HERE COMES THE JUDGE

 
 
Romans 12:19

 

"Beloved, never avenged yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of God, for it is written, 'Vengeance is mine, I will repay,' says the Lord." ESV

 

It is truly in our natural selves to get even with those who have wronged us. Most often, our revenge is far worse than the wrong done against us. We get even out of the emotions of hurt and anger. The Word tells us to keep our emotions under the power of the Holy Spirit and let the Lord take care of what is rightfully His: vengeance.

 

Heavenly Father, we so often allow our natural selves to rob You of what is Yours. Getting even is not ours to do, even though we sure do feel like it is. Forgive us for robbing You of what is rightfully Yours and setting ourselves up as judge and jury. You will take care of all the wrongs done against us in Your time and in Your way. Thank You. In Jesus' name we pray, Amen.
