Ecclesiastes 3:14; I know that whatever God does, It shall be forever. Nothing can be added to it, And nothing taken from it. God does it, that men should fear before Him.
Whatever God does is forever nothing can be added to it and nothing can be taken from it, this attribute is seen in the salvation work that God has done in us, nothing can be added to it nor can anything be taken from it, our salvation in Christ is forever.
And God does this that men should fear before Him, does this mean God does this so we are afraid of Him? No, the word fear here refers to be in awe and show reverence. When a man sees how the creator of the universe would come in human form and die naked on a tree so man could have eternal life, they would be in awe.
God doesn’t show His power and wisdom like man does, Man loves to show power through bullying and their wisdom through trickery but God shows His power and His wisdom through love. Like Charlie Chaplin would succinctly put it “You need power only to do something harmful; otherwise love is enough to do everything.”
It’s a brand new day! Keep enjoying Kharis!
