Psalm 58 verse 1 (NIV)
Do you rulers indeed speak justly?
Do you judge people with equity?
John Chapter 7 verse 4 (NIV)
“Stop judging by mere appearances, but instead judge correctly.”
It would be easy to apply the first verse of Psalm 58 to the recent election results released yesterday wouldn’t it? But I’m not sure I can level it just at our new MSP’s and others in government. It also applies to me and to my attitude towards those in authority. Jesus was very clear on what our attitude should be, and so prayerfully may it be so in every area of our lives.
Dear Lord, Lead me by Your Spirit to judge correctly on all things. I ask in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
