Disobedience has consequences

I find it fascinating how we read the Bible and all of creation obeys God. However, the smartest of His creation, humans, seems to think disobedience comes with no consequence. Here’s today’s Bible verse. Enjoy. 

Revelation 9:3-5

3 And out of the smoke locusts came down on the earth and were given power like that of scorpions of the earth. 4 They were told not to harm the grass of the earth or any plant or tree, but only those people who did not have the seal of God on their foreheads.5 They were not allowed to kill them but only to torture them for five months. And the agony they suffered was like that of the sting of a scorpion when it strikes.
