“At Ease in Our Hearts!”
“Woe to them that are at ease in Zion, … for we may not
make mention of the name of the LORD.” Amos 6: 1a & 10b
Being ” … at ease in Zion … ” instead of being “alarmed
and armed” in Zion is indicative of many churches today and
most Christians in America. God seems to go about
unrecognized today, as He walks the dark hills of our
disappointments. He is refused admittance to the deep
inequities of what our souls delight in; for we find fun and
favor in the frivolity of life, in a vain search for fame and
fortune. Foolishness reigns in our most sacred places instead
of faith. The Lord is as rejected by many, as much perhaps, as
the religious Jews of Jesus’ days on earth, despising Him and
denying His deity. We silently whisper in the deep canyons of
our prideful lives, “We will not have this man to reign over
us. ” Like the disciples, who saw and enjoyed the bounty of
Christ feeding the 5,000, thus, realizing there is no need too
great for our Lord to fill, we display our disinterest, with
forgetfulness as they did (see Mark 6:52). There is no excuse
or reason to forget the past, when He has met our needs and
will! There is no limit to what He can provide, but we limit
Him by our lack of faith (see John 12:37).
Friends, there is no danger more subtle than familiarity.
We perhaps have become jaded by disappointments or defeats
in the past, and now “just-go-with-the-flow!”
Have we become people to just study and not worship?
May we get back to being awed by His majesty and in love
with Him and His work. – T.G.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
