A REAL STINKER!
Joel 2:20b – Devotional
Joel 2:20b
“His stench will come up, and his foul odor will rise, because he has done monstrous things.”
When I was a boy my dad decided to dig a basement. Now when I say he was going to dig a basement, I mean that literally. He made a hole in the foundation and began digging in the dirt under the house. Before long he needed to find a better way to remove the dirt, so he installed a conveyor. What a man!
Things had gone very well until one night we heard a noise coming from the partially-dug basement. Dad carefully opened the door to see who or what it was. Unfortunately, it was a skunk that had found its way into the new hole under our house. By the time the culprit was removed the stench was eye-watering.
We find ourselves in the same sort of predicament in our modern world. There has been so much putrid sin that it raises a stench that reaches to heaven.
Sadly, some modern day churches have ignored the Word of God and allowed the “skunk” of perversity to enter. Listen — if God says it is sin, it is sin. Stay away from it!
May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
