Justice executed is joy for the righteous but a terror to evildoers – Proverbs 21:15

“When justice is done, it is a joy to the righteous but terror to evildoers,” Proverbs 21:15.

We are indeed crying out for justice for years, Father, now let it be so speedily that the righteous may have joy and evildoers receive the reward for the work of their hands in the name of Jesus, amen.

Luke 18:1-8

The Parable of the Persistent Widow

18 Then He spoke a parable to them, that men always ought to pray and not lose heart, saying: “There was in a certain city a judge who did not fear God nor regard man. Now there was a widow in that city; and she came to him, saying, ‘Get justice for me from my adversary.’ And he would not for a while; but afterward he said within himself, ‘Though I do not fear God nor regard man, yet because this widow troubles me I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me.’ ”

Then the Lord said, “Hear what the unjust judge said. And shall God not avenge His own elect who cry out day and night to Him, though He bears long with them? I tell you that He will avenge them speedily. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will He really find faith on the earth?”
