The Heavens are the Lords but the Earth He has given to the sons of men. Ps115:16
Imagine you had a rich father. A really, really rich
father. When you turn 18, he buys you a house. Your name is on the deed. “This
home is yours. It is fully furnished. You can do with it what you want. But
anytime you want my help, just ask. You know I would love to help. If you get
hungry, ask and I will send food. If you make a mess, ask and I will send a
maid. If something breaks, ask and I will send a repair man.” But in your
rebellion he make a disaster of the house. Parties are every night. People are
drinking and doing drugs. In a matter of days the place is a dump. Who’s fault
is that?
God has lovingly furnished Earth perfectly for us. Any
time we need His help, we can just ask. That is what prayer is.
Heaven is Gods house. There His will is perfectly done.
Earth is our house. It is where mans will is done. Heaven has no rapes or child
molesters, no murders or beggers. Earth has all manner of ailments. Why? That
is the big question isn’t it? Why does a good God allow such a wicked Earth?
The answer is simple, because He has given earth to the sons of men.
