Conclusion of the matter

By: Simon Maina Nuhuย 

“Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. For God shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil”.

(Ecclesiastes 12:13-14)

Human beings have a driven desire to constantly explore their surrounding, talents, potentials etc. The human mind always houses the quest to thrive and be successful, aspires to be decorated with fame honor, glorification and all manner of prestigious recognition. In a bit to achieve all the aforementioned mundane yardsticks to a fulfilled life, man tends to be overwhelmed and however, forgets about the most important thing in life: the fear of God! The natural (carnal) man goes all his way to get comfort he ever needed, at all cost even ifย  it involves destroying the peace, fortunes and lives of other people.

Now, God has to clearly remind the world that he ever matters in all that we do. Of course, achieving great feats in philosophy, science, technology and other contemporary social tools of modern advancement is in fact, not only commendable but also worthy of attainment. Nonetheless, as children of God, we should know that, that’s not the ultimate achievement of a man, as they are what Solomon eventually ascribed as “vanity upon vanity” (Eccl 1:1-2). We are expected to fear God, as that is the primary heavenly requirementย  from all men, irrespective of social, political, professional status, gender, affiliations. Some people have mistaken the fear of God to think because God is all loving, he condones all manner of careless attitudes and behavior.

As the Bible highlighted, that the paramount thing as far as human existence is concerned, is to fear God and keep His commandments at all time, because that is the entire “duty” of a man. So, with all the worldly feats, records, recognitions, without the fear of God, we stand to be judge by the Almighty God, and who is to stand the wrath of God? absolutely, nobody! Beloved, let us be informed that our whole existence on Earth is to fear Him and keep His commandments at all time!

 

Prayer point: Let us thank God for His message to us. Let’s also ask Him to regularly remind us that we Him loyalty, worship and profound obedience, and to grant us grace to do all that He require of us. God bless us all.
