"Not consistent" (Mark 14:56)
Father,
You are the Rock! Your work
is perfect, for all Your ways are just. You are a God of faithfulness and
without injustice, righteous and upright are You. You do not act wickedly. The
Almighty will not pervert justice. You love righteousness and justice. The
earth is full of Your lovingkindness. And Your lovingkindness is better than
life.
You love justice, and You do
not forsake Your godly ones. Now, will You not bring about justice for Your
elect who cry to You day and night, and will You delay long over them? Jesus
said that You will bring about justice for them quickly. When the Son of Man
comes, may He find faith on the earth. In Jesus’ Name I pray, Amen.
