Self Inflicted Wounds
Joel 1:2 Hear this, you elders,
And give ear, all you inhabitants of the land!
Has anything like this happened in your days,
Or even in the days of your fathers?
Due to Israels sin & rebellion, cursing comes upon the land. God speaks to the leadership & His people. These two questions are those that nobody wants to hear. They would be unique in a bad way. They not only had an example in their day but no example in their history. This happens when we stray from the word of God. There are all sorts of things men get involved with no biblical warrant. I must as a christian hear & listen to my Lord. I dont want to live in the grey areas of life. Clear direction is given me in black and red letters.

The message is talking about the past and future day of the Lord. A day of divine judgment and wrath. It is important to seek truth and discernment in order to act wisely. I must look back and assist the severity of my sins because God is calling for reflection and repentance. I must give undivided attention to the Lord in order to confront evil that I might be spare from the wrath of God. I must live in God’s will, mercy and grace.
