SERMON OUTLINE

GOD IS JUST

Psalm 146

“Justice without strength is helpless, strength without justice is tyrannical. ... Unable to make what is just strong, we have made what is strong just.”

– Blaise Pascal

What is Justice?

• Biblical

• Hebrew “mishpat” over 200 times in OT. (Psalm 146:7)

• Relational

• Restoration is the goal.

• Vital

• He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the L ord require of you but to do justice , and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God? (Micah 6:8)

• Apolitical

• 3 Do not put your trust in princes , in human beings, who cannot save.

4 When their spirit departs, they return to the ground; on that very day their plans come to nothing. (Psalm 146:3-4)

How to participate in God’s Generous Justice?

Psalm 146:7-9

• Make right

• Give bread

• Set free

• Open eyes

• Lift up

• Love right

• Keep close

• Sustain vulnerable

• Frustrate evil

5 Blessed are those whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the L ord their God. (Psalm 146:5)

Daily Dwell: February 23-March 1

“The Lord watches over the foreigner and sustains the fatherless and the widow…” - Psalm 146:9
