Are you a Friend of God?

Remember the song, ‘I am a friend of God? Have you sang it? Are you a friend of God? Were you telling the truth when you sand that song? Prove it. Don’t be passive in the presence of evil. Permit evil to vex your soul to the point where you want to do something about it if even it is just prayer. Consider what The Bible says about Lot “And delivered just Lot, vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked: “(For that righteous man dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexed his righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds;) The Lord knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations, and to reserve the unjust unto the day of judgment to be punished:”-2 Peter 2:7-9. There are many of us seeking deliverance from situations, but such deliverance has not been forthcoming. Why? Is it possible that unlike Lot, we see evil around us and instead of it vexing us we just ignore it. Do you mind your business when people profane the name of God and His worthy Son by whom we are saved in your presence? Do you mind your business when you see injustice taking place against somebody that is powerless to help himself knowing that God is a lover of justice? Do you tell the lost about Jesus and the salvation He offers?  Then why should you be surprised when God minds His own business when you are in the same situation?
