God's Justice and Mercy 0:02 We wanna honor God because He sees everything.0:10 You were born with a plan and a purpose. He's the God of all things possible. He's the God of all0:22 miracles.0:52 Welcome to Grace Grace with Naina Michelle.0:55 I'm Michelle Humphries. And I am Naina Keegan. Welcome to the broadcast today. Good news today. We're gonna talk about how God is a God of justice. And sometimes it just may not1:07 seem that way. Sometimes it seems and and even in the world today and in our nation today, it seems like maybe the devil's winning. Maybe he's got the upper hand. It seems like that a lot lately. But, you know, he may be1:18 winning some battles, but God wins the war because he is a just God. And there's a scripture that says that God is a just God and he settles and solves the1:30 cases for his people. I mean, isn't that good news? So no matter what you're dealing with, no no matter what's going on in your life, you know, you might be just in such despair over something that's going on, and you1:42 feel like things are so unfair or so unjust. But God has a plan, and he is you know, justice can come swiftly. And, you know, in a split second, he can move1:54 a mountain. He can he could he he can part the Red Sea. What can he not do for you? And so we're gonna talk all about that today. Isn't it good news, Michelle?2:02 And God is a God of justice. I mean, think about Yeah. Like, we we think, well, are they ever going to get paid back for what they've done, for the evil2:14 that they've done? I mean, we have watched in awe for years now, and it just seems like the devil the devil himself is working through these people2:26 in leadership, and they keep crossing a line and crossing a line, and they cross a line. And we're like, god, when? When are you going to take2:38 take them on and and show them justice? And and I I mean and the Bible says, for the word of the Lord is upright, and all his work is done in faithfulness. And in2:50 Isaiah, it says, for I, the Lord, love justice. So when we think that he's not looking, he's looking, and and and he they will3:02 pay. And and and, honestly, God is also a God of mercy, so we we have to pray, you know, that that the Lord will intervene and that3:14 he will get the justice that that only he can can give. And and we always want mercy for ourselves, so I I'm always careful when I'm3:26 praying for justice because I know that I always want mercy whenever I deserve the worst. Right?3:35 Well, think about Jesus. I mean, there's nobody on the face of the Earth or the planet before or3:47 ever that will have been more mistreated than he was. And yet, Jesus said, forgive them, father. They know not what they do. And and3:59 and, you know, we have to just sort of just think about no matter what we're going through, what our nation is going through, what what we're dealing with, we have to understand that that, you know, a lot of these things4:10 are allowed. I I do feel like it's a judgment really because of basically, if you think about it being so unjust, look what we've done. Look, you know,4:22 the bible He's4:23 a prayer out of schools and now look at the schools.4:25 He says he's coming to judge the church first and and, you know, here we are. You know, we've we've we've allowed all these atrocities to happen to our children. We've got all this pedophilia happening. We4:37 have sex trafficking. We have missing children. We have fentanyl and all these things, wide open borders with with I mean, there were walls all over in in in4:49 the bible and and and that they guarded their their their areas and their towns. And, you know, there's and we've allowed these people to come in and and rape and plunder and kill and steal and bring drugs and5:01 all these things. We have we have, you know, where they're they're infiltrating our schools with drag queen story house. They're bringing all these, you know, we we have we have religions and ideologies that5:12 literally hate Christians, and they're they're they're allowed to be in our nation, and they're and antisemitism. And and, you know, and the Bible talks about that if you if you bless5:24 Israel, you'll be a nation that's blessed. But if you if you don't, if you curse Israel, you'll be a nation that's cursed. And so if you look at some of the judgment and some of the things that we are dealing with, you5:35 know, it's like we we shouldn't be surprised by the things that we are going through. We shouldn't be surprised by these things because because we've literally sort of invited these things in to happen to us.5:46 But God will bring justice, and it will come swiftly. And I know the Lord himself told me in prayer time that he is about to do something in our5:58 day that we wouldn't believe even if we were told. So even though we can't see things right now, we have to keep praying. Say, I thank you, Lord, that you know about this. I thank you, Lord, that you're gonna do6:09 something about this or that or whatever the case may be. And we're gonna see him move. And I I believe that that the how the Bible talks about it in times, which there are so many signs