Ps 58:11
So that
a man shall say, Verily there is a reward for the righteous: verily he is a God
that judgeth in the earth.
Most of us are
well aware that God will judge in the heavens.
We consider the Great White Throne Judgment as well as the Bema Seat
where our God has every right to judge those outside of Christ and those in
Him. He will judge those who stand in
their own righteousness and unfit to enter into His kingdom and those who are
clothed in Christ’s righteousness, judgment will be given based on faithfulness
resulting in placement within His kingdom.
This verse reminds us that our God not only will judge then, but
currently judges here, on this earth.
This means that His law is in place and He will uphold His law and deal
with those who disregard or refuse to obey.
God is not mocked. When any of
us, believer or non-believer acts in contrast to His law, judgment will be
experienced in one way or another because He is the judge of the earth. We may escape an eternal judgment. We may experience His mercy within that
judgment here, but He is actively involved in the matters of our day to day
lives here on this earth. If you believe
you have been wronged, the Lord will judge.
You forgive. Let Him do the legal
end of things. If you have done wrong,
apologize to the person and approach the judge, knowing He judges righteously
and with mercy!
