TODAY’S TOPIC ON DCLM DAILY MANNA 10TH FEBRUARY 2021: VANITY OF BOASTING
BIBLE TEXT: LAMENTATIONS 2:1-10
Key Verse: “How hath the Lord covered the daughter of Zion with a cloud in his anger, and cast down from heaven unto the earth the beauty of Israel, and remembered not his footstool in the day of his anger!” (Lamentations 2:1).
Today’s Word On Daily Manna Devotional Message for 10th February 2021
The French philosopher, Voltaire was quoted as saying that “A hundred years from my death and the Bible will be a museum place”. It was reported that a hundred years after his death, the French Bible Society set up its headquarters in Voltaire’s old home in Paris. God worked against Jacob (Israel) and Judah in the time of their apostasy. He also poured out judgment upon the people because they had rebelled against His will. The beauty of Israel was always unmatched because the glory of God radiated in it.
The daughters of Zion were a special breed, beauty personified and cynosure of all eyes. But when sin was found in Israel, all that made her attractive died. The beauty faded off. This is what happens when God withdraws His presence and favour. Some people are like Voltaire. They brag about their huge success in their fields of endeavour, careers, families, etc. and attribute none of such to God’s special favour. Instead, they turn such blessings into instruments of disrespect for God.
In the twinkling of an eye, all they boast of is gone. To ensure our ‘beauty’ (whether they are career progress, family, financial or academic successes) remains, we must always hold in optimum reverence the Source – the almighty God. Those who may have erred wilfully or in ignorance can seek His mercy today. Take a moment and pause; reflect on how the enemy has entered and then turn to the Lord. Return to the true Source of beauty and regain your radiating power from the Almighty.
Thought for Today: Beauty is vain without God’s glory.
Bible in one Year: Matthew 27 – 28
