Living in the presence of an angry God!

“Who knows the power of Your anger? For as the fear of You, so is Your wrath.” Psalm 90:11

No one wants to hear about an angry God!

We all want to hear about the love, mercy and compassion of Jesus. How do you reconcile the gentle nature of Jesus with the reality of God’s anger?

Moses spent more time with God than any other human being. He understood the personality of God and His emotions. 

You and I cannot grasp the power of the anger of God. At one time, God was so angry He destroyed all humanity except for eight souls. 

God spoke to the Israelites after the exodus from Egypt and told them to stone to death anyone who entices you to follow false Gods. This admonition included your close family members. 

This is just an example of the retribution of God. This thread can be seen throughout the history of God. The point is God never changes and He hates those who worship false gods.

We have to fear God for who He is and respect the power of His anger. He can make your life miserable or strike you dead in a split second. 

How do you deal with an angry God?

The counsel is very simple. Commit each day to God and pray for a heart of wisdom. Seek God out with prayer and praise Him for His greatness and glory.

Ask Jesus to cover you with His blood and open your heart up to the conviction of the Holy Spirit.

Remember, there is no one not one who can come close to the standards of God. 

Jesus doesn’t care about religion. He is looking for loyalty and obedience to His voice.
