Justice

Amos 5:24 (AMP) But let justice run down like waters and righteousness as a mighty and ever-flowing stream.

When we endeavour to control those around us to suit ourselves we are being unjust.

Justice is generous, it flows. It is not alone, righteousness flows with it. The water is clean and pure. Untainted by human intervention.

Justice frees, brings life. Righteousness bring peace.

We interfere when our anxieties, attitudes, fears become involved and then we contrive to contain.

As soon as we contain blackness comes, steel bands arrive, the waters become fetid.

I experience people trying to contain me but my vision empowers me to break out. In containment I hear the mumblings of the dead, I hear the hiss of the snakes.

I cannot contain another because of what I know. Christ came to set people free not bind them, I must do likewise.

As a lead I must lay the foundation and principles and live them myself and draw others to those principles. It must be God's ways not my ways brought about through weakness.

As soon as I hear the snake I repent. I can't give my enemy room, I cannot empower him to destroy. I must bring life. Amen!
