Psalm 82

Psalm 82
God presides in the great assembly;
    he renders judgment among the “gods”:
“How long will you defend the unjust
    and show partiality to the wicked?
Defend the weak and the fatherless;
    uphold the cause of the poor and the oppressed.
Rescue the weak and the needy;
    deliver them from the hand of the wicked.
“The ‘gods’ know nothing, they understand nothing.
    They walk about in darkness;
    all the foundations of the earth are shaken.
“I said, ‘You are “gods”;
    you are all sons of the Most High.’
But you will die like mere mortals;
    you will fall like every other ruler.”
Rise up, O God, judge the earth,

    for all the nations are your inheritance.

There are so many people in this world who need Love. They need comfort and peace. As believers, we must stand firm in Christ and shine His light for the world to see. We must love as He loved us.

We need to be the hands and feet of Jesus; especially now.

So many people in this world look to other means of satisfaction. They look to other gods or other things in life to find fulfillment.

As I shared with you yesterday, I found myself pursuing accomplishments rather than resting in the fulfillment and peace found in Christ. In this busy world, it is easy to fall prey to distraction. It is easy to lose sight of everything we have.

But in the coming days, it will be more important than ever to cling to our inheritance. We need to rise up in Love and share His Hope with the world. We must stand up for the poor and oppressed. We must love as He first loved us.

Everyday, let us be still and abide in His love that we may share it with the world. Let us reflect on His promises and illuminate the world with His Light. Let us show this world the Love of Jesus. Let us be His hands and feet to aid those in need.

Let us love others and show them how dearly they are loved.

Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth. 1 John 3:18
