The Scripture & the Sense Podcast #439: Amos 4:2-3 by Daniel Whyte III

Proverbs 24:19-20

In our last message, we looked at the first two verses of this chapter. So this is the second time that we are warned against being envious of the wicked in this passage. We are first told not to fret over what they are doing and what they have. Rather than paying so much attention to what expensive cars the immoral have in their driveway or what kind of expensive clothes they are wearing, we need to focus on what God wants us to do with our lives. Matthew Henry said, “He repeats the caution he had before given against envying the pleasures and successes of wicked man in their wicked ways. We must not in any case fret ourselves, or make ourselves uneasy, whatever God does in his providence how disagreeable soever it is to our sentiments, interests, and expectations, we must acquiesce in it. Even that which grieves us must not fret us; nor must our eye be evil against any because God is good. Are we more wise or just than he? If wicked people prosper, we must not therefore incline to do as they do. He gives a reason for this caution, taken from the end of that way which wicked man walk in. Envy not their prosperity; for, There is no true happiness in it: Thee shall be no reward to the evil man; his prosperity only serves for his present subsistence; these are all the good things he must ever expect: there is none intended him in the world of retribution. He has his reward. He shall have none. Those are not to be envied that have their portion in this life and must out-live it. There is no continuance in it; their candle shines brightly, but it shall presently be put out, and a final period put to all their comforts.” We can reject the temptation to join them in their evil deeds because they do not have eternal life. They do not have an eternal reward waiting for them in heaven like we do. After death, they can only look forward to sorrow, pain, and misery, while we have a better life after death.
