True Government is Kingdom Justice

Chaos or Divine Order: YOU CHOOSE

The only government that works is the kingdom Justice that came through Jesus Christ. If the word is “get rid of Christians”, then there is only chaos, for they carry His presence and they pray for those who do not know Him.
So when seeing chaos, do we remember the chaos in the beginning and what God did?

Just look at the beginning when the Holy Spirit hovered over the face of the deep in Genesis 1:1. In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. 2 The earth was without form and void; and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the deep.

Chaos ruled and then God spoke. And chaos came into order, and the mess became a garden. Planets were formed, and the sun began to light the earth. Stars covered the night time sky and waters began to be filled with all kinds of marine life.  What God spoke was an approval for the earth to produce and it produce!

As in the beginning, chaos is transformed into or by a process of life and order!

Order came when God spoke it into being!

Proverbs 11:1 Dishonest scales are an abomination to the LORD, But a just weight is His delight. Proverbs 16:11 Honest weights and scales are the LORD’S; all the weights in the bag are His work.

From Proverbs 16:11 His work refers to His concern! In the days of Solomon, weights and balances were the way purchases were made. They were to be accurate in measuring the weight of an item that was being purchases or sold. 
So in dealing with material things, we are to deal in justice with man to man.

In this understanding that God never cheats anyone. He is not a man who lies, but He is God of righteousness and truth.

But those outside the justice of God will bargain with anything to gain the advantage over another person. They will offer free stuff to you but their heart is not with you. To deal accurately, one should have the fair priced fixed and never be changed on a whim nor by a circumstance!  So those who deal accurately will obtain that place that is honest and transparent in their dealings. But those who  wheel and deal just to make a windfall will make deals, but they are the empty deal and they are of the falsehood that has no life to it.  The 'wheeler dealer' who takes advantage of another will never gain anything by deceit. What does the scripture say: Proverbs 23:5 Will you set your eyes on that which is not? For riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away like an eagle toward heaven.

Setting one's heart on riches can and will make that one look like a fool. Our eyes should be set on Jesus who is the author and finisher of our faith (Hebrews 12:2) Making God our goal, we receive benefits and they never fly away. When we see God as our answer, then we are those who look to His wisdom in all decisions to be made.

It is in God we find that justice and those who live by faith find that pathway.

Seeking God's justice is seeking His mercy. And mercy only comes from God and hopefully by the man or woman who have Jesus as Lord of their lives. Jesus came to relieve the oppressed, to judge the fatherless and plead for the widow.

Jeremiah 22:15-17 NKJV 15 “shall you reign because you enclose yourself in cedar? Did not your father eat and drink, and do justice and righteousness? Then it was well with him. 16 He judge the cause of the poor and needy; then it was well. Was not this knowing Me? Says the LORD. 17 Yet your eyes and your heart are for nothing but your covetousness, for shedding innocent blood, and practicing oppression and violence.

Character is certainly seen when one practices violence against another, that is to defame one without cause and kick them to the curb like they are an animal. That is not justice from God. That is justice that comes from the rebellious one. It is for 'me, myself and I' and looks to exalt oneself and make the other person look bad.

An example: I remember a doctor, my husband and I met years ago. He had no manner in dealing with the patient.  Our daughter as a teenager had gone four-wheeling with friends of my husband from his workplace. Our daughter suffered an accident when something happened on a dirt road . She was headed toward a barb-wired fence and jumped from the four-wheeler and in the process, she injured her back.  The attending doctor was pushing and shoving on her back that seemed out of place and wrong at the time. He caused more pain and discomfort than that which the accident had imposed upon her. He seemed more like he was punching a punching bag than caring for the person before him. He asked not questions, he only proceeded his probe of injury!!

Another doctor who was our child’s pediatrician was a good doctor, knowledgeable in childhood diseases and surgery and had the ‘bedside’ manner that represented a caring heart for others. We saw this when she had an appendectomy at age 12. He cared for his patient and understood the child's thinking and motivated her to relax in the healing process. He encouraged her that fun times were still ahead and the appendix would not be there to aggravate her anymore.

