God is Just

Just: God rules with absolute justice. Not fooled by appearances, God is fair, equitable, and impartial in all of His judgments. 

Did you ever feel like you were wronged?  That what someone did to you was unjust?  Have you ever cried out for justice?

Yes, there are many inequities in our world.  People all around are crying out for justice!

Know this:  God will make all things right.  One day everyone will stand before God and will give account for the things they have done.

God is just in all His ways.  "I, the Lord, search all hearts and examine secret motives. I give all people their due rewards, according to what their actions deserve" (Jeremiah 17:10)

Genesis 18:24-25 makes a powerful statement in regards to a tough situation:  “²⁴ Suppose there were fifty righteous within the city; would You also destroy the place and not spare it for the fifty righteous that were in it? ²⁵ Far be it from You to do such a thing as this, to slay the righteous with the wicked, so that the righteous should be as the wicked; far be it from You! Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?” (emphasis added)

Ever felt like you gave and gave to help people, especially the people of the Church and you were either looked down on or not appreciated….you felt cheated?  You felt like God didn't even see what you did?

Listen to what the writer to the Hebrews said:  “God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love you have shown him as you have helped his people and continue to help them.”  (Hebrews 6:10)

He will reward you.  Others may have forgotten, but God has not forgotten!

 "We give thanks to you, O God,
   we give thanks, for your Name is near;
   men tell of your wonderful deeds.
 ² You say, “I choose the appointed time;
   it is I who judge uprightly.
³ When the earth and all its people quake,
   it is I who hold its pillars firm.
                         Selah

⁴ To the arrogant I say, ‘Boast no more,’
   and to the wicked, ‘Do not lift up your horns.
⁵ Do not lift your horns against heaven;
   do not speak with outstretched neck.’”
 ⁶ No one from the east or the west
   or from the desert can exalt a man.
⁷ But it is God who judges:
   He brings one down, he exalts another. (Psalm 75:1-7)

2 Thessalonians 1:6   “ God is just: He will pay back trouble to those who trouble you.”
