Justified by the Judge


O God, listen to my complaint.
    Protect my life from my enemies’ threats.

But God himself will shoot them with his arrows,
    suddenly striking them down.
Their own tongues will ruin them,
    and all who see them will shake their heads in scorn.
Then everyone will be afraid;
    they will proclaim the mighty acts of God
    and realize all the amazing things he does.
10 The godly will rejoice in the Lord and find shelter in him.
And those who do what is right will praise him.

- Psalm 64


Most of us have enemies in life. They don't have to be physically tangible, most of human's enemies are the evil one. But no matter how enemies' come in many forms, shapes and sizes, they are able to hurt us if we let them. All we could ever do is to cling with our entire lives to Yeshua, if you know Him, you will understand that HE is the only one who could ever protect you from such enemies and even real enemies we see in the world today. For if GOD is for us, who could be against us? If GOD is standing by your side, don't you think HE would defend you if you are being attacked? GOD will do supernatural things to vindicate you, you don't even have to lift a finger to defend yourself. 

GOD will cause their own evil actions to backfire on them. The very weapons they use to attack you will hurt them. People will witness that they have been punished by the true GOD who is siding with you. They will see GOD at work in your life if you let GOD be GOD. It is far easier to take matters into our own hands when we have been wronged, but it takes faith to stand and depend on GOD's hand to vindicate. But once you entrust to HIM your vengeance, everyone will see it and they will declare the mighty acts of GOD of how amazing HE is. No matter how you treated, been oppressed by the evil of this world, one thing remains for sure. People who love GOD will find shelter in HIM, they will rejoice even in difficult circumstances because HE rewards those whose hearts are right towards HIM and the LORD will surely see to it that the just ones are justified by the great JUDGE.
