As we awake each day to a new  sunrise introducing us to a new day, we are reminded of God's grace and His love for His creation.

He has made redemption for fallen mankind by the blood of the Lamb.

Our responsibility is to share this good news of redemption to everyone so all God's children can live in peace, love and joy knowing that their sins are forgiven.

We are not to condemn nor constantly categorize man's sins, as to which sin is more severe than the other. "ALL UNRIGHTEOUSNESS IS SIN" 1John 5:17.

I believe what grieves the heart of God the most, is VIOLENCE.

From the very first murder written in scripture of a brother murdering his brother; Genesis 4., God intervene in that violent act immediately.

Two chapters after in Genesis 6, God destroyed all flesh due to the rampant violence that was spreading on the earth.

Exodus 20:13, the sixth commandment says," Thou shall not murder".

Psalm 11:5, The LORD examines the righteous, but the wicked, those who love VIOLENCE he hates with a passion.

Jesus taught to love one another and to do good to each other.

The parable of the Good Samaritan was one of His most important lessons.

Luke 10:25-37.

Jesus Himself, being arrested by a group of violent soldiers, ordered his disciple to put up his sword and do not respond with violence.

He suffered and died a violent death by the hands of violent people so that violence shall be abolished from the earth through repentance and forgiveness.

The world has not embraced God's redemptive plan, but continue to advocate violence from the highest offices of leadership and governments.

There is an increase of violence around the world, also violent acts are posted on social media daily.

Matthew 24:37. "AS IT WAS IN THE DAYS OF NOAH."

The sign of Noah is upon us now, and the increase of violence is the sign of God's time clock for intervention and judgement.

VIOLENT ACTS ARE NOT ENTERTAINMENT, VIOLENT ACTS GRIEVES THE HEART OF GOD.
