“And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, Avenge the children of Israel of the Midianites: afterward shalt thou be gathered unto thy people.”
Numbers 31:1-2 KJV
This was the last thing Moses was asked to do as God spoke to him: “Avenge the People of Israel on the Midianites. Afterward you will go to be with your dead ancestors.” Vengeance belongs to the LORD, and in the new covenant, Paul says, “Beloved, don’t be obsessed with taking revenge, but leave that to God’s righteous justice.” When we see injustice happening, let’s believe Jesus when He says, “Don’t you know that God, the True Judge, will grant justice to all His chosen ones who cry out to Him night and day? He will pour out His Spirit upon them. He will not delay to answer you and give you what you ask for. God will give swift justice to those who don’t give up. So be ever praying, ever expecting, in the same way as the widow. Even so, when the Son of Man comes back, will He find this kind of undying faith on earth?” When we see corruption, injustice, unrighteousness and evil happening, instead of being overwhelmed, seek the LORD, He will avenge. Amen!
