TOPIC: A WORLD OF UNPUNISHED SIN
Text: Gen.4.23 -24
And Lamech said unto his wives, Adah and Zillah, Hear my voice; ye wives of Lamech, hearken unto my speech: for I have slain a man to my wounding, and a young man to my hurt.
.24 – If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold, truly Lamech seventy and sevenfold.
I read this scripture and my first response was disappointment toward God’s judgment. Why didn’t you kill Cain or punish him accordingly instead you put a mark upon him that no one will touch him, thereby protecting him. I really got very angry because I think of the wickedness of the wicked and they only get more wicked because there wickedness is going unpunished. I couldn’t sleep again because I was really angry in my spirit neither could I pray.
Imagine the confidence of a murderer that even after he has killed a man who hurt him; so if his father was given immunity as a murderer his own should be doubled. God said anyone who touches his father vengeance shall be taken upon him seven times, for him it shall be seventy times seven.
The Lord allowed me all night to stay pissed that I refuse to pray. And this morning asked me. Why cleans a world messed up with sin from sin, when I have created for you a world without sin? I remember the writing of Asaph in Psalms 73:3,17 He said I was envious of the wicked, until i came into the presence of the Lord and understood their end.
The Lord brought me into his presence and I saw in a revelation how the wicked will be raided and their wickedness not go unpunished. And finally he said to me son concern yourself with making and reaching that sinless world and give no thought about the wickedness of the wicked.
I love you.
