Why God Created Lucifer. Part [3] 05/02/2024 (Evening thought)

Job 42:1 Then Job answered the Lord, and said, 3 Who is he that hides counsel without knowledge? therefore have I uttered that which I understood not; things too wonderful for me, which I knew not. 5 I have heard of thee by the hearing of the ear: but now mine eye sees thee. 6 Wherefore I abhor myself, and repent in dust and ashes.

[4] When trying to understand some decisions God has made, created intelligences like ourselves must defer to His omniscient wisdom, by giving Him the benefit of the doubt. In other words, if when folks read the Bible there are things we don’t understand, we should be humble and willing enough to believe that God knows, and does what is best.

[5] Last but not least, God, in His capacity as Creator and owner of everything, reserves the royal right to do whatsoever He pleases. Some may agree, while others may disagree with Him, but the bottom line is that it is His prerogative to do what He deems to be best.

Daniel 4: 34 And at the end of the days I Nebuchadnezzar lifted up mine eyes unto heaven, and mine understanding returned unto me, and I blessed the Most-High, and I praised and honored him that lives forever, whose dominion is an everlasting dominion, and his kingdom is from generation to generation.

Daniel 4:35 And all the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing: and he doeth according to his will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth: and none can stay his hand, or say unto him, What doest thou?

May God add His blessing to the study of His word. “Good night” and God bless!

Why God Created Lucifer. Part [2] 05/01/2024 (Morning thought)

Isaiah 46: 9 Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me. 10 Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done, saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure.

[2] Nothing takes God by surprise, for He knows the end from the beginning, and because He is able to accurately read all of the fine details of the future, He is able to plan and execute His decisions with a surgical accuracy that can at times baffle the minds of created intelligences.

[3] In every decision that God makes, God carefully weighs the pros and cons, and thus, His decisions are always for the better, and greater good of the universe, and the beings He creates. In other words, even though by creating Lucifer, there would be a lot of pain, suffering, and trouble, at the end of the day, the pros will greatly outweigh the cons. Let’s read:

 Isaiah 40:27 Why say you, O Jacob, and speak, O Israel, My way is hid from the Lord, and my judgment is passed over from my God? 28 Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, faints not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding.

Jeremiah 29: 11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.

May The Lord add His blessing to the study of His word. God bless!
