Psalms 94:21-22 They gather together against the life of the righteous, And condemn innocent blood. But the LORD has been my defense, And my God the rock of my refuge. 

Recently, there have been physical and spiritual attacks against the righteous. Physically, a man attempted to start a race war by murdering nine innocent people in a church. Spiritually, believers are being attacked or mocked based on our beliefs regarding homosexuality. Our beliefs towards homosexuality are being viewed as hatred towards those who choose to live that way, which is untrue.

As we can see, attacks against the righteous have going on since the Bible days. Our hope and our peace is knowing God is our defense. Regardless of the attacks against us, God is our defense. He ensures justice is served. He rights every wrong. We don’t have to do anything in our own strength or walk around with a bad attitude. Continue to walk in love, continue to share the truth in the Word of God, and know that God has got our backs.

Righteous people…don’t be afraid.
