Our Great Judge

 Isaiah 33:22

Our text passage identifies God in three positions as our King, our Judge and our Lawgiver.

We will be focusing on God being our Judge in this message.

The Lord is the Judge of all creation.

Genesis 18:25

Judges are needed , respected and valued in every society.

As long as they do not act beneath their office they are revered as dignitaries whose wisdom, insight, training and ruling is to be upheld and followed.

Judges can determine the future and penalty of wrong doers.

The favor and mercy of a judge is a beautiful thing while the anger and judgement of a judge is a scary thing.

Ezekiel 7:8

The scripture shows us people God raised up as judges at various times over His people- Moses, Gideon, Deborah, Samson, Jephthah, Barak, Eli, Abimelech, Joshua, Tola etc.

It is important judges are incorruptible.

Proverbs 17:23

One of the offices Jesus Christ occupies is that of the Judge.

He is the Judge over His people.

This is good news because He is an incorruptible Judge, a Judge who brings forth justice in the life and affairs of His people.

He is our merciful Judge who doesn't wish to rule against us for He doesn't want us to perish.

John 3:16

He is our great Judge who has the final words on all matters that concern our lives.

Satan the enemy doesn't have the final word concerning your affairs or life, the great Judge does.

Unfavorable situations or circumstances should not have the final 'word' concerning you.

Past unpleasant experiences should not have the final word over us.

No man should and no man can determine our final outcome except God and ourselves.

No enemy, known and unknown , human or spirit should determine how far you go or what your limits are.

The only person who has that kind of authority over us is our great Judge- Jesus Christ.

Revelation 22:13

It was in the office of a judge Jesus was functioning when the woman caught in the act of adultery was presented before Him.

John 8:3-11

Caught in what would be a tight spot for many other men, Jesus in wisdom got out of it and set the woman free from her accusers who wanted to stone her to death.

To judge rightly and righteously, wisdom is needed and Jesus has been made wisdom and righteousness.

1 Corinthians 1:30

Solomon the king functioned in the office of a judge when he judged two women feuding over a baby.

He judged excellently and brought forth justice, his fear spread throughout the land for God's wisdom was at work in him.

1 kings 3:16-28

Our great Judge is One who is greater than Solomon, He will judge through you and judge in your favor, bringing forth justice!

Matthew 12:42

Your Father Hears

Matthew 6:5,6 Prayer should be directed to the Father. Jesus showed this when He taught His disciples the Lord's prayer. It should be a great comfort to you to know that the creator and God of all hears you when you pray. This should encourage you to pray and keep praying. In our day to day relationships with people our communication will reduce towards those who don't pay attention when we're talking to them. The good thing about God is that He is never distracted. Know you have His attention when you pray . He can be communicated with. He hears, He created the ears. Psalm 94:9 Jesus encouraged prayer. Matthew 26:40 Jesus taught prayer. Luke 11:1,2 If Jesus prayed, you will need to pray. Why Should You Pray? *Pray because prayer brings God's intervention. Isaiah 38:5,6 *Pray because that's how you are authorized to communicate with God. 1 Thessalonians 15:16-18 *Pray because it is a major way of birthing God's will on earth. 1 Kings 18...

Out Of The Ashes

Isaiah 61:3 Ashes are not seen as useful substances. Ashes are waste that's thrown away. Ashes are what is left after a substance is burnt out. Your life may seem like ashes right now but something good and beautiful can come out of it when it's given to God. You may feel like an ash yourself. You may be feeling burnt out from unpleasant experiences of the past, the previous week, the last Month , or the the last year and life's battles may have left you burnt out. Know that out of your ashes can come beauty! God is the one who gives us beauty for ashes. God can make you and your life beautiful! Don't make the ashes your permanent state. God can make your season of ashes work out into a season of glory for you. Romans 8:28 The phoenix is a mystical and fictional bird that burns out after living for about six centuries. After burning itself out it rises from it's ashes renewed, youthful and revitalized to live through another life cycle. Like the p...
