PROVERBS 16

1 The preparation of the heart of man, and the answer of his tongue, are from the LORD.

2 The ways of a man may be clean in his own eyes, but the LORD weighs the spirit.

3 Commit your works to the LORD that your thoughts may be established.

4 The LORD has made all things to answer the wicked in the day of evil.

5 The proud in heart is an abomination to the LORD, though hand in hand they will not be guiltless.

6 By mercy and truth iniquity is purged, and the fear of the LORD is to depart from evil.

7 When a man’s ways please the LORD, his enemies will recompense him.

8 Better is a little with righteousness, than the great revenue of those who are not right.

9 A man’s heart devises his ways, but it’s the LORD that directs his steps.

10 A divine sentence is on the lips of a king; his mouth transgresses not in judgment.

11 A righteous weight is the balance of the LORD, and to weigh each bag is his work.

12 It is an abomination when kings commit wickedness: for thrones are established by righteousness.

13 Righteous lips are the delight of kings, and they love the one that speaks right.

14 The wrath of a king is a messenger of death, but a wise man pacifies it.

15 The light of the king’s countenance is life; and his delight as a cloud of latter rain.

16 It is good to own wisdom, like gold, and to own discernment like chosen silver.

17 The highway of the right is to depart from evil, for he that keeps his way preserves his soul.

18 Pride before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.

19 It is good to be humble in spirit with the meek and poor, than to divide spoil with the proud.

20 May you prosper in every matter and find good. Trust in the LORD and be happy.

21 The wise in heart are called prudent, and the sweetness of their lips increases learning.

22 Understanding is a wellspring of life to its owners, but instruction to fools is folly.

23 The heart of the wise prospers, and his mouth adds learning to his lips.

24 Pleasant words are as a honeycomb: sweet to the soul, and health to the bones.

25 There is a way that is right to a man, but the end of that way is death.

26 He that labors, labors for that which his mouth craves.

27 An ungodly man digs up evil: his lips burn with fire.

28 A froward man sows strife, and a whisperer separates friends.

29 A violent man that entices his neighbor will lead him into the way that is not good.

30 They fasten their eyes to devise froward things, and with moving lips they bring evil to pass.

31 The elderly is a crown of glory if it be found in the way of righteousness.

32 He who is slow to anger is better than the mighty, and he that rules his spirit than he that takes a city.

33 The lot is cast into the lap, but justice is of the LORD.

My Thoughts:

Justice for everyone seems so surreal in a world where criminals are presumed innocent until proven guilty. How can it be that they are caught in the act of violence, theft, and murder, and yet the news refrains from calling them rapist, thieves, or robbers? The focus shifts from the crime to the mental health issues they have for not taking their happy pills, or the childhood drama they suffered from growing up poor and in a bad neighborhood. All the while, the victims are disregarded, and justice falls to the street.

Lawyers and judges who have the knowledge and understanding are the cause of unjust weights and balances. Yet they remain silent when the public blames the Police for not being aggressive enough or too aggressive. How can you catch a thief, arrest a killer, and take out a terrorist if they are presumed innocent UNTIL the court of law decides that?  What an insult to mankind when they are constantly told they are not educated enough to decide what’s right or wrong unless a professional expert tells them it is right or wrong. A man who steals is a thief, a man who kills is a murderer, and a woman who lies under oath is a liar who needs to get the same sentence that a man would have gotten for the crime she accused him of, which he never did.  

Lady Justice

Lady Justice is a beautiful women. She represents the courts of the land: Her blindfold: Represents impartiality, meaning justice should be blind to wealth, power, or status. Her scales: Symbolize the fair and equal weighing of evidence and competing claims. And her sword: Stands for authority, order, and the final power of reason and law.

When justice is served, she judges without respect of persons regardless of class, status, or wealth. But the wealthy bribed her with gifts and luxury that corrupted her heart. Therefore, she can no longer see the injustices done to the poor and the needy awho are nd oppressed by the rich and powerful.

Assume a thief stealing is guilty until proven innocent was the norm. Assume a woman killing her three children is guilty as hell, no matter her psycho health analysis should be normal. But because of bitter women falsifying rape cases, corrupt lawyers representing corrupt corporations, and corrupt officials turning a blind eye, justice has been perverted, and justice has fallen to the ground.

Random strangers on Social Media

These men and women are so proud, but the proud in heart is an abomination to the LORD, and though hand in hand they stand together and riot in the streets, they will not be guiltless. A just weight is the Lord’s balance, and it is our responsibility to seek justice for everyone.

There is a way that is right to a man, but the end of that way is death. Be careful who you like and approve off on social media. Many do not have a heart for God, justice, or the mind of Christ to know truth from deception. Their justice is an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth, but Jesus came and said, the same balance scale for justice you use will be used for you. It is good to want justice for everyone, but we ought to first remove the plank from our eye before we remove the splinter from another’s eye. Therefore is it dangerous for your soul to seek guidance from philosophers or mediums that wants to be your guide for they lack the knowledge that could save your life. Ans often when people reject God, God gives them over to a debased mindset no matter how smart or intelligent they seem. And above all avoid following strangers and random influencers just for their popularity on Instagram, Facebook, Tiktok, or Twitter.

Getting Justice Takes Persistence

Seek justice for everyone, especially for the widows and orphans. Jesus told a parable of a persistent widow who took her case before an unjust judge and said: Now, there was a widow in that city; and she came unto him, saying, Avenge me of mine adversary. And he would not for a while: but afterward he said within himself, Though I fear not God, nor regard man; Yet because this widow troubles me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she wearies me out.”

Now Jesus told this lesson not to call out the corrupt judge who had no care for anyone in this world, not even fear for God. But he did highlight a story much more glorious. She got justice for her situation. But it did not happen overnight or after trying once or twice. No, this woman was persistent, and finally justice was served by the one who had power and authority. Her story can be your story when you face harassment, persecution, or injustice. Look at the judge; he was not a good person. She didn’t get justice because he loved justice. No, she got justice because she wanted it. This world is full of people looking and longing for justice. It may be days, months, and even years before some get what they wanted. Then comes the release. Justice is sweet to the soul, and health to the bones. YouTube is full of heartwarming stories like this. A just balance belongs to the Lord. Don’t give up. Keep hoping, keep praying, and keep trusting God for justice for everyone.

So the central theme is persistent prayer, perseverance, and continuing to seek justice without giving up.
