Day 2: God’s Wrath
Read:
- Exodus 32:11
- Romans 1:22-29
- Ephesians 5:6
- Colossians 3:5-6
God’s wrath is a hard concept to grasp. It’s not an outburst of anger but His holy, just, and righteous response to sin. Romans 1:18 tells us that God’s wrath is revealed from heaven against all godlessness and unrighteousness—against those who suppress the truth.
Think of suppressing like trying to hold a beach ball underwater. The ball naturally resists and wants to rise back up. In the same way, the truth about God’s righteousness is evident, but humanity often pushes it down, refusing to acknowledge Him.
God’s wrath isn’t arbitrary; it’s His perfect justice in action. Sin cannot coexist with His holiness, and His wrath ensures that justice is served. Take this as a reminder to reflect on areas of your life where you might be “suppressing” God’s truth, and invite Him to reveal His righteousness to you.
