Our God is patient, slow to anger, and abounding in love. However, the Lord is also just and promises to repay His enemies for the wrong that they do. In Daniel chapter 5, Daniel pronounced judgment on Babylon because of its pride and because it did not heed the wisdom of the Lord when it was given. Pastor Ed points out that when we remember that God has judged in the past and that He does indeed examine the thoughts and motives of men’s hearts, it helps us to walk righteously and humbly before the Lord.
