They Hurt You… God Saw Everything | The Supreme Court of Heaven
GOD SAW EVERYTHING | The Supreme Court of Heaven
What do you do when someone hurts you, betrays you, lies about you, falsely accuses you, or treats you unfairly?
Our natural reaction is often to defend ourselves, tell our side, expose what happened, or make sure the other person doesn't “get away with it.” But the Word of God gives us another way.
In this message, we begin a study of what Pastor Robert McLaughlin called The Supreme Court of Heaven: the biblical principle of turning our case over to the perfect justice of God.
God does not minimize evil, and grace does not mean pretending that what happened was okay. But when someone has genuinely wronged us, we do not have to become their judge. There is already a Judge in Heaven who knows every single fact.
We’ll look at what Scripture teaches about injustice, bitterness, revenge, suffering, and the danger of allowing someone else's wrongdoing to begin controlling our own soul. The original injustice may belong to them, but how we respond belongs to us.
Romans 12 tells us, “Never take your own revenge… ‘Vengeance is Mine, I will repay,’ says the Lord.” In other words, God says: Give Me the case. You don't have to prosecute it, sentence the person, or spend your life trying to convince everyone else of your side.
We’ll also see why doctrine learned today prepares us for the adversity of tomorrow, why God's character does not change when our circumstances hurt, and how Jesus Christ Himself responded when He was betrayed, falsely accused, mocked, rejected, and crucified: He kept entrusting Himself to the One who judges righteously.
Sometimes spiritual maturity comes down to being able to say:
God saw it.
God knows the truth.
God knows every detail.
I don't have to carry the case anymore.
I can give it to Him.
Join us as we study The Supreme Court of Heaven and learn how to stop allowing what someone did to us to determine what happens inside of us.
