Justice For All In God's Eyes

This is what the Lord says: "Give justice to all people, and do what is right, because my salvation will come to you soon. Soon everyone will know that I do what is right. The person who obeys the law about the Sabbath will be blessed, and the person who does no evil will be blessed. - Isaiah 56:1-2 (NCV)

Be just and fair to all. Do what is right and good, for I am coming soon to rescue you and to display my righteousness among you. Blessed are all those who are careful to do this.
- Isaiah 56:1-2 (NLT)



Justice is important because it ensures fairness, equality, consistency, and equal opportunity to all. True justice eliminates politics, double standards, inequity, and oppression to name a few. Justice comes from the heart of God. As christians, we acknowledge many things come from the heart of God as we continue our journey in Him. And from God's heart He blesses people who are just. I think you all agree His blessings are very bountiful and rewarding to every person who receives them. Leaders who insist on justice, fairness, and equity in their followers or their organization will experience blessing from God. But remember, those blessings are meant to be shared just as Christ is meant to be shared with all.



Song: JUSTICE AND MERCY ( Isaiah 58, Psalm 40:3, James 1:27 )
Matt Redman

Lyrics:
You've put a new song in my mouth
It is a hymn of praise to You
Jus-tice and mercy are its theme
And I will live it back to You


The kind of fast You've chosen, Lord It must reach out
To broken lives and to the poor So change me, Lord

I know You are the orphan's hope
I know You are the widow's song
O Lord, You're showing me what's on You're heart ( Chorus )

Lord, I wont bring an empty song It's meaningless
Without compassion in my life And holiness

You're Father were no father lives
And to the lonely You're a friend
O Lord, You're showing me what's on You're heart ( Chorus )

I know You are the orphan's hope
I know You are the widow's song
You're Father were no father lives
And to the lonely You're a friend
O Lord, You're showing me what's on You're heart ( Chorus )

Is justice essential in your leadership?
