NO ONE IS OUTSIDE THE REACH OF *GOD*!!!

In every generation, all the day long, there are those who aspire to bring bad things upon others, even upon many...

Whether they know it, or not; whether they believe it, or not, what they conspire, WILL come back upon their own heads! Yah, whatever one reaps, they WILL sow! It might not be apparent instantly, and it may come quite a bit later, but nations, and individuals whom sow evil, reap it; and that in the flesh, and ever after...

All through history, people have wondered why bad people seem to get away with their plots, but TRUTH IS, they don't, they won't...

*GOD* allows time for ALL to repent, to change their ways, and to TURN TO HIM; HE IS THE SAVIOUR of sinners, after all! Those who won't, or don't, every wrong they do, WILL come back to haunt them in ways we can only imagine. Awful, and terrible consequences ARE coming their way; THE LORD'S WRATH IS MIGHTY, and SURE; HE has left NOTHING to chance, thus, EVERY human IS given time, and IS judged BY THE JUDGE, accordingly...

While we suffer because of such people, let us be glad that we HAVE SEEN THE TRUTH, and that we ARE IN THE GRACE OF *GOD*, and let us PRAY, PRAY, PRAY, for ALL! We CAN REJOICE, for we KNOW THE LORD *GOD* vindicates, SAVES, protects, and leads those who LOVE HIM, look TO HIM, and abide BY HIS WILL! Let us PRAISE, and WORSHIP, thankful that we HAVE chosen to FOLLOW HIM, because regardless of everything the world, and the worldly hurls at us, we SHALL EVER revel IN HIS LOVE, PEACE, and GLORY!!!

PSALM 9: 15-18...
15+++The nations have fallen into the pit they have dug;
their feet are caught in the net they have hidden.
16+++The Lord is known by his acts of justice;
the wicked are ensnared by the work of their hands.
17+++The wicked go down to the realm of the dead,
all the nations that forget God.
18+++But God will never forget the needy;
the hope of the afflicted will never perish.

The overruling providence of God frequently so orders it, that persecutors and oppressors are brought to ruin by the projects they formed to destroy the people of God. Drunkards kill themselves; prodigals beggar themselves; the contentious bring mischief upon themselves: thus men's sins may be read in their punishment, and it becomes plain to all, that the destruction of sinners is of themselves. All wickedness came originally with the wicked one from hell; and those who continue in sin, must go to that place of torment. 

The true state, both of nations and of individuals, may be correctly estimated by this one rule, whether in their doings they remember or forget God. David encourages the people of God to wait for his salvation, though it should be long deferred.  Strange that man, dust in him and about him, should yet need some sharp affliction, some severe visitation from God, to bring him to the knowledge of himself, and make him feel who and what he is.

PSALM 7: 15-16...
15+++He has dug a pit and hollowed it out,
And has fallen into the hole which he made.
16+++His mischief will return upon his own head,
And his violence will descend upon his own pate.

The destruction of sinners may be prevented by their conversion; for it is threatened, If he turn not from his evil way, let him expect it will be his ruin. But amidst the threatenings of wrath, we have a gracious offer of mercy. God gives sinners warning of their danger, and space to repent, and prevent it. He is slow to punish, and long-suffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish. The sinner is described, ver. 14-16, as taking more pains to ruin his soul than, if directed aright, would save it. This is true, in a sense, of all sinners. 

Let us look to the Saviour under all our trials. Blessed Lord, give us grace to look to thee in the path of tribulation, going before thy church and people, and marking the way by thine own spotless example. Under all the persecutions which in our lesser trials mark our way, let the looking to Jesus animate our minds and comfort our hearts.
