TRANSGRESSION

Transgression- the 1828 dictionary descibes it as one who commits a fault, offense, or crime. Psalm 36 says Transgression (like an oracle)speaks to the wicked deep in his heart. There is no fear or dread of God before his eyes. dread - awful and terrible. For he flatters and deceives himself in his own eyes that his iniquity will not be found out and be hated. The words of his mouth are wrong and deceitful; he has ceased to be wise and to do good. deceives- to cause to beleive what is false. Matthew says take heed that no man deceive you. Do not be mocked whatsoever a man sows that shall he reap. So how and why does the enemy get away with deceit especially where it concerns God's people. We have his word and he tells us very clear...woe to him who calls evil good and good evil... How do we get decieved....how does this happen... How do we tell ourselves that gross sin will go unpunished, that my sin will not affect others? That somehow the laws of order God has set up do not apply to us. That if we sin, we will not be found out. That it will not lead to the destruction of other innocent people or that it will not bring death to our lives. Death to our relationships. Death to those who trust us to do what is right. There is a way that SEEMS right to a man , but the end thereof is death. How can we be so deceived .... I have heard it said that in the quietness , when no one is watching, when you feel like no one would ever find out, or see what you are doing......that is what character really looks like. Even if no one would ever find out , A FOOL says in his heart there is no God....No GOD.....We think we know better than Him....that his word and his judgement are meant for others. Verse 4 it says he sets himself in a way that is not good; he does not reject or despise evil....there is a purpose he sets himself, a choice....they refuse to see evil for what it is.
But, Your mercy and loving-kindness, O Lord, extend to the skies, and Your faithfulness to the clouds. Your righteousness is like the mountains of God...... God is faithful even when we are not He will bring justice to pass..wait patiently for Him , no need to strike back against the evil that comes to steal , kill, and destroy us when we are beleivers in His Word.. He will bring about THE TRUTH eventually. He is EL ROI ...the God who sees. Thank you Jesus, in a day where evil is aggessive and seeking us, that You see everything and You are a Just God...
