The words of warning that Zephaniah hit pretty close to home for us today. Our nation has rejected God and chosen wickedness over righteousness. This grieves God’s heart. He doesn’t look forward to bringing destruction, but because men harbor evil in their hearts and reject Him outright, they ultimately will face the consequences. As Pastor David warns in today’s message, those consequences will be dire, but until the gates of hell are sealed, God will welcome anyone that repents and turns to Him.
