“The LORD saw how great man’s wickedness on the earth had become, and that every inclination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil all the time.” Genesis 6:5
Would you put “wicked” on the list of things you would call yourself? I think most of us like to think of wicked as something reserved for “wicked witches of the west” and other ugly people. Unfortunately for our line of thinking, wickedness has nothing to do with physical appearance. Some of the most beautiful people have some of the ugliest hearts on the planet. And so we get to the heart of the matter–it’s all about our hearts! Now, within that line of thinking, would you put “wicked” on the list of things you would call yourself? Frankly, we are all capable of plenty of evil and wickedness if we decided to put our minds to it. The only question is whether or not you’ve realized that fact and done something about it!
“You have no part or share in this ministry, because your heart is not right before God. Repent of this wickedness and pray to the Lord. Perhaps he will forgive you for having such a thought in your heart. For I see that you are full of bitterness and captive to sin.” Acts 8:21-23
