MY DAILY COVENANT WITH GOD DEVOTIONAL
Devotion for Tuesday January 28, 2020
Topic: God Hates Wickedness
Text: Psalm 45:6 – 9
God
hates anything wickedness and He vexes His anger anyone who practices
wickedness. This is because He is love and expects people created in His image
to love instead of being wicked.
In
our bible reading, the Psalmist reveals what the throne of God is. He didn’t
restrain his adoration of Almighty God expressing what His Kingdom is made of.
Scepter means royal authority or staff used as royal emblem. The emblem of our
God is justice and righteousness. Because it is his nature being just and
righteous, He hates wickedness (See Psalm 5:5; 33:5).
There
are some people who love and desire to practice wickedness. They love it so
much that if they have not made trouble with people, they are will not be
happy. Wickedness comes in form of oppression, abuse of all kinds, willfully
committing sin, luring people into evil, telling lies, betrayal, etc.
Christians should not practice or tolerate wickedness.
For
this reason Psalm 97:10 admonishes us that we should hate wickedness as our God
does. People who have no love find it easier to practice wickedness (See 1 John
2:11; 3:15),
Are
you nursing any form of hatred or bitterness against someone? Repent of it now
before devil will lead you into wicked act.
Action: If
there is anyone who has offended you, make peace with the person today before
devil will lead you into wicked act.
Memory verse: Psalm 33:7
Prayer: God, make me love righteousness and hate
wickedness as you do in Jesus name.
