DAILY DEVOTIONAL OF THE
CHURCH OF NIGERIA (ANGLICAN COMMUNION)
DATE: WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 2025
TOPIC: WICKED LEADERSHIP
10:1. “Woe to those who decree unrighteous decrees, Who write misfortune, [Which] they have prescribed
10:2. To rob the needy of justice, And to take what is right from the poor of My people, That widows may be their prey, And [that] they may rob the fatherless.
10:3. What will you do in the day of punishment, And in the desolation [which] will come from afar? To whom will you flee for help? And where will you leave your glory?
10:4. Without Me they shall bow down among the prisoners, And they shall fall among the slain.” For all this His anger is not turned away, But His hand [is] stretched out still.
THE MESSAGE:
The scripture intimated us that there is no power but of God; the powers that be were ordained of God (Romans 13:15). Using our God-given position of authority to do evil to our subjects, especially the less-privileged, is evil (verses 1-2). Today, such a lifestyle is very common among our political, communal and even Church leaders. Some Church leaders sometimes join to administer injustice in order to please or find favour from privileged individuals. However, we should also know that these less-privileged ones have a God who hears them when they call (Deuteronomy 15:9; Proverbs 14:31).
Proverbs 22:9 instructs us to be generous and share our food with the poor. When we do this, we shame the wicked in their acts. Remember that the Lord has placed you in charge of the place you find yourself. So, practise a Christianity that is faultless (James 1:27). Be mindful also of the consequences awaiting those who engage in wicked lifestyles (verses 3-4) as the day of reckoning will definitely come. Brighten the corner where you are!
PRAYER: Faithful God, give us Godly men and women into our positions of authority, Amen
