Proverbs 21:15 When God Says...I Say, AMEN!

When God says...

“It is joy to the just to do judgment: But destruction shall be to the workers of iniquity.” (Proverbs 21:15 KJV)

This passage reveals two scenes of events which the Message paraphrase describes as, “Good people celebrate when justice triumphs, but for the workers of evil it’s a bad day.”(Proverbs 21:15 MSG)

We are witnessing two camps of contrasting display of emotions. A noise of celebration is heard from the camp of the just workers of integrity. While a deafening silence of gloom is felt in the campground of agents of iniquity.

And, God's word warns with promises: “God is just: He will pay back trouble to those who trouble you and give relief to you who are troubled, and to us as well. This will happen when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven in blazing fire with his powerful angels. He will punish those who do not know God and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. They will be punished with everlasting destruction and shut out from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his might on the day he comes to be glorified in his holy people and to be marveled at among all those who have believed. This includes you, because you believed our testimony to you.”(2 Thessalonians 1:6-10 NIV)

So, as the Lord's redeemed and precious possession, saved in His grace by faith, He reminds us: “Turn away from evil and do good; so shall you dwell forever. For the Lord loves justice; he will not forsake his saints. They are preserved forever, but the children of the wicked shall be cut off. The righteous shall inherit the land and dwell upon it forever.” (Psalm 37:27-29 ESV)

And I say, AMEN!
