"The King is mighty, He loves justice - You have established equity." Psalm 99:4
God's justice system, His mishpat, operates on a different level than man's system. When he Child was born and the Son was given, the government was placed upon His shoulders. The Lord has the final say in matters of His justice.
With Bibles open and smiles of surprise that an unexpected visitor had arrived, three women sat with me in a small side room on Death Row. I asked them what their most important prayer need was at the moment; their answers were: favor, prayer for a brother and a son, and for the truth and justice to come out. We talked about ways to pray that could open up heaven for God's answers to be released. Prayers of thanksgiving, repentance, prayers for those in authority, treading prayers, and prayers of intercession.
The women were ready to try some 21 day prayer challenges. Our two hours felt like two minutes. I was led out as I was led in and behind me I could hear the cell doors shut each woman back in her cell. May the Lord be with each of these women as they wait and may His justice prevail.
