70 Days – Day 9

To the Righteous Remnant

Day 9
RESTORING THE FOUNDATION OF RIGHTEOUSNESS AND JUSTICE

To the Remnant Rising,

“For the Lord will not reject his people; he will never forsake his inheritance.  Judgment will again be founded on righteousness, and all the upright in heart will follow it.”(Psalm 94:14-15; NIV)

“A shoot will come up from the stump of Jesse; from his roots a Branch will bear fruit. The Spirit of the Lord will rest on him — the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the Spirit of counsel and of power, the Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord — and he will delight in the fear of the Lord. He will not judge by what he sees with his eyes, or decide by what he hears with his ears; but with righteousness he will judge the needy, with justice he will give decisions for the poor of the earth.He will strike the earth with the rod of his mouth; with the breath of his lips he will slay the wicked. Righteousness will be his belt and faithfulness the sash around his waist.” (Isaiah 11:1-5; NIV)

“Righteousness and justice are the foundation of your throne; love and faithfulness go before you.” (Psalm 89:14; NIV)

We can stand before the Lord with confident assurance that he will never leave us or forsake us.  We are his people and he is our faithful God. He never makes decisions or judgments by mere appearance. He always judges righteously and with justice. Love and faithfulness go before the Lord!

It is the desire of our Righteous Judge to restore the foundation of His righteousness and justice in this nation. He has raised up a righteous remnant to stand before him for this very purpose.
