Justice and righteous living

I want to see a mighty flood of justice, an endless river of righteous living. ~ Amos 5:24 (NLT)

The one who supplies seed for planting and bread for eating will supply and multiply your seed and will increase your crop, which is righteousness. ~ 2 Corinthians 9:10 (CEB)

KEY IDEA:
The Lord desires a huge crop of right-living -- of justice.
PRAYER:
Lord, you are the source of all that is right and just. If there is any hope for an endless flow of justice and righteous living I know that it will have to come from you. I know, though, that I try to make these things happen on my own. And then I take pride in all my feeble successes. Stop me from drifting that direction. I want to have a full crop and I need the righteousness of Christ Jesus to fertilize the crop. Amen.