of that right6:21 now, that that what does God say about that? That his glory will fill the earth, that he will pour his spirit out on all flesh because people will will run to the Lord because there's gonna be so much6:32 shaking. And I think we're seeing those birth pains starting. Don't you believe right now?6:36 Oh, my goodness. Yes. And and I think about, like, when whenever we do see, you know, some of these, children come out of sex trafficking, and and I do6:48 believe we're gonna see that.6:49 Yes. We are. Yes. I do. Delivered. I do6:52 believe that they're gonna be delivered and set free. Yes. That God is gonna set them free because you think, how, God, could you ever, you know, bring the justice? I mean, you just7:04 think, good grief, these poor children, you know, that are in in trafficking, that are being trafficked, that are living in these places where7:16 day in, day out, they are suffering all day long. What must they think? Think about this. I mean, oh my goodness. It landed on my7:28 We have a7:29 fly on the set. Fly in the room. Yes. We just Naina said7:32 it's a no fly zone, but apparently, it isn't. So we I I we gotta get rid of this fly. And so Keep praying. If 1 of us sees it and can kill it,7:42 it's too see, like, a sudden slap movement out here that you know what's going on. So Exactly.7:48 I don't know how it got in here. We're in the middle of a giant sanctuary. So So7:52 Well but you know what? That's the thing we we we have to remember. I know that some of the injustices that I have felt like I was really going through in my life, you know, you I've talked about a divorce that I went8:04 through that, through betrayal. And I know, you know, we have gone through things ever since we were children and we we felt like that things were maybe, you know, not fair, not just. But all8:16 I know is that God was with me the whole time. He was with me, you know, every trial, I like to say, has a first day and a last day, but God and his mercy and8:28 justice is there every day and through it all. And so so many of the things that we deal with and go through are really, you know, us it gives8:40 us a chance really to see the faithfulness of God and to see how much he loves us and how much through his justice and mercy can restore us. So sometimes, you know, we're not seeing8:51 things happen like immediately, but we look back on those times and I look at where my life is now and I see how God really did restore me in every way. I mean, I have an amazing husband9:03 now, and I, you know, I I my family's blessed, and I I see these things, that that God has brought us through and delivered us from these these things. And now, you know, I I saw9:15 his justice and his mercy towards me in in in those regards. And and that's, you know, that's the thing we always have to hold on because I know we want everything instant instant society,9:27 but God is always gonna restore. But we're gonna talk more about that when we come right back. Stay right there. We're watching Grace Grace with Nina and Michelle.9:35 Hello, everyone.

So so we're it's a struggle. So but, anyway, we're laughing. The struggle is real. The10:47 struggle is real. But, hey, God is a just God, and he's gonna pay us back for this fly shenanigans.10:53 We each have our own self made flyswatters ready to go. AKA notes.10:59 I I So11:00 We can we can do this.11:01 Night11:01 night night night night night night night night night night night night night night night night night night night night night night night night night night night night night night night night night night night night11:02 night night night night night night night night night night11:02 night night11:02 night night night night night night night night11:03 night night night11:03 night night night night night.11:03 So, night we have to just remember that, you know, like, if you think about, when we want all this justice immediately and we wanna see things happen immediately with all that's going on, you know, I I think11:15 back about, like, how many times in the bible people actually did not get what they deserved. Like, you know, when you think about, like, Adam and Eve, he was still so merciful to them. Right? He, you know, he he11:27 had said that that would kill them, right, right, if they ate that. But it's like he literally I mean, of course, they had there was a judgment and they had a consequence for their disobedience, but they didn't die. And,11:38 you know, he allowed them to live. And you think about the Israelites, like, over and over again, my goodness. Like, how how For years. They saw Jesus or God do the most11:49 miraculous things in their lives over and over again, like water, you know, manna from heaven, the Red Sea, and yet still grumbled, complained, murmured, fall fine. And yet, you know,12:01 and and he kept he still took care of them. They did not go see the promised land. They didn't get to enter that. So that was the consequence that they had, but God took care of them. They were they were12:13 without need. I mean, their shoes didn't even wear out.12:16 So he had mercy. He did have