Psalm 36:5,6

Your mercy, O Lord, is in the heavens;
Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.
Your righteousness is like the great mountains;
Your judgments are a great deep;
O Lord, You preserve man and beast.

God's wrath is an attribute that we don't like to talk
about very much. I don't think I've ever heard it
mentioned in those services where people are asked to
give popcorn testimonies about the characteristics of
God. It is so much easier and fun to trill on about His
love, mercy, grace, righteousness, holiness, eternity, and
sometimes even His justice...but His wrath? who wants
to even approach it. Unfortunately, in the opinion of some,
God approaches it Himself.

Nahum 2:1

God is jealous, and the Lord avenges;
The Lord avenges and is furious.
The Lord will take vengeance on His adversaries,
And He reserves wrath for His enemies;

Through the ages men have sacrificed many things to the
gods in order to propitiate their wrath and bring more
favorable circumstances their way. They've given money,
food, even their children to turn the anger of the gods
away from them. None of that worked.

Only God could pacify His own wrath. He did it by making
propitiation through the vicarious death of His own
beloved Son, Jesus Christ.

Now we can rejoice, if we have entered into that place of
safety, the place where the wrath of God can no longer come.
Now we are no longer His enemies, we are His own adopted
children.