God’s justice is the justice that comes through His mercy. It is His righteousness that is the action of His mercy. As we have seen from the two examples of the doctors in their respective roles: the relief of the oppressed and needy, so too God’s justice is His kingly power. The difference seen in the two men are apparently different. One was caring, and one was not. For one doctor, it was about the patient and the other was not!

But God in His justice never changes. In His rule, our God’s justice is joined with His mercy. He is just! Isaiah 45:21 Tell and bring forth your case; Yes, let them take counsel together. Who has declared this from ancient time? Who has told it from that time? Have not I, the LORD? And there is no other God besides Me, a just God and a Savior; There is none beside Me.

Psalm 7:17 I will praise the LORD according to His righteousness, and will sing praise to the name of the LORD MOST HIGH.

God is supreme God and He is righteous. He is righteous in His judgments and justice.

 Psalm 140:12-13 NKJV 12 I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the afflicted, and justice for the poor. 13 Surely the righteous shall give thanks to Your name; the upright shall dwell in Your presence.

Psalm 94:14-15  NKJV  For the LORD will not cast off His inheritance. 15 But judgment will return to righteousness, and all the upright in heart will follow it.

Psalm 103:6 The LORD executes righteousness and justice for all who are oppressed.

While working on this, I thought of this scripture in Proverbs 23:7 As a man thinks in his heart, so is he; Eat and drink! He says to you, but his heart is not with you. For certainly our thoughts should be those that the Lord thinks of us and we should meditate on them and speak them daily for He has only positive things to say about us! We should not allow Satan to use our spirit as the garbage dump by mediating on negative things that only he can offer!

In Mark 9:43-48, we are reminded of the garbage dump in Jesus’ day. In this passage Jesus was warning of the severe consequences of endangering the immortal soul of another person. Whatever part of our person offends us to sin then it is better to cut it off and live in pain than to spend eternity in fire and damnation.

If we as the doctor, lawyer, janitor, mail carrier, the mayor, the surgeon, or even the trash collector, do not treat others in justice, then God is not present with us.

If  the doctor only offers to med-up the 'patient' in the latest medical wonders, then that could be addictions that is not needed medicine for our body. He is not with you in health of your body.

 If the lawyer asks you to sue someone, and take them for everything they have, that is stealing. And his heart is not with you but in 'money' matters!

 If the mayor looks the other way when injustices are done to any agency within that governing county and community he sees over, then said mayor is operating out of his own desires and interests and not the righteous ones seen in and though God. 

If the mail carrier decides to not deliver the mail on his route he is dishonest and not responsible to fulfilling his commitment to the actual work required at his job. If he throws all that mail into the nearest ditch and goes home to watch television or play video games, his heart is not with you. He will not deliver "your mail" so that you might receive that water bill and possibly that belated birthday card a family member sent to you. That 'water bill' goes unpaid and you never know of the sweet sentiment of the relative who sent the card unless they ask you if you received it.

 If the surgeon operates on the wrong person and takes out their spleen and they had no problem with their spleen, the surgeon was not active in his duty to perform the right procedure on the right person at the time. His heart was not with any patient that day. He was overtaken maybe pride or too many other things going on in his life like his wife is divorcing him, his grown son has moved to another country, his daughter has chosen to not finish high school and his insurance premiums are sky-high because of oversights in the hospital surgery department!

What causes injustice is what causes one to rebel and that is sin and the desire to please themselves. Justice is being and acting like God would act in any situation. And His government is on His shoulders. Isaiah 9:6-7 NKJV For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; and the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. 7 Of the increase of His government and peace there will be no end, Upon the throne of David and over His kingdom, to order it and establish it with judgment and justice, form that time forward, even forever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.

