Good things happen to bad people and bad things happen to good people Where is the justice in that? - Justice is limited to the knowledge of man • The justice of man is based on the knowledge of God • You have to know God’s judicial process Why does God allow us to experience the enemy’s attacks? • The justice scales need to be in balance • The keys to God’s justice are hidden in God’s Word Keys • Before Jesus was resurrected, the justice was harsh • After the cross, Jesus took judgement upon Himself • If you don’t make a claim, He won’t render a decision • Some don’t believe they deserve justice • We are required to ask for it. What about you? Have you not received justice that is coming to you or even your family? What makes up the foundation of God’s throne? • Truth and love justice and righteousness • Peace and humility Karma can’t bring justice Keys: • Make sure you’re innocent by asking for forgiveness; forgive those whose wronged you - Mathew 18:21–22 - “Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up to seven times? Jesus said to him, I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven.” • Catch the thief • Recognize what happened to you was not from God • Your losses can be restored to you seven times over • The enemy has to have intruded on you illegally • He attacks two ways • Intrusion • Invitation (you opened a door) • Pride • Greed • Lust • Guilt • Fear Keep asking for justice - Luke 18:1–8 - “There was in a certain city a judge who did not fear God nor regard man. Now, there was a widow in that city; and she came to him, saying, ‘Get justice for me from my adversary.’ And he would not for a while, but afterward he said within himself, ‘Though I do not fear God nor regard man, yet because this widow troubles me I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.’ Then the Lord said, “Hear what the unjust judge said. And shall God not avenge His own elect who cry out day and night to Him, though He bears long with them? I tell you that He will avenge them speedily.” God’s justice is not based on revenge; it’s based on God’s great love for you.
