The Sins of the Government have not yet reached its full measure

Genesis 15:16 In the fourth generation your descendants will come back here, for the sin of the Amorites has not yet reached its full measure

15:16 The Amorites were one of the nations living in Canaan, the land God promised Abram. God knew the people would grow more wicked and would someday need to be punished. Part of that punishment would involve taking away their land and giving it to Abram’s descendants. God in his mercy was giving the Amorites plenty of time to repent, but he already knew they would not. At the right time, they would have to be punished. Everything God does is true to his character. He is merciful, knows all, and acts justly—and his timing is perfect.

Let’s Bring it Home: Today we have a Government that is not doing right by the people, nor God and a President that continues to lead this country by creating issues every day.  We hear some say he needs to resign, some say he needs to be impeach. and others just say he needs to go.  It seems like every week or month it’s something new.  As the Amorites did not reach their full measure of doing evil, I believe President Trump has not reach his full measure, and God is giving him time to get it right and to repent of his sins or evil doings.  Keep praying for President Trump and our Government, because you can best believe the last two sentences above.  Everything God does is true to his character.  He is merciful, knows all, and acts justly, and his timing is perfect.

Under Gods Command (Book of Leviticus)

THE BLUEPRINT

  1. WORSHIPING A HOLY GOD (1:1–17:16)  
  2. Instructions for the offerings
  3. Instructions for the priests
  4. Instructions for the people
  5. Instructions for the altar

God provided specific directions for the kind of worship that would be pleasing to him. These instructions teach us about the nature of God and can help us develop a right attitude toward worship. Through the offerings we learn of the seriousness of sin and the importance of bringing our sins to God for forgiveness.

  1. LIVING A HOLY LIFE (18:1–27:34)
  2. Standards for the people
  3. Rules for priests
  4. Seasons and festivals
  5. Receiving God’s blessing

God gave clear standards to the Israelites for living a holy life. They were to be separate and distinct from the pagan nations around them. In the same way, all believers should be separated from sin and dedicated to God. God still wants to remove sin from the lives of his people.
