God Reveals Wrath
"For God in heaven unveils his holy anger breaking forth against every form of sin, both toward ungodliness that lives in hearts and evil actions. For the wickedness of humanity deliberately smothers the truth and keeps people from acknowledging the truth about God. In reality, the truth of God is known instinctively, for God has embedded this knowledge inside every human heart. Opposition to truth cannot be excused on the basis of ignorance, because from the creation of the world, the invisible qualities of God’s nature have been made visible, such as his eternal power and transcendence. He has made his wonderful attributes easily perceived, for seeing the visible makes us understand the invisible. So then, this leaves everyone without excuse." - Romans 1:18-32, The Passion Translation
When we 1) recognize God as God, 2) honor Him as our God (personally), and 3) are thankful for His presence and His favor in our lives, we activate and we unleash the full force of Heaven’s Realm -- the Kingdom Realm of our God -- into our lives to confirm and to perform His Word in our lives. This reality is implanted in our spirit and our mind by our Creator and our Designer, the living God. When we reject and when we entice and prevent others from accepting our God and His Realm, the wrath of God is our promise and our reward. It not a small thing to deny and to reject the living God. He is all powerful and all loving at the same time. The dynamic of our rejecting Him and His rule, His Kingdom, has a distinct interactive outcome that we cannot deny. We know and we cannot claim we do not know.
This is what our God says about our claiming not to know:
"Don’t excuse yourself by saying, 'Look, we didn’t know.' For God understands all hearts, and he sees you. He who guards your soul knows you knew. He will repay all people as their actions deserve." -Proverbs 24:12, New Living Translation
"For if we continue to persist in deliberate sin after we have known and received the truth, there is not another sacrifice for sin to be made for us. But this would qualify one for the certain, terrifying expectation of judgment and the raging fire ready to burn up his enemies! Anyone who disobeyed Moses’ law died without mercy on the simple evidence of two or three witnesses. How much more severely do you suppose a person deserves to be judged who has contempt for God’s Son, and who scorns the blood of the new covenant that made him holy, and has outraged the Spirit of grace? For we know him who said, 'I have the right to take revenge and pay them back for their evil!' And also, 'The Lord God will judge his own people!' It is the most terrifying thing of all to come under the judgment of the Living God!" -Hebrews 10:26-31, TPT
