“Every one of them has turned aside; together they have become corrupt; there is no one who does good, not even one. Have the workers of wickedness no knowledge, who eat up My people as though they ate bread and have not called upon God?” (Psalm 53:3-4)
The corruption in this world has affected everyone. There are none who are exempt. The wicked of the world follow after their hearts which are corrupt to pursue what is right in their minds. Be guided not by the ways of this world, but by the truth of the God who created the world. Seek not for yourself, but the greater things from the One who made all things. Do not be consumed, but resume the path to which you have been called by the One who knows all things.
Lord, this world is crazy. In the guise of something new, the same things happen over and over. Each generation desires what it wants, not knowing what it really wants. Let alone what it needs. Help me, I pray to see through the cloud of confusion the truth that You alone are God and that there is no other. Help me through Your Holy Spirit to come into the eternal truth of Your presence and purpose.
Lord Jesus, You are the One who has come that as many as turn to You would not be consumed, but through You restored to liberty and life. Lead me now and always to walk in the ways I should go and not depart from them. Help me see more clearly each day that I might walk on the narrow path You have set before me. Through Your grace, enable me to be one who overcomes the adversity of this age. Amen.
