BIBLE TEXT: Psalms 90:7-9, Romans 8:20-22 (KJV)

Psalms 90:7-9:
7 For we are consumed by thine anger, and by thy wrath are we troubled.

8 Thou hast set our iniquities before thee, our secret sins in the light of thy countenance.

9 For all our days are passed away in thy wrath: we spend our years as a tale that is told.

Romans 8:20-22:
20 For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope,

21 Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.

22 For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.

LESSON INTRODUCTION: When God completed the creation of heaven and the earth and everything in them, He looked at all He had made and pronounced it good. God’s judgment often falls on man as a result of sin. We have ignored the holiness of God, and we are surprised that God in His anger takes His holiness more seriously than we do. As sin entered the world, so death entered through sin (Romans 5:12). All these plagues, disasters and pandemics are not out of God’s control, in fact, they play a role in God’s plan. According to Joel 2:25, God declared that He has an army of locust, cankerworm, caterpillar and palmerworm which He sometimes sends to the world for correction and judgments. The operation of these destructive army of the Lord can only bring disasters, famine and hardship to mankind.

LESSON OUTLINE:

WHAT THE BIBLE TELLS US ABOUT GOD?

God as the Creator, Sustainer and Preserver of the Natural world, the first thing the Bible tells us about Him is that He created the heavens and the earth (Genesis 1:1)
He is the creator and He has power and the authority to control the natural forces. (Revelation 4:11)
The Bible tells us that God influences the weather as we see in Deuteronomy 11:17.
God sometimes causes natural disasters as a judgment against sin (James 5:17, Numbers 16:30-34)
Plagues, disasters and pandemics are not part of God’s original created order because the Bible says in Genesis I:31 “And God
saw everything that He had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day”
God applied plagues, epidemics and other mighty acts to free His people from King Pharaoh of Egypt. Ex.7: 20-21, 8:2-5,16-19; 10:4-7, 11:1

ACTIVITIES:
i. What are other reason why God would decide to send plagues, disasters and pandemic to humanity?
ii. What are the things we can do as Christians to make God happy even if He is angry with humanity?

SUMMARY: God is the creator of everything, He can decide to use it for someone or against someone.

CONCLUSION: All these plagues, disasters and pandemics are evidences of God’s anger. Our right response is to tremble before Him in holiness and repent of our sins in humility and praise our maker and our Saviour. “If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land” – 2 Chronicles 7:14.
