Proverbs 22:8
He that soweth iniquity shall reap vanity: and the rod of his anger shall fail.
Those who plant injustice will harvest disaster, and their reign of terror will come to an end. (NLT)
Injustice has been part of our world since the first act of iniquity in the Garden of Eden. The simple act of listening to the wrong voice, resulted in God being disobeyed and had terrible consequences. Adam and Eve were removed from the perfection of the Garden to make their way in a world dirtied by sin. A world in which iniquity and injustice multiplied to the point where we find ourselves today.
But it will end. The reign of terror that began in Genesis will end in Revelation when our Lord Jesus returns. There is a day when He will return and sweep iniquity and injustice aside. He came once. He is coming again. He promised. Hallelujah!
There is a day, that all creation’s waiting for, A day of freedom and liberation for the earth. And on that day The Lord will come to meet His bride, And when we see Him In an instant we’ll be changed. The trumpet sounds And the dead will then be raised By His power, Never to perish again. Once only flesh, Now clothed with immortality; Death has now been Swallowed up in victory. We will meet Him in the air And then we will be like Him, For we will see Him, as He is, Oh yeah! Then all hurt and pain will cease, And we’ll be with Him forever, And in His glory we will live, Oh yeah, oh yeah! So lift your eyes To the things as yet unseen, That will remain now For all eternity. Though trouble’s hard It’s only momentary, And it’s achieving Our future glory. (Phatfish)
