Nobody can pretend ignorance in order to excuse their sins (part 17):
Behold where we can see His wisdom:
7 – in the clouds (Prov 8:28)
We can see in the Holy Scripture several occasion wherein the Creator used (and will use) a cloud to speak and work in the middle of His people:
• “And the LORD went before them by day in a pillar of cloud to lead them along the way, and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light, that they might travel by day and by night.” (Exo 13:21).
• And it came between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel. And it was a cloudy and dark night, but it lit up the night, so that the one did not come near the other all night. And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea. And Jehovah caused the sea to recede by a strong east wind all that night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided.” (Exodus 14:19,20).
Unfortunately, the Israelites weren’t savant to see the care and protection of the Creator leading, warming (at night) and refreshing (during the day) them. Let alone they figured out the process of the Creator to purify them:
• “For I do not want you to be unaware, brothers, that our fathers were all under the cloud, and all passed through the sea, and all were baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea,” (1Co 10:2).
The Creator spoke to them from the cloud, but they couldn’t figure out the message:
• “In the pillar of the cloud he spoke to them; they kept his testimonies and the statute that he gave them.” (Psa 99:7).
In the New Testament’s times, the Creator testified about His Messiah, but people didn’t take this seriously:
• “And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is my Son, my Chosen One; listen to him!” (Luk 9:35).
And, in our days, manifestations of Jesus will be seen in the clouds:
• “And I saw another mighty angel coming down out of the heaven, clothed with a cloud. And a rainbow was on his head, and his face was as the sun, and his feet like pillars of fire.” (Rev 10:1).
• “And then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.” (Luk 21:27).
• “But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel: "And it shall be in the last days, says God, I will pour out of My Spirit upon all flesh. And your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams. And in those days I will pour out My Spirit upon My slaves and My slave women, and they shall prophesy. And I will give wonders in the heaven above, and miracles on the earth below, blood and fire and vapor of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness and the moon into blood, before that great and glorious Day of the Lord. And it shall be that everyone who shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." (Act 2:16-21).
So, have a cloudy day in Christ Jesus. Don’t think that this is bad. Only people of the world consider rainy days as bad weather. For whom belongs to Jesus never there is bad weather. Every time is time to rejoice in Jesus and be a blessing. Depend on being savant and have good eyes to see every occasion as an opportunity to increase in faith, glory and grace.
