Christian Devotional – April 13, 2013

VERSE:

2 Peter 2:9–if this is so, then the Lord knows how to rescue the Godly from trials and to hold the unrighteous for punishment on the day of judgment.

TRUTH:

Sometimes, as we look around us at the world we live in, the world seems to be out of control. It feels like believers are punished and the ungodly get away with their evil. Yet Peter shares with them that if they will look back throughout history, they will see how God has protected those who believe in Him and He has judged the evil ones. We can trust that He is over all things even in our time and He will set all things right at the proper time. Evil will be judged and righteousness will be rewarded. We can trust in that.

RESPONSE:

Father, I praise You and I will trust that You know what is best. You see the righteous and evil people and You know all of our deeds. You are faithful and I will trust You to put everything right in Your time.
