NO EXCUSE

David Abankwah

For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:

-Romans 1:20 | KJV

I become amused when I hear people say there is no God. No wonder Isaiah term such people as foolish. When you were coming from your mother’s womb you didn’t come with your own food. Neither did you come with your own water. You didn’t come with your car neither did you come with your job. But when you landed on this planet called earth, everything was here for you already. Whom do you think created those things? You eat God’s food, drink His water and shit on His land. You now know why you are a fool when you don’t believe in God. You are not smart when you don’t believe in God.

If you are smart, you will have good sense of judgement that, the invisible things in God is what He brought into creation. The plants, the animals, landscape, humans, angels and what have you, were all in God. You are a fool just because, you don’t seem to realise that, who you are and what you have, all belongs to God. God is not bothered when you don’t believe in Him, neither is He moved when you do, because your belief doesn’t change who He is. His Godship is independent on our beliefs. Your belief in Him is for your own good.

This is because, He has set a day that He will cast all those who didn’t believe in Him and His Son into everlasting fire, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. For now, you can have your heaven on earth as most people say, but one day, your soul will get out of your body and will never return. Then you will realise how foolish you have become for not believing in God and His Son. You have no excuse or whatever because God is made manifest in things around us. Every creature you see around, is pointing to God but humans are blind to see or take notice.

Birds don’t chirp every morning to awaken us, but to tell us each new day that, we should not forget there is someone called God. Today, when a believer goes through serial hardships, they ask God why? They even go on to question the existence of God. ‘God if you really exist, why is that I am suffering like this?’ God is probably sleeping. Such nonsense! Many believers insult God all the time. When God gives them good things, they forget to thank Him. When bad things happen to them, they blame Him. This is because, you lack faith and if you lack faith, you sin. Learn to believe in God in good and bad times.
