Guardian of Justice

“He stores up sound wisdom for the upright; he is a shield to those who walk in integrity, guarding the paths of justice and watching over the way of his saints.” Proverbs 2:7-8

God is the guardian of Justice.
Sometimes, I’d fear that we as black people will never receive the justice we deserve.
But here, I see in the word – God guards the paths of justice.
He makes sure justice is served.
Then I remember the areas in history where God made sure justice was served.

Let us take a look at some of the different points in history where God ensured justice was served.
The full control of the Catholic Church over the people. At one time, only they had access to the word of God, but then came the Reformation.
There was slavery, but then came the Emancipation Proclamation.
There was segregation in the US, but then came the Civil Rights Movement and one more injustice was lifted.

What’s my point?
My point is that Reparations will be granted because God guards the paths to Justice.
My hope is maximized because through these words and happenings, I see that God is Faithful.
He is always watching the way of His people.
For me, that means we are not left to our vices.
We are not left to go astray.
My heart wants to say why everyone, as the church lives properly, but Israel was the example for me – A new generation entered the Promised Land, proving the everlasting faithfulness of God.
I thank you, Father. I believe you.
