FAITH CAPSULE:<\/strong> Today, people are still retaining the spirit of building Babel Tower.<\/p>\n

Isaiah 14<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Man\u2019s wicked executions will not escape the attention of God. God alone made all man and He sees all man\u2019s wickedness before man\u2019s execution. Jeremiah 1:5 buttressed, \u201cBefore I formed you in the womb I knew you; before you were born I sanctified you; I ordained you a prophet to the nations.\u201d <\/em><\/strong>God\u2019s word to Jeremiah does not exempt no man. God wanted the people to fill the earth but their word of negative confession of not to become scattered over all the surface of the earth was the word of God for them to be scattered with confusion language.
\nPride of the people was the evidence of the people\u2019s move to build themselves a city; a tower whose top is in the heavens; and to make name for selves at Babel. Today, people are still retaining the spirit of building Babel Tower which is evident as a mark of pride that destroys man. The word \u2018us\u2019 was the language of the people with no reference to the name of God. The attitude of man was in line with \u2018I\u2019 which is of Satan the father of pride. The bible recorded in Isaiah 14:13-14, \u201cI will ascend into heaven\u2026I will exalt my throne above the stars of God\u2026I will be like the Most High\u201d <\/em><\/strong>Like Satan, people were driven by Rebellious pride. Three judgement from time of Adam to the time of Babel were the result of the wickedness of pride before God and all were scattered. Three judgement of early time were sinful humanity: The expulsion from Eden (Genesis 3) Flood of Noah time (Genesis 6-9) Scattering at the Babel. (Genesis 11) Luke 1:51 talked about God scattering the people because of pride.
\nBabylon, the city of ancient pagans is mentioned\/believed as site of confusion because there the Lord confused language. Babel (and Babylon) serves as a name and symbol of activities directed against God. (Revelation 17)
\nBabel was a building outside of God\u2019s word. Paul\u2019s word commends us to let the word of God build us, to give us our inheritance among all those who are sanctified. (Acts 20:32) To be building outside of God is giving a position for sin. Sin scatters. Arrogance that is rooted in pride was the motivation of the people. To build Babel is a symbol of human pride. Babel is the tower of confusion.
\nHow are you building? Who have you joined to be building with? Are you building outside or inside of the word of God? No matter how small or how big you are building; no matter how beautiful is what joined in building; there is a need to build in the word of God. Before God there will be no reasonable excuse for building outside of God. It is important to take it to mind that God\u2019s time is coming to scatter or establish what man is building. Building in the word of God shall be established to the glory of God. Do not build Babel.<\/p>\n
