We can trust God with Injustice, because God is the God of Vengeance.
No, that’s the God of the Old Testament
- Malachi 3:6 – I the Lord do not change - also Will a man rob God?
- Hebrews 13:8 – the Lord is the same yesterday, today and forever
No, you say, God is the God of Love. Yes, and more...
- Nahum 1:2 – the Lord is Jealous, avenging, angry…and Good
- Deut. 32:35 – the Song of Moses
- Deut. 32:41 – the Song of Moses
- Deut. 32:43 – the Song of Moses
- Ps. 58:10 – Strong word picture – bathe their feet in the blood of the wicked
- Ps. 94:1-2
- Is. 35:4 – he will come with vengeance and divine retribution
- Romans 12:17-21 – Vengeance is mine. I will repay. Make room for God’s wrath.
- Titus 2:7-8 – let those who oppose you be ashamed…
Vindictive Vengeance – attitude
Lev. 19:18 - Do not seek revenge (action ) or bear a grudge (feelings)
God has a plan
It’s God’s prerogative
Will a man rob God? If you take revenge or harbor vengeance in your heart…you rob God of what is His…Vengeance is MINE says the Lord.
Tomorrow is the day of justice.
Today is the day of mercy.
Matt. 5:7 – Blessed are the merciful for they will be shown mercy – axiomatic
James 2:12-13 – judgment without mercy to anyone who has not been merciful.
God will avenge at the Best Time. There is a day coming and it is circled in red….the day of vengeance the day of the Lord.
Rev. 14:17 – the wine press of God’s wrath
2 Thess. 1:6 – not two God’s – I the Lord do not change
Feel like you have suffered injustice? Take your injustice to the foot of the cross and see how small it is compared to the injustice Jesus suffered because of your sin.
