TOPIC: THERE IS GOD: HE SEES
TEXT: PSALM 14:1-5
1 (To the chief Musician, A Psalm of David.) The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.
3 They are all gone aside, they are all together become filthy: there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
4 Have all the workers of iniquity no knowledge? who eat up my people as they eat bread, and call not upon the LORD.
5 There were they in great fear: for God is in the generation of the righteous.
MEMORY VERSE: “The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good” (PSALM 14:1).
MESSAGE:
Stephen Hawkins was a celebrated English theoretical physicist, cosmologist and author. He was best known for many of his seminal works in quantum physics, including the discovery of the “black hole.” He wrote many books and scientific papers.
His last book, published after his death in March 2018, was entitled: Brief Answers To Big Questions. In the book, he stated that “We are each free to believe what we want, and it’s my view that the simplest explanation is that there is no God. No one created the universe, and no one directs our fate.” What a sad way to end a life!
What Stephen Hawkins said with his mouth (in his book), many sinners are saying with their lives. To live in sin and wickedness is to deny the existence of God. To live and behave as if God does not observe human behavior, and that actions have no consequences, is indeed foolishness.
Make no mistake about it – there is God in heaven. He sees everything and He will bring every action to judgment. Repent today, and come to Christ for salvation.
QUOTE: Come to Christ for salvation.
CHALLENGE: Actions have consequences.
PRAYER: God, help me to always be conscious of Your existence.
1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
