“…for we are about to destroy this place because their outcry has become so great before the LORD that the LORD has sent us to destroy it.” (Genesis 19:13)
The destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah stands as a reminder that God watches and considers the events of history and the ways of man. God is not distant and unaware of our sufferings or of the wickedness of oppressors. God sees sin and its ability to become a cancer that must be cut out for the sake of the salvation of the rest of the body of mankind.
God is a just God, and He is also a God who sees. He saw and delivered Lot, and He also saw and returned vengeance upon those wicked cities. Do not make the mistake of thinking that your life is hidden from Him.
