A Bible Devotion from Psalm 14

God is with the Generation of the Righteous



The fool has said in his heart, there is no God? . . . The Lord looks down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there are any who understand, who seek God.
Psalm 14:1-2, NKJV

We live at a time when it is considered quite rude to call someone a fool. God, however, has no such inhibitions. Those who are not true believers are fools. When you think about it more carefully you begin to understand this rather strong language from God.

Everyone who does not believe in God lives in a different world . . . a parallel universe, so to speak. What happens when a person is not a Christian? How do they view the circumstances of life around them? How do they view calamities? Life to them is a life of chance as well as a life totally bound by the decisions that people make each day.





How do Christians view life? Even though we do not know what will happen to us or what events will happen in the world, we live in the confidence that God will take care of us. Does that mean that God is responsible for bad things that happen to good people? No, God does not cause evil, but many times He does not stop the wickedness of man. We are not robots, we do make choices every day.

I must admit that I do not completely understand how that all fits together. Some things are left to understand only when we are in Heaven with God. I do know, however, that God has determined all things even before time began. God is God, and I am not. (That's a good thing to post on your refrigerator.)

Pray today that God will help you to live in the confidence and peace of knowing God is always there to protect and keep you.