Those who are the ‘redeemed’ of the Lord know Jesus as the ruler of their hearts. His reign is a health to them. He is prosperity, happiness and peace. They hold the banner of victory knowing God sent Jesus into the battle and He came out victorious for us. He is our justice who brought us wisdom from God that is in exhaustible, the Truth and the Way which guides us daily into our future. He leads us by His Holy Spirit down the path which is well marked with His presence, His peace and love!

Yes, true government is Kingdom Justice and it begins with that saving grace. No matter your ethnicity, no matter where you live, God is only the way to life and through Jesus we have life and justice. And without it.....well, it is empty,that futile place with wars and rumors of wars, violence and hate! Let us abide in Him and pray for the justice to roll down like a river for the nation and see God's kingdom come to us in the way He expects us.....to cooperate with Him and His purpose. Amen.

SEE ME LORD!

Have you ever prayed the prayer, "Lord, I will go where You want me to go, I will do what You ask me to do and I will speak what You what me to speak"?

I have many times! "Nevertheless, not my will be done, but Your's be done God in my life!"

Matthew 26:39
39 Going a little farther, he fell with his face to the ground and prayed, "My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will."  NIV

Jesus was headed to the "Cross". He was taking the sin of man!

Luke 22:42-44

42 "Father, if you are willing, take this cup from me; yet not my will, but yours be done." 43 An angel from heaven appeared to him and strengthened him. 44 And being in anguish, he prayed more earnestly, and his sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground.  

NIV

I like this in Luke 22:42..........Jesus is asking if the Father is willing.......take this cup from me, yet not my will, BUT YOURS BE DONE. AND THEN in verse 43..........an angel from heaven appeared to him and strengthened Him. And being in anguish, he prayed more earnestly and His sweat became as drops of blood falling to the ground.

Yes our lives are a journey through this world and into eternity with God. If we do not "know" Him then we will be somewhere in eternity away from God, away from His love and away from anything good!

God is accessible and we, too, are to be accessible to others as well. Although it has become the "difficult" when so many use only one source of communicating. That is: if one only texts or if one only uses like Facebook for instance!
It is important that we use our language and speak out with real words........for ourselves to hear and for others to hear as well. Our language makes the difference in communicating with others.

Staying with God means that we talk with His words............and looking to Him for answers to any questions we may have in prayer. I wrote something about this for our grand-child recently. And in it I reminded her of the importance of speaking words.

 That talking to your-self takes perseverance. In it, we speak God’s Word into our lives.   We are told in  Philippians 4:6-9................6 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. 7 And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. 

8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable-if anything is excellent or praiseworthy-think about such things. 9 Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen in me-put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you. NIV

Paul wrote: "whatever you have learned or received or heard from me (Paul), or seen in me....put it into practice. And the God of peace will be with you."

AND Colossians 3.....speaks this:Colossians 3:3-4

3 For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. 4 When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.  NIV

We are the hidden with Christ in God. Christ Who is our life is to lead us.

I told our grand-child how we can wrestle with some things. And when any friction from another person or just something within ourselves occurs, we must point to our body, to our own selves, and SPEAK!  The words we speak will encourage us, strengthen us, and help us to raise our eyes above the circumstance. 
Encountering say persecution because of the way you act in church or how you may dress or something someone else sees in you that bothers them, can bring some painful words to you, but we do not expect to take those painful things to our hurt. We fill our heart today with God’s Words that help us to rise above any persecution, any sickness or any pain.

We desire that “doubt” will not enter our hearts. We desire to keep our stance, that place we walk with God, and keep to His plan with our hand in His and converse as always.

Internal struggles can come, but we look to God and what He tells us to overcome in those situations.  

We are to remember that God, so loved the world that He gave. He gave us His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God You did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. 18 I am the he who believes in Him and I am not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. (John 3:16-18) NKJV

That "he" who believes, will continue living, to continue the "journey" and to find us (each) in His love, His peace and His glory. Whatever cup that you drink from, is to do His will regarding the cup. It may be something you did yourself, but He will send "HELP". HIS WORD IS WEALTH TO US AND IT IS HIS PEACE!  The more we access Him and His glory, the more we move deeper into Him and His peace.

