God delegates authority, giving us responsibility to seek justice and righteousness for people in His Name. Such a person should be prompt in righteousness.</div> <div> </div> <div><strong>Application<br /></strong>I want to represent the Lord faithfully in everything. Though my intentions are good, I am not <u>prompt</u>.</div> <div> </div> <div><strong>Prayer</strong><br />Lord Jesus, I hear the phrase "be prompt in righteousness" as a correction and command from You. Today I will look for opportunities to obey and act promptly.</div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8790942064998826794-5461856595904292489?l=livingwaylr.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Living Wayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04930344244615711437noreply@blogger.com0
