Proverbs 24:23-25 When God Says...I Say, AMEN!

When God Says…

“These things also belong to the wise: It is not good to show partiality in judgment. He who says to the wicked, “You are righteous,” Him the people will curse; Nations will abhor him. But those who rebuke the wicked will have delight, And a good blessing will come upon them.” (Proverbs 24:23-25 NKJV)

Partiality is frowned upon. Showing bias or prejudice for someone in particular - favoritism is not in sync with the Lord's way. Treating someone who has done wrong with partiality is an injustice - to the offender who is being shown preference, to the victims of the offense and to the society as a whole.

When we start calling wrong things right, and right things wrong, that would be total corruption of conscience. Sadly, that's what is happening in this great country, at its present state, reaching the highest echelon of influence. This nation's sense of judgement is rotting to the core in many levels and sectors. Hence, life becomes a living hell of torment for many, especially the helpless and the innocents. Absence of peace is emerging. And, that's not the kind of living God has for us. The reason He came and gave us the way to live in His grace and truth. These, we apply to deal with both the sinner and the saint. And, He calls us to get hold of the handle of wisdom in our choices for good judgement and decision making.

Life of blessings we will have when we abide in His Word. We will be reminded in our day-to-day conduct of living. We make life-changing calls neither to condemn nor to pander. We stand counseled by the Words of God to invoke correction and redirection, for those who need it, towards a righteous living. We affirm to edify those who do their life by grace through faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. As Apostle Paul exhorted Timothy, we are as well. It is written: “But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have firmly believed, knowing from whom you learned it and how from childhood you have been acquainted with the sacred writings, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, equipped for every good work.” (2 Timothy 3:14-17 ESV)

And I Say, AMEN!
