Destructive Disregard


“Because they regard not the works of the LORD, nor the operation of His hands, He shall destroy them, and not build them up” (Psalm 28:5).  “Boast not thyself of tomorrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth” (Proverbs 27:1).  “The truth which is after godliness, in hope of eternal life… God, that cannot lie, promised before the world began, but hath in due times manifested His Word through preaching… according to the commandment of God our Savior” (Titus 1:1-3). 

The souls refusing to regard
The operation of God’s hands,
Shall find the consequences hard
When mercy flees and judgment stands. 

As they are boasting of tomorrow,
They do not turn to seek God’s face. 
How tragic is the endless sorrow
Of those who perish without grace! 

The Lord, who cannot lie, has spoken
And made His great salvation known.   
His promise never shall be broken
To those who trust in Him alone. 

According to our God and Savior
Who calls each sinner to repent,
The time is NOW to seek His favor,
Before TODAY is further spent. 

O Lord, we love Your precious Word,
Though many hate Your truth today.
They mock the Gospel they have heard
By disregarding what You say. 

O Lord, they have despised Your love
And scorned Your ransom on the cross,
Though You descended from above
To rescue souls from endless loss! 

Destructive disregard, O Lord,
Deprives the soul of Your salvation! 
We pray for souls who have ignored
The consequence of condemnation.
