Justice and Judgment

Read:  Psalm 89 / Proverbs 21 / Genesis 20 / Luke 23

 

Psalm 89:14,15 Justice and judgment are the habitation of thy throne: mercy and truth shall go before thy face. Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they shall walk, O LORD, in the light of thy countenance.

Proverbs 21:29 A wicked man hardeneth his face: but as for the upright, he directeth his way.

Genesis 20:11 Surely the fear of God is not in this place.

Luke 23:40 Dost not thou fear God, seeing thou art in the same condemnation?

 

The law and judgment of God’s throne

Are His eternal habitation,

But grace and truth through Christ have flown

Before His face to bring salvation!

 

Though some will choose to still be hardened,

The fear of God directs us all

To flee to Christ and thus be pardoned, 

As did the thief who heard His call.
