I WILL NOT ASK

Isaiah 7:12 (NKJV) 12 But Ahaz said, "I will not ask, nor will I test the LORD!"
   Today men have no connection with the God of creation, because of knowledge, the bible says, "Knowledge puffs up." What does that mean, I am so glad you asked?
   We live in a day when our education, the way we observe the world is tainted by the ungodly teaching of ungodly men. They, have no connection with the God who created all things and therefore teach that there is no God.
   Recently a man needed to move his vehicle and accidently ran over his two children, both were injured one more severely than the other, the man was grief stricken and wanted to die for his mistake. His wife however quickly recognized the broken heart of her husband and the dire situation of her child and cried out to God, to help. He did, miraculously intervene, healing the child who had massive internal injuries and the husbands broken heart, the family then gave all the credit to God.
   In our verse above a king is told God will bring sure victory if you will only ask, his self centered answer based on knowledge, "I will not." How sad, most people will not ask God and therefore will never get into Heaven. This most amazing promise of God is for those who by faith will believe and accept Jesus as their Savior. Have you believed, have you trusted Him, will you do that today?
Heavenly Father, all the world is a witness of your Glorious works. We see daily your hand holding the world together through love, for your creation, thank you, for loving us still after all these years. Thank you for waiting on that last soul to trust and believe in You. May it be today, that those who need You, will look up and confess, You are God. Amen
