"The exercise of justice is joy for the righteous, but is terror to the worker of iniquity." Proverbs 21:15
Justice usually come after one in authority hands down a sentence for a perpetrator to be punished.
Justice may not come as we would want it to, but it will come. When all men stand before Jesus, He will be the Just and the Justifier of all.
Those who are righteous have joy in justice because their complaint has been heard and their case stands open before a wise and all knowing and just God. Those martyred saints in Revelation 6 cry out for the blood of those who killed them because of their hatred for Christ.
God Almighty, will enact justice.
Those workers of iniquity may have gotten away their whole lives with their acts of cruelty and viciousness, but the day will come when a holy fire will burn off the dross and reveal all.
Which person will you be?
Read Proverbs 21:1-17 and weigh yourself on the scales of justice. Better to do it now while there is mercy available in Jesus.
