No Surprise

 


Israel was suddenly attacked last Saturday with thousands of rockets from the Gaza strip.  Simultaneously, Hamas broke through barriers slaughtering hundreds of Israelis and taking many others hostage.  “Where was God?” some would ask.  The late Adrian Rogers said, “Has It ever occurred to you that nothing ever occurred to God?”  God was right where He has always been.  An angel didn’t rush into God’s throne room with the breaking news of the attack on Israel (like an aid did with President Biden).  None of this caught God off guard!  God is using the events unfolding before us to bring Israel back to Himself, to set the world stage for His glorious return, and to wake up His lethargic followers.  The dear Lord must remind us periodically that He is still in control!  God said in Psalms 46:10, “Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.”
