There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown. (Genesis 6:4)
Giants came from the fallen angels that had rebelled against God and then walked in their fallen nature. These giants posed a genuine threat during those times. Their descendants were the ones that scared the ten spies from the twelve tribes of Israel from entering the land. However, they did not intimidate Joshua and Caleb!
These angels who sinned against God’s way will not be spared; they will be cast down to hell and confined in chains of absolute and utter darkness. God is not lax in His judgment against unrighteousness. There is always a consequence for rebellion.
In fact, the flood that engulfed the old world, sparing only Noah and his family, was a testament to God's unwavering commitment to righteousness.
God has a perfect will, a divine plan, and a purpose for your life. When we purposely pursue unrighteousness, not only do we miss out on God’s blessings, but also subject ourselves to giant consequences that are difficult to handle.
Make a conscious decision to find God’s will and follow God’s will in all situations. Walk in the blessing and get yourself away from the giants of rebellion as much as possible.
Practical Application
Choose the path of obedience. God’s way always yields positive results, whereas the ways of the flesh may feel good for the moment, but always end up in consequences that try to hold us back from God’s best.
