Episode 118: The Family Altar Audio Devotional – Day 84

Episode Summary:

And he saw that there was no man, and wondered that there was no intercessor: therefore his arm brought salvation unto him; and his righteousness, it sustained him. For he put on righteousness as a breastplate, and an helmet of salvation upon his head; and he put on the garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloke. According to their deeds, accordingly he will repay, fury to his adversaries, recompence to his enemies; to the islands he will repay recompence. So shall they fear the name of the Lord from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him. (Isaiah 59:16-19)

70 But in the face of all these un-…doubting ages and things that we have went through and live in today, the worst of all, in the face of all this doubt, God does go right on proving His Words to be right, as He has in every age. He…Unbelief doesn’t stop God, it doesn’t hinder Him. I don’t care how much the world unbelieves, It’s still going to happen. Unbelief doesn’t do nothing but condemns the unbeliever. The unbelief will send the unbeliever to Hell. It’ll rob him of every blessing God promised to him, but it doesn’t hinder God from going right on with the believer. See, unbelief doesn’t stop God, it only stops the unbeliever.

71 You say, “I…The sun ain’t going to shine tomorrow, I’m going to stop it.” You try it. See? All right, you can’t do it. God has set it in order and said it would shine, and it’s going to shine, that’s all, He said it would. Might be some clouds under it, but it’s still shining just the same. And you can’t stop God with that. He, what…

72 How does He make His Word known to the people? First, God knowing that there would be unbelievers…Now watch the wisdom of God; knowing there would be unbelievers, and how the majority would be unbelievers. He, by foreknowledge, predestinated a seed for every age, that would believe It. Now if you’ll notice in there, for, each age goes right on with His Word, everything right on time, nothing hinders God. He goes right on, and every click is moving just exactly right. We think, sometimes, it’s not going to work right. But don’t you worry, His clock is timed just exactly to the split instant, and everything’s working just exactly right.

73 When I look around sometime and see these Rickys and Rickettas that we got today, and on the streets, and how everything’s going on, I think, “O God!”

74 “Wait a minute,” He says, see, “My timepiece is turning just exactly right. I’ve got to put you upon the same basis I did the first man, them days. And I put you on the same basis of Luther, and on the same basis of Wesley.” Because, you see, sin wasn’t known then like it is now. And when we got more knowledge now than we had then, and when the enemy comes in like a flood, the Spirit of God raises a standard against it. See? And now today, we’ve got more knowledge, more understanding, so the rivers of unbelief is flowing in hard, but God raises a standard against it. But, remember, He’s always…The reason that He—He predestinated these things to happen. He foretold them by His prophets they would happen. And when the righteous see these things confirmed, then they know It’s right. Regardless of what anyone else says, they know It’s right.
