Nobody can pretend ignorance in order to excuse their sins (part 11):

Behold where we can see His wisdom:

3 – in the mountains and hills (Prov 8:25):

There are moments that everything looks lost. We feel as the Psalmists:

  • “I will lift up my eyes to the hills. Where shall my help come from?” (Psa 121:1);
  • “My God, my God, why have You forsaken me, and are far from my deliverance, and from the words of my groaning?” (Psa 22:1).

Can you be sure that Christ didn’t forsake you. We are those who turn our backs against the Creator so that we can’t see Him. This when we don’t build a mountain (named “sin”) between us and the Creator (Isaiah 59.1,2).

Of course, there are moments that we feel as Micah:

  • “Woe is me! For I am like the gatherings of summer fruits, like the grape-gleanings of the vintage. There is no cluster to eat; my soul desires the first-ripe fruit.” (Mic 7:1).

There are so many injustices taking place around us and in all the world that we think that there is no solution to the world.

Well, to the world, not; but, for us and for many people there are hope. Christ in us is the hope of all the world (Matthew 5:14-16; John 8:12; 9:5). But, for this, it is necessary we adopt the conduct of these three servants of the Creator in our life:

  • “My help comes from Jehovah, who made Heaven and earth.” (Psa 121:2);
  • “Jehovah the Lord is my strength, and He will make my feet like hinds' feet, and He will make me to walk on my high places. To the chief singer on my stringed instruments.” (Hab 3:19);
  • “Therefore I will look to Jehovah; I will wait for the God of my salvation. My God will hear me!” (Mic 7:7).

Moreover, don’t matter the greatness of your problem, live what is written in the Psalm:

  • “Those who sow in tears shall reap in joy. He who goes forth and weeps, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.” (Psa 126:5,6).

Certainly it will come about you what happened with Job:

  • “And Jehovah turned the captivity of Job when he prayed for his friends. Also Jehovah added to Job all that had been his, to double. And came to him all his brothers, and all his sisters, and all those who had known him before. And they ate bread with him in his house, and consoled him and comforted him over all the evil that Jehovah had brought on him. Each one also gave him a piece of money, and each one a ring of gold. And Jehovah blessed the latter days of Job more than the beginning… (Job 42:10-12).

So, may the hills and mountains serve to you so that you can see the hugeness of the Creator. After all, as it is impossible that the created thing is greater then its Creator, therefore, the greater is the mountain, the greater is the certainty that the Creator is more magnificent than we can imagine.

Have a good day poring on this.
