Where Is Justice?

Trusting in God's justice rather than the justice of men is a fundamental principle of our faith. Human ways can be crooked and fallible, subject to error and injustice. God's justice, however, is perfect and unchanging.

The Bible reminds us in Proverbs 3:5–6:

Trust in the Lord with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways submit to him,
and he will make your paths straight.

When we face challenges, we must remember that God is the supreme Judge, and He will bring justice in His time and in the way He sees fit. Therefore, our faith should be anchored in trust in divine justice, regardless of human circumstances.

Do you rulers indeed speak justly?
Do you judge people with equity?
No, in your heart you devise injustice,
and your hands mete out violence on the earth.
- Psalm 58:1–2

Do you believe that politicians and celebrities always judge rightly? Do you think people can bring redemption to a nation? The truth is that only God judges with perfect justice. Only He truly knows the hearts and intentions behind every action we take.

It is very common to fall into the temptation of idolizing a political leader who promises justice. Such a person may be powerful, celebrated, and applauded by thousands of followers, making it easy to place our hope in them. But remember that all human beings are flawed, including those in positions of power. That is why we must be willing to condemn wrongdoing, no matter who commits it.

Yesterday's Word

God can open doors of employment

Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?
- Matthew 6:26

The world is going through difficult times of economic crisis, financial instability, and collapsing markets. This, along with many other alarming situations we face, can lead us to become even more stressed.

We will become full of frustration if we focus on the world. But when we look to the Lord, we know that He can open doors that no one else could open. If you need a job, ask Jesus, because the Kingdom of God is never in crisis. God is good and He is always faithful!

Ah, Sovereign Lord, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and outstretched arm. Nothing is too hard for you.
- Jeremiah 32:17

What seems impossible for human beings is possible for God. He knows what is best for you and wants to guide you to achieve it. Spend some time with God, talking to Him about your need to find a new job. Pray that He will help you connect with the right people who can support you in this situation. Seek guidance on how to write a better résumé and stay alert to job opportunities.

But above all, do not become overwhelmed. Take steps of faith and trust that God will open doors and help you.

Day Before Yesterday's Word

The best way

The Lord bless you and keep you;
the Lord make his face shine on you
and be gracious to you;
the Lord turn his face toward you
and give you peace.”
- Numbers 6:24–26

What is the best way to start and end the day? With the Word of God! In the Bible you will find words of strength and help to face each day. When we develop the habit of reading the Bible and praying, we notice a great difference in our lives as Christians. At the right moments, we remember the words of the Lord and know what we should do.

Setting aside time before the Lord, seeking His presence, strengthens our spirit and helps us prepare for the day with optimism and confidence.

But I cry to you for help, Lord;
in the morning my prayer comes before you.
- Psalm 88:13

Read the Bible today and allow God to speak to you. He will give you the guidance you need to make the right decisions and live within His will every day. Talk to God, hand over your worries to Him, and wait on Him. You will feel peace, knowing that He is in control, and you will become calmer and more confident.

In the morning, Lord, you hear my voice;
in the morning I lay my requests before you
and wait expectantly.
– Psalm 5:3

Do as the psalmist did: talk to God and be attentive to His response. You will see how God will surprise you.
