His Wrath Will Be Poured Out
“Ezekiel 7; Hebrews 9:27”
"My eye will not spare you, nor will I have pity; but I will repay your ways in the midst of you, and your abominations shall be in your midst; and you shall know that I am the LORD." (Ezekiel 7:4)
The following true story was shared by a servant of God who knew all the circumstances.
There was a young woman raised in a devout Christian family, but she chose a path completely opposite, preferring a worldly path full of sinful glamor.
Her very spiritual mother advised her repeatedly and tried to guide her back, but it seemed futile; in fact, she lived even further from God.
One day she fell seriously ill. All treatments seemed to have no results. Hope for recovery was gone. Again, her family tried to bring her to the path of repentance, but again her heart remained hard.
One night, she suddenly awoke from her sleep. In fear, she cried out to her mother, "Mom, what is in Ezekiel chapter 7, verses 8 and 9?"
"What's wrong, dear?" her mother said.
The young woman replied that she had a bad dream. It was as if someone in the room was saying to her, "Read Ezekiel 7 verses 8 and 9."
Her mother quickly took the Bible and read, "Now I will swiftly pour out My fury on you, and spend My anger on you; I will judge you according to your ways, and I will repay you for all your abominations. My eye will not spare, nor will I have pity; I will repay you according to your ways, and your abominations will be in your midst. Then you shall know that I am the LORD who strikes."
With a fearful expression, the young woman buried her face in her pillow. In her exhaustion and weariness, she realized that soon she would be in eternity, whether heaven or hell!
Reflection: Every human will face eternity, either in heaven or hell. Soon the Lord will pour out His wrath on disobedient humanity. I hope we all escape God's wrath.
Judgment will surely come; woe to those who never repent of their sins.
