WHERE

Joel 2:17
Let the priests, the ministers of the Lord, weep between the porch and the altar, and let them say, Spare thy people, O Lord, and give not thine heritage to reproach, that the heathen should rule over them: wherefore should they say among the people, Where is their God? (KJV)

Where is their God? Here is a question that focuses on the very existence of the Lord God himself. The enquirer is not interested in ‘where’, as a particular place. In a sinister way, the emphasis is on the assertion, “He is not”
Sadly, when this question is raised today, ‘the Church’ (You and I), has to take responsibility for the lack of evidence of God’s working in, and around His people. Our failure to be a fruitful vine, whose harvest is a display of the Lord’s presence, has it’s own reward, both in, and around our lives.

Lord, forgive us for bringing dishonour to Your Kingdom. Amen.
