Verse: Psalm 2
The main problem we are often not not understand God's will, but do not want to obey. It is these human problems since the first man fell into sin. Is not the devil through the serpent offers an alternative view on the word of God, which raised doubts in people's hearts first, and the question of whether God berikhtikad nice for them?
Psalm 2 speaks about the attitude of the nations who do not want to obey God's determination. They refused to recognize the ordinances of the Lord upon Israel as the chosen people and David and his descendants will be on the throne of Israel for generations. Refusing to acknowledge God's chosen means doubting ikhtikad good Lord that He cares about the nations and Israel and the king wants to use them to bless the nations of the world. Yet this is God's plan when choosing Israel and commit himself unto them in the Sinai Covenant. See Exodus 19:5-6. Israel bound by treaty to function as a kingdom of priests and holy nation. Kingdom of priests means royal mediator for other kingdoms to know the God of Israel. As a holy nation, Israel has become a model nation alive who knows the Lord. Refusing to acknowledge God's choice is to reject God's sovereignty. Penalize even God. These nations would have subjected him through his servant, who has He is anointed King!
Are there similarities between ourselves with Israel? Is there a difficult thing we submit to God fully as he entered in 2011 is because we doubt God ikhtikad good to us? Remember, Jesus we just celebrate his arrival in this world, is the King that God set upon all nations in this world. If we refuse to submit to his authority, one day he will come and with His power He will judge us without mercy!
God Bless ^^
