LOVE WORTH FINDING 12TH FEBRUARY 2025 WEDNESDAY DEVOTIONAL MESSAGE BY ADRIAN ROGERS
TOPIC: Why Doesn’t God Just Destroy Evil Now?
“But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.” – Romans 8:11
PONDER THIS
Love is the highest good, but forced love is a contradiction. Forced love is not love at all. In order to love, we must be free to love, to choose to love, and in order to choose to love, we have to be able to choose not to love. So, God gave us the choice. And Adam and Eve chose not to listen to God. They didn’t trust Him; they trusted their way instead. Now, that sinful nature has been passed down to us from generation to generation.

So why doesn’t God just destroy evil? Why doesn’t God just step in, obliterate the devil, and eradicate all sin? Why doesn’t God go into every cancer ward and empty them out? Why doesn’t God take away the curse from nature? Why doesn’t God make it impossible for people to sin? We’re right back to the original question.
If God were to destroy evil, God would destroy every opportunity of choice, and if God would destroy every opportunity for choice, then God would destroy every opportunity for love, the highest good. God knows His plan and He is taking care of the problem of evil whether we feel like it or not. He has taken care of it through Christ and will put an end to evil once and for all when Christ returns.
- What are some of the evils of the world that challenge you?
- How does it encourage you to know God is taking care of the problem of evil? How can you trust Him to take care of the struggles of your life?
PRACTICE THIS
Praise God for resolving the problem of evil perfectly and completely in His timing.
