From Spurgeon's "Faith's Check Book"094-Sensitive to Warning |
"Because thine heart was tender, and thou hast humbled thyself before the Lord, when thou
heardest what I spake against this place, and against the inhabitants thereof, that they should
become a desolation and a curse, and hast rent thy clothes, and wept before me; I also have
heard thee, saith the Lord." (2 Kings 22:19) Many despise warning and perish. Happy is he who trembles at the Word of God. Josiah did so,
and he was spared the sight of the evil which the Lord determined to send upon Judah because of
her great sins. Have you this tenderness? Do you practice this self-humiliation? Then you also
shall be spared in the evil day. God sets a mark upon the men that sigh and cry because of the
sin of the times. The destroying angel is commanded to keep his sword in its sheath till the elect of God are
sheltered: these are best known by their godly fear and their trembling at the Word of the Lord.
Are the times threatening? Does infidelity advance with great strides, and do you dread national
chastisement upon this polluted nation? Well you may. Yet rest in this promise: "Thou shalt be
gathered into thy grave in peace: and thine eyes shall not see all the evil which l will bring
upon this place." Better still, the Lord Himself may come, and then the days of our mourning
shall be ended.
