At times, we do ask as to how could a good God allow such crimes, violences, injustices and wickedness occur again and again as if no judgment is executed against them. However, in II Samuel 24:1, we have a glimpse of what God actually did against all the wickedness in Israel at that time. It says, "... the anger of the Lord was aroused against Israel, and He moved David against them to say, “Go, number Israel and Judah.” This act of numbering the people was actually a sin that caused God to punish Israel whereby 70,000 men died (verses 10, 14 & 17). Hope this will cause us to have fear of God - to know that our God is a holy God and He cannot tolerate wickedness. We do not need to sigh when the wicked seems to prosper for we know our God is just. The wicked shall perish; the enemies of the Lord , like the splendor of the meadows, shall vanish. Into smoke they shall vanish away.(Psalm 37:20) https://twitter.com/EstherOngHC