mercy. And yet, they still didn't get to go to the promised land, so there was justice in spite of it all. Yeah. You know, so it's it's it's, it's a high price not to go into the promised12:28 land. Yeah.12:28 Think about and that was only supposed to be an 11 day trek. Think about you would have gotten to spend without your grumbling, fault finding, and complaining. You would have got to spend 40 years in a promised land.12:40 Land of milk and honey.12:41 And instead, you you know, so so a lot of times when we get into an agreement with the news of the day and the evil stories and the things that are happening, and it's so hard12:53 to not go, why isn't somebody doing something about this? Where's our FBI now? Where's our our attorney general? Where's everybody? Why why aren't we seeing all these things coming, into play now? And13:05 and, I would I would just, like, caution people to say, stop agreeing with the devil and start saying, I thank you, Lord, that you are on top of this. I thank you, God, that you are gonna show us all these things13:17 are gonna come to light, that you're gonna bring justice in these situations. And when we just start praying instead of really complaining, because God knows what he's doing. Even though, you know, we wanna see13:28 things so quickly, he absolutely knows what's happening. And, you know, we think about how even the presidency this time, you know, it was, you know,13:40 basically everybody said he would never get back in, president Trump. And yet, you know, God was merciful because he is pro America, and he13:52 is praying in the White House, and there is some powerful prayer warriors around him. And he is seeking the Lord, and we we we know people who who actually know he's saved and truly14:03 saved. And so we know that God is going to use him in this difficult time. And if if that wasn't the case, the devil wouldn't be trying to trying to come against everything he does on a daily basis.14:15 Well, I I love the scripture in Micah 6 8, and it says14:20 That's a good 1.14:20 It says, oh, man, what is good? And what does the Lord require of you? Ask yourself that question. What does the Lord require of you? It says, but to do justice,14:32 to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God. So justice then kindness and humility. Yes. Think about that. Because you don't think about justice14:44 and kindness. Right? Most of the time when we think of justice, we think, get them, god. Go get them. You know? I think about, like, Saul, king Saul. You know, he14:56 was trying to kill David on the daily. David ran from Saul all those years. Think about that. And yet would not even he felt convicted after15:07 cutting his garment. When he had him, he he could've killed Saul, but he he chose not to cut his garment and then felt guilty about that. Now think about the justice. Here he is15:19 tormenting. The I mean, can you imagine having a stalker that is king? And and so Saul is constantly after him. And think about all the prayers David15:31 prayed in Psalms, crying out to God, talking to God about these things, and yet God was merciful trying to probably the Bible says15:43 it's the kindness of of the Lord that leads us to repentance. So when we're talking about justice, God is always saying, come on. Do better. You can do this. Turn15:54 around. Repent. And I'm sure he was talking to Saul, wanting him to repent, but Saul had hardened his heart. And so finally, it was the witch of Endor, that Saul16:07 Yeah. Tried to after he he performed some kind of seance to get Samuel up to he didn't want to pray to God, so he he calls on the witch of16:18 Endor in the Old Testament. And I I just find this so fascinating. And and it it's it's Saul trying to get Samuel up out of the grave so he can hear what God said16:30 instead of going to God himself.16:32 Yeah.16:32 You know, you think about David who was a man after God's own heart, and then you've got Saul who could should have really been taken out a long time before, but if if it wasn't for the kindness of God, try16:44 probably trying to get Saul to repent, but he never did. And and and so what was said in that seance or whatever that was, it was basically tomorrow you're gonna16:56 die. So justice finally did happen. David was crowned king, and the Lord required of of David, to be kind and to be just.17:07 Right? And even though he fell fell short, he was always humble enough to go before the Lord and say, god, what do I do next? Yes. And and and he I I just love that about David that17:19 that he walked with justice. He walked with humility, and and he walked in kindness. And so just just remember that when we walk in justice, we also walk in kindness17:31 and mercy after the example of the word. Yeah. And so when we get back, we're gonna talk more about this.Forgiveness and Personal Responsibility 17:38 Hello, everyone. I'm excited to announce the next generation of energy drinks, Rev 7. It has no sugar and no caffeine. Instead, Rev 7 uses go b h17:50 b. Go b h b is 1 of the body's primary ketones, and it provides the most efficient and clean fuel that your body needs.

