Inner Justice

Imagem de capa - Inner Justice

“My Lord, bring justice to my life. Bring justice, Lord!”
When we make this kind of outcry, we cannot imagine the dimension of this phrase. We forget that “life” to God, first, refers to something internal, not external.

The first thing that matters to God, when a life is presented to Him, is precisely what’s inside the person, not the exterior (the problems).

This is why it is necessary to be fully aware of this difference in points of view. When we ask the Almighty Judge to do justice in our lives, we must be aware that His eyes will immediately focus on our inner being, our invisible life, this is, what we do not see.

But if our unrighteousness demonstrates the righteousness of God, what shall we say? Is God unjust who inflicts wrath? (I speak as a man.) Romans 3.5

Certainly there is no unrighteousness in God!

In order for the Justice of God to be externalized with excellence, first it needs to happen inside of the person crying out to Him. There is no justice for those who live in unrighteousness. Where there is sin, injustice will always reign, because it dwells within the sinner.

Where do you need to see the materialization of God’s Justice?
In your marriage?
In your health?
In your family?
Financial life?
Love life?

The Righteous Judge wants and can judge your case, however, there needs to be an inner justice, faithfulness and the correct intention. There must be an exchange of righteousness; in other words, justice must come and go.

Lets analyze our intentions and condition to come before the presence of the Holy Judge and ask Him to plead our case and bring justice to our lives.

We cannot forget that during a trial the plaintiff is also investigated in order to prove the veracity of their complaints.

He who is unjust, let him be unjust still; he who is filthy, let him be filthy still; he who is righteous, let him be righteous still; he who is holy, let him be holy still. Revelation 22.11
