Everyone is talking about Justice Ministry.
Heart of Christ has been succesfully working to rescue and restore the oppressed and to empower justice for 12 years!
What is Justice Ministry?
God is all about justice and it is the second greatest theme in the Bible. Justice is about restoring what is broken and righting what is wrong. The Hebrew word for justice is tzedek, which is translated as righteousness.
The Problem
This world is filled with injustice: the child who has been abused, the woman who is beaten by her husband, the girl who is promised a better life and sold into sex trafficking, the single mother without child support, victims who seek help and are either rejected by authorities or victimized again, corruption and a myriad of other things.
Achieving the Impossible
God called us to come to Honduras (one of the most violent places on earth) in 2005 and opened the doors with authorities in 2005 to create the first ever victims' program in Honduras and then open and run the first ever victims office in Feb. 2006.
HOC has been a leader nationally and internationally in this work to bring justice to those who suffer where justice is almost impossible to achieve. And this year the work is growing even more powerful with the first-ever Justice Center.
But our God is the God of the impossible.
He is the God of hope where there is no hope. Because of this work, thousands have been rescued, restored and have received justice.
The Darkness and Intervention
God is looking for people to stand in the gap.
"I looked for someone among them who would build up the wall and stand before me in the gap on behalf of the land so I would not have to destroy it, but I found no one." Ezekiel 22:30
He is looking for people who have the "heart" of Christ to go into the darkness where no one else wants to go and bring real rescue. . . bring real justice.
He is looking for champions for justice.
"Truth is nowhere to be found, and whoever shuns evil becomes a prey. The Lord looked and was displeased that there was no justice. He saw that there was no one, he was appalled that there was no one to intervene." Isaiah 59-15-16
The Spanish version says God was disgusted. That drives a hard image that our Father in heaven is disgusted that there was no one to intervene.
Are you a Champion for Justice?
Is God calling you to be one who "intervenes"?
Are you called to "Stand in the Gap"?
Are you willing to go into the darkness, where it might be dangerous, and allow God to use you to save a life? Save two lives? A hundred lives?
If we are to love one another as He loves us, then we must stop the suffering and do what we can.
What will you do now?