I drink Rev 7 every day, and I absolutely love it, and so will you.18:38 Welcome back to Grace Grace with Naina and Michelle, and we are talking about God and how just he is. And he is a God of justice. And I know you were just talking about David. And, you know, David18:50 himself, really went through some difficult times, like, where where he himself was not doing the right thing. Like, when when he put the, you know, the hit on Bathsheba's husband and he19:02 had, you know, he was, you19:03 know,19:04 basically sleeping with, you know, his his friend's wife. And so god was so merciful and kind to him. And so, you know, it was good to see that that, you know,19:16 he, David, wasn't, you know, he was in turn. He was he was more merciful and kind. You know, so many times in the bible where I look at some of the stories, like, I am so19:28 all about justice and I look at, like, even Joseph. And he was so nice to his brothers after, you know, he was in prison for all these years and they threw him in a pit. They thought he was dead. They left him there to19:39 die. And yet, you know, he was so merciful and kind to them and he gave them all the stuff they need, the food and everything they needed and all of that. And, and I I I look at some of those things and I know19:51 they're to be an example for us and I think, I don't know if I could have done that. Like, you know, but I know you have to. Like, it's, you know, we we are we are called to walk in forgiveness and that is really, you20:02 know, sometimes we can think of that as being an an injustice when we have to forgive, but it really is for our own sake. It really is that that we extend that mercy, even if it's20:13 not, you know, we don't have to have these people who have really abused us in our lives. We don't have to have that. But for our own sake, we can ask the Lord to bless them and to have mercy on them and to help them20:25 to to find their way with the Lord. And that God in his mercy and kindness would find a way that they could be saved or or or or to figure out what what it is that's going on with them that they would20:37 hurt people in the ways that they do. And And and20:39 you think about those people, they may not have gotten their justice on the earth, but they will. It says that it is appointed unto man once to die, and after that face the20:51 judgment. And so Everyone will give20:54 an account.20:55 Will face the Lord, and we want mercy. Right? And we're gonna have it because prior to taking our last breath, we have relied on the blood21:07 of Jesus and and his justice and his mercy. And and the Bible talks about that he is Jehovah Tsidkenu, the Lord is our righteousness. And so even though we deserve a21:19 penalty and we deserve, we've fallen short of the glory of God, and therefore, you know, if if it wouldn't have been for Jesus, then then we would have gone to hell. But we21:30 do have Jesus, and there is a merciful God who has walked the earth as a human. He came down in the flesh, and and he walked it out.21:42 And and on the cross, when he was dying, he said, forgive them, Lord, because they don't understand And a lot of times when, you know,21:54 someone's been abused or someone's been cruel to you or whatever terrible thing that they've done to you, they really didn't understand what they were doing. They were being used by the devil, that it was demonic22:07 assignments against your life. Whatever it was, God is going to get justice. I mean, Nina, have you ever met somebody that when they died, nobody really was that sad? I mean,22:18 seriously, because they were so horrible on the earth, but I always think, what are they experiencing now?22:26 Right? You have to, you know, I mean, you never know, and that's the that's the terrifying part because it's not God's will for any man to perish, and yet many will fall away and and, you know, that that that's22:38 even the elect will be deceived. And so we have to stay in our lane and know that that, you know, we're not we're not to to, you know, continually be victims of abuse or22:50 let people disrespect us or talk to us unkindly. You know, God wants us to know that we're not human doings, we're human beings. And sometimes you have to look at your own reasonings for things, like, do you23:02 ever just think sometimes when you feel like you just don't say no, which is a real answer, and you're constantly giving and doing and doing and giving and and then you sort of23:13 start getting weary in the well doing because you don't feel appreciated or you or you don't you feel like, you're not respected in a way and yet you you keep kind of you you keep kind of23:25 falling for those things and and yet you keep thinking it's gonna be different in some ways. And so at a certain point, you know, God wants us to stand up to those things and and we23:37 we get to be the ones who who are in charge of what we let and allow in our lives. And so, you know, so a lot of times God23:49 is asking you to stand up for some injustices and he's asking you to to just go through his word where it says, like, that we can forgive, but we don't have to24:01 allow that. We're not doormats. We don't have to allow these kinds of things. And that that you get to to dictate basically how you are going to let somebody treat you. And, you know, sometimes24:13 you just say no, you know, I I don't like the way you're talking to me or you don't get to talk to me that way or respect me that or disrespect me that way. And so, you know, we're to be mindful of those kinds of things24:22 too so so that we don't create patterns or whatever as far as, you know, whether it's people in the workplace or you hang out with or even your own family.24:32 That there will be justice. Yeah. There will be justice. So we know that God is a God of justice, and and that's what we're believing. Right? Yes. And so God is gonna take care24:44 of those people that have offended you, whether they're gonna walk through something similar and have the same thing happen. The Bible says that that there's a law of sowing and reaping. Right? And so,24:58 we reap what we sow. And so sometimes because we've sown it, the justice comes back to us. Right? So but let's pray for mercy25:07 Yep.25:08 And that, that God is gonna gonna bring justice to those crisis situations that people are crying out to him for. Father, we thank you. We ask you to,25:19 to to to be a we know that you're a just God. So we pray that you reign justice on the world, Lord. You reign mercy and kindness, Lord, and that, Lord, that we would walk in humility too.25:31 That, father, that we that that you will give us a heart that is right with you, and we ask you for that in Jesus' name. Amen.25:40 Amen. Wow. That went fast today, including our fly Yes. Who has joined us. That's it. So we love you guys so much.
