Righteous Indignation!!
insanezenmistress:
I will second that prayer, Sono fone, (thats how i read your name anyway) If you FEEL like it , you already are, on some deeper level. You should not be afraid to have feelings...be afraid to mis use them. Read Jeremiah. here are some verses.
2:13 For my people have commited two evils They have forsaken ME, The fountian of living waters, To hew themselves cisterns, broken cisterns That can hold no water.
2:19 Your own wickedness will correct you, And your apostisies will reproove you; Know therefore and see that it is evil and Bitter, For you to forsake the Lord God of Hosts.
7:8-11 Behold. you are trusting in deceptive words to no avail. Will you steal, murder, and commit adultary, and swear falsely, and offer sacrifices to Baal, and walk after other gods that you have NOT KNOWN!
And THEN come and stand before Me in THIS house, which is calle dby my name, and say.... 'we are delivered' that you may do all thess abominations?
Has this house, which is calle dby My Name, become a den of robbers in your sight?
Behold, I , even I , have seen it, declares the Lord.
7:21-24 Thus says the Lord of Hosts, the God of Israel. "Add to your burnt offerings, to your sarcrificesand, eat fleash! For I did not speak to your fathers, or command them in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, concerning burnt offerings and sacrifices.
But THIS IS WHAT I commanded them, saying .
OBEY MY VOICE.... and I will be your God and you shall bemy people; and you will walk in all the way which I command you to walk.
YET, they would not obey or incline their ear, but walked after their own counsel ( theology) and in teh stubborness of their evil heart and went backward an dnot forward.
7:5b,6a Turned away in continaul apostacy, they hold fast to deciet, they refuse to return. I have listened, I have heard,
They have not spoken the truth.
ALot could be said to bring out the seriousness of Our lord's desire that we HEAR HIS VOICE.....through out scripture the Lord stresses his desire that we live within himself, and should hear and incline our ear to his voice. We should be well trained in the knowledge of God, personally, or what we have is a paper baised theological rendering of what we think god is like and what rules he might have for us to understand him.
That was a side bar, Sonofone, to segway into this, HIs spirit and voice in within you and clearly, your sentiments echo Our Lord's take on the matter you have expressed. Biblically speaking Judgement is imminant.therefore your prayer would likely be in accordance with what must be........erm..his desire.
well i guess thats all for now.
Be blessed
