Sing a New Song
Sing to the Lord a new song; sing to the Lord, all the earth.—Psalm 96:1 (NIV)
But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth: with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked.—Isaiah 11:4 (KJV)
In our culture, where so much value is placed on monetary wealth and what it can buy, it’s easy to get caught up in judging others and even ourselves by our bank account. But the Lord’s judgment, unlike the world’s, is fair and just.
Heavenly Father, You are a wonderful God. Guide me to give encouragement to someone who needs a boost up, to hold off on judging by appearances and to simply love one another as You love us.
