God observed all this corruption the world, for everyone on earth was corrupt. So God said to Noah, “I have decided to destroy all living creatures, for they have filled the earth with violence. Yes, I will wipe them all out along with the earth. -Genesis 6:12-13 (NLT)
DESTRUCTION OF CORRUPTION
A poem and essay by ILMA
The Lord created human beings for love and perfection
He made humans from his image so man can bring him exaltation
The enemy corrupted the very first man and woman
As a result, evil became rampant with all humans.
God decide to destroy this world’s corruption
He built a covenant with Noah to bring restoration
Repent and do not take part in any form of evil
Judgment will come to all those who follow the devil.

So many people get stuck with God’s punishment to man’s wickedness. A lot of believers I know think that God is a punitive person. Many people think in the Old Testament period when God literally punished man’s corrupted hearts and minds. In John 3:16, we are given a glimpse of a very loving father who gave up his only begotten son, so he could save all of our sins. He gave us a way out from the judgment that we will receive if we sin. He gave us Jesus, so that when we believe in him, we will have eternal life. God will never tolerate evil.

PRAYER
Lord, thank you for giving us your son to save us from evil.
REFLECTION
Why do you think some people view God either as punishing or loving?

Sinners will have no place among the godly. For the Lord watches over the path of the godly, but the path of the wicked leads to destruction. Psalm 1:5-6(NLT)
THE PATH TO DESTRUCTION
A poem and essay by ILMA
Are you walking towards Christ or to obliteration?
Do you know the path leading to salvation?
Sinners will have no place among the righteous
For the Lord considers them very precious.
He watches those who believe and follow him
But sinners and the wicked continue to live in sin
Being wicked leads to chaos and destruction
Will you do anything to avoid eternal damnation?

There are people who embrace a life of sin. The enemy blinded them to see what is right. It’s a sad thing to watch people destroy their own lives just for temporary pleasures that Satan entices them with. I went through this path to destruction for a good number of years and it is not a good road to be in. The wage of sin is death as the bible says. I lived a dead life; no joy, no peace. I thrived in conflict, pride, arrogance and anger. It was a life not worth living.
The bible tells us that sinners and godly people can’t thrive together. The Lord watches over the righteous but allows the wicked to be destroyed. He’ll protect his people.
PRAYER
Lord, help me to always walk on the road to your eternal life.
REFLECTION
Why isn’t it a good idea to associate with sinners if you are a believer?
