Scripture:
James 2: 13 "For judgment will be merciless to one who has shown no mercy; mercy triumphs over judgment" (NASB)
Observation:
Do let hypocrisy and personal ego get away by putting ourselves higher than any other citizen out there. All individuals are citizen of God, hence we are to be merciful and stop judging. For mercy will overcome harsh acts.
Application:
We are no higher than God to judge anyone. Regardless of what the circumstances can be. Everyone is children and citizens of God, hence, we have no right or higher power to judge his citizens. We need to learn to really keep the actions of what our tongue preach. Regardless the pain and suffering others bring, show mercy, as God will be the judge of my character and actions. Do not let my personal ego take over and judge and resolve the situation, let me judge those base on the rules that God has set for us, which set us free. Be kind to those who does not bring kindness, for kindness goes long way.
Prayer:
Heavenly Father, give me to heart to be grateful and humbled by your circumstances. Father you are the ultimate judge, help me and guide me to be kind and forgiving of those who have brought pain and suffering. Help me to be merciful, and I lift them up to you, that you will heal them and guide them to your words and wisdom. Father I pray you will help me to focus my priority on teachings and rules as servant. Father give me the strength and wisdom to strong and let your mercy take over. In your name amen.