Our asking to go for Him, is willing to go, "no matter their looks", "no matter their verbal abuse" and "no matter whether they hear " you speak. We are not God, and He certainly can take care of things Himself. But we are to be His witness on and in the earth. 

Today, I give this prophetic Word. 

It keeps playing out.........and here I write it..........the vision!

The scripture base of it is below:

Luke 7:11-17

11 Soon afterward, Jesus went to a town called Nain, and his disciples and a large crowd went along with him. 12 As he approached the town gate, a dead person was being carried out-the only son of his mother, and she was a widow. And a large crowd from the town was with her. 13 When the Lord saw her, his heart went out to her and he said, "Don't cry." 

14 Then he went up and touched the coffin, and those carrying it stood still. He said, "Young man, I say to you, get up!" 15 The dead man sat up and began to talk, and Jesus gave him back to his mother. 

16 They were all filled with awe and praised God. "A great prophet has appeared among us," they said. "God has come to help his people." 17 This news about Jesus spread throughout Judea and the surrounding country.  NIV

Someone has been told that which they loved has died. It can be a ministry, a "special job", a dream they held for decades, but God is speaking, and the Father declares this day by His Son and that shed Blood, that which held many to their faith, believing God is for them and with them,  prevails this day.  For the Lord has seen your tears and the "silent tears" no one saw, but God did. And He declares this day, that whatever church group is carrying your vision out in a coffin to be buried, that which is a dream come true is being put in a coffin and taken out for burial or that ministry that is built on the foundation of the Cornerstone of Jesus is going to be raised.

The "mourners" have come to close the lid of that which God destined for you to walk out, take HEED!....IT IS NOT OVER, BUT GOD! 

With a prevailing winds of the Holy Spirit, holding onto promise, you will see that 'dream', "that ministry", that "special job" God created just for you is coming to pass.

HOLD ON! DON'T LOSE FAITH, UNDERSTAND GOD IS ON YOUR SCENE, AND RESURRECTION POWER IS PREVAILING.

AHH, LISTEN, THE WIND BEGINS.......THE LORD IS PERFORMING HIS WORD. He is watching over His Word to perform It! Jeremiah 1:12.

For you who have helped another, when they were either the "abandoned" or needed help cleaning up a "mess" someone else caused, God saw your generous act, and He is reminding you today, that you killed the giant like David, but was done for others..........like that giant was King Saul's problem. David just showed up and helped! In that merciful way, God is helping you.

See Me Lord!

Jeremiah 12:1-3

You are always righteous, O LORD,

when I bring a case before you.

Yet I would speak with you about your justice:

Why does the way of the wicked prosper?

Why do all the faithless live at ease? 

2 You have planted them, and they have taken root;

they grow and bear fruit.

You are always on their lips 

but far from their hearts. 

3 Yet you know me, O LORD;

you see me and test my thoughts about you.  NIV

 Yes, He sees you. He knows your thoughts for Him ........you have been tested..........and found TRUE!

Father, let your justice run down now for those who value You and Your word. Let justice run down through the offices of which they stand or work. Let justice run down like water, and righteousness like a mighty stream. Let it run!
Amos 5:24
24 But let justice roll on like a river,
righteousness like a never-failing stream! NIV

Ministry rise to God's plan, live....dream........speak loudly the things of God.......bring forth life in my dreams Lord, that which is ordained by YOU my God alone. Stand and live.....in that position....that which God ordained specifically for you. Rise out of the coffin, rise out of that which spoke of "defeat" and "death" for God is performing that which others will see. It will speak and give glory to God. Others will see and know that God has done this: for it was for this very hour, that God raises that which is to glorify the life in Him that will bring many to salvation.
Stand in awe, for the great Lord has come, and God has helped his people.
Father, may the news about Jesus continue to spread throughout our land and the surround country.
