So Be It |
Day 18 of 50All the widow wanted was justice. Nevertheless, the judge refused for quite some time. There are times where we can relate to this story. Though our adversary may differ from the widow’s, we want justice, nonetheless. You may be facing opposition because of your faith. Or perhaps you feel as though you are under spiritual enemy fire. The point is that our Lord is far better and far more righteous than any judge found on earth. He sees our enemies, and He knows who our adversaries are. He also knows the friend or loved one you would like see come to Christ. Pray to Him consistently—and yes, even pray to Him about the same things! He will hear, and He will answer. So pray.Lord, I come to you as one in need. I am being attacked on all sides—or at least that’s how I feel. I cry to you, and you alone, knowing that you hear my cries and they are not wasted. Please bring justice as only you can, and help me to persevere through it all. Keep me strong. Keep me faithful. In Jesus’ name, So Be It. Luke 18:1-8 Luke 18:1-8 KJV
1 And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint;
2 Saying, There was in a city a judge, which feared not God, neither regarded man: 3 And there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary. 4 And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man; 5 Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me. 6 And the Lord said, Hear what the unjust judge saith. 7 And shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them? 8 I tell you that he will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth? |
