Public education also seems to enforce and encourage their charges to grasp their godless theories and thinking. A media that was once expected to expose the truth and help preserve law-abiding has also accepted and joined to move society against godly behavior and force their philosophies on the public. Too often, it seems there is little order and only destruction on society\u2019s horizon. Hope for a promising future appears to be disappearing daily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stop right there!&nbsp;Be not deceived.&nbsp;As the beginning words of a hymn remind us, \u201cThe Lord reigneth.\u201d&nbsp;Most of us do not understand why such changes in society are allowed, but we can be assured God is still in control.&nbsp;He knows exactly what is going on.&nbsp;He knows who is lying.&nbsp;He knows who is deceiving.&nbsp;Our God knows all about the greed that motivates so many.&nbsp;None of what is going on is a surprise to Him.<br><em>\u201cThe LORD reigneth, he is clothed with majesty; the LORD is clothed with strength, wherewith he hath girded himself: the world also is stablished, that it cannot be moved.\u201d Psalm 93:1&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>God uses many of the horrific actions and attitudes we see for society\u2019s eventual betterment and to accomplish what he has planned to happen from the beginning.&nbsp;From the Genesis flood to what will happen in the future (Revelation 19:6), God has and will use those events, as wicked as they often seem, for His purpose. God reigneth despite what our leaders, media, and other influences believe!&nbsp;Nothing happens without Him allowing it for His purposes.<br><em>\u201cAnd we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.\u201d Romans 8:28&nbsp;Also: II Tim. 1:9.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Today\u2019s Thought:&nbsp;<\/strong><br>\u201cHe who counts the stars and calls them by their names is in no danger of forgetting his own children.\u201d \u2014 Charles Spurgeon<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Today\u2019s Reading:<\/strong><br><em>Psalm 93<br>1&nbsp;The LORD reigneth, he is clothed with majesty; the LORD is clothed with strength, wherewith he hath girded himself: the world also is stablished, that it cannot be moved.<br>2 Thy throne is established of old: thou art from everlasting.<br>3 The floods have lifted up, O LORD, the floods have lifted up their voice; the floods lift up their waves.<br>4 The LORD on high is mightier than the noise of many waters, yea, than the mighty waves of the sea.<br>5 Thy testimonies are very sure: holiness becometh thine house, O LORD, for ever.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Daily Nugget:When reading about current events, seeing how society is morally declining and hearing of one tragedy after another can&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":847,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rop_custom_images_group":[],"rop_custom_messages_group":[],"rop_publish_now":"initial","rop_publish_now_accounts":{"facebook_374886073925309_111414703907598":"","twitter_429426831_429426831":""},"rop_publish_now_history":[],"rop_publish_now_status":"pending","footnotes":""},"categories":[72],"tags":[6],"class_list":["post-1032","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-psalm","tag-sin","wpcat-72-id"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.devotionsfromthebible.com\/dvblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1032","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.devotionsfromthebible.com\/dvblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.devotionsfromthebible.com\/dvblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.devotionsfromthebible.com\/dvblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.devotionsfromthebible.com\/dvblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1032"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"http:\/\/www.devotionsfromthebible.com\/dvblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1032\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8427,"href":"http:\/\/www.devotionsfromthebible.com\/dvblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1032\/revisions\/8427"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.devotionsfromthebible.com\/dvblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/847"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.devotionsfromthebible.com\/dvblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1032"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.devotionsfromthebible.com\/dvblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1032"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.devotionsfromthebible.com\/dvblog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1032"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
