Subject: What's the proper response to injustice? |
Bible Note: Aixen - "But there are those who guard the gates and choose the players, and injustice occurs when some are denied opportunity." This has happened to me personally, so I know first hand how this "feels." Yet, I am convinced that God can use this for His glory, even though I'm not sure what consequence it will bring to those who have chosen to limit Him. imo, you have identified a tool of Satan in our midst. He doesn't have to work very hard to limit the Holy Spirit when our church leaders are doing the work for him. Perhaps this is a call of God to us as the body to be in constant prayer for those He has placed in authority over us, to pray that they will be obedient to their charge to "set in order the things that were lacking” (Titus 1:5).
