. God is still there with you and will not let you be consumed.

God is more powerful than any evil thought or action you may have or experience. His hand is always out for you to hold onto, you just have to keep reaching. – Commentary by Kristina Taylor

Today’s Prayer:
God, we are so grateful that You are always protecting us. You are our fortress and shelter. Please help us focus on You and remember that we are a part of Your eternity. The things we experience that are of this world like evil are temporary, and You are forever. Amen.
