Ingratitude: A Menace To Divine Providence
Psalm 107:8 Oh that men would praise the LORD for his goodness, and for his wonderful works to the children of men!
This verse is repeated four times in one single chapter. This actually captions the ingratitude of the children of Isreal and everyone in particular.
God provided for the needs of the children of Isreal but they would never appreciate Him for all these. Rather, they all murmur and complain for every inconvenience they experienced. This is absolutely ridiculous and profaning. God would lots of miracles to save their lives from hunger, thirst, dearth and death, yet they would resort to murmurings. They never said God for anything they need, despite the fact that God gave them open cheque. Complaints wouldn't solve anything, God told their leaders like that. But instead for them to listen and amend their bad ways and ingratitude, they would rather stone their leaders. Are you like that today? Do you murmur and complain at everything? Doyou even have faith in God? What are you asking God for that He hasn't done for you? Do you asked in the right way or amiss? Don't complain again, it took Daniel 21days for his answer to come despite his prayers have been answered the first day. Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego have more reasons to complain and murmur for their captivities in Babylon and yet the more when they were about to be thrown into the seven-times heated furnace but instead, they put that total trust in God. Hannah would also had complained of barrenness and much more when Eli accused her of been drunken. That would have made her totally barren like the daughter of Saul married to David. Rather, she poured out her heart to God and answered the man of God politely and that opened the door of remembrance to her. The bible says in the book of Proverbs, soft answer turns away wrath... Many examples abound. You don't need to complain or worry about any bad situation. Pour out your heart to God andbHe will answer your prayers shortly.
