Scripture:
“His government and its peace will never end. He will rule with fairness and justice from the throne of his ancestor David for all eternity. The passionate commitment of the Lord of Heaven’s Armies will make this happen!”
Isaiah 9:7 NLT
Observation:
Isaiah here is speaking of the rule and reign of Christ. He says the Lord will rule with fairness and justice and that the passionate commitment of the Lord of Heaven’s Armies is going to do this. When God rules, it is with fairness and justice. God despises unfair and non-just actions.
Application:
The Lord has been dealing with me in the area of justice recently and I am seeing more and more how important justice is in His kingdom. He is a just God and wants those who follow Him to seek justice. I want to learn more and more about this as I see the Lord’s heart for it more and more in Scripture. If we represent the Lord on the earth as His ambassadors, we should be people fo fairness and justice.
Prayer:
Father, continue to open my eyes to fairness and justice. Show me Your view on these things. I want to serve You well and represent You well in the earth. Help me to see through Your eyes and hear through You ears. I want to know Your heart more and more. Show me what is important to You and let it become important to me.
Yours,
Jeff
