**Prayer Warriors**, let's lift up these urgent needs:
@Dtsuelake's cousin Jack is in critical condition with pneumonia and heart issues. Let's pray for his healing!
For the LORD is our judge, the LORD is our lawgiver, the LORD is our king; he will save us.
—Isaiah 33:22 (KJV)
When we think about God's being our judge, we normally think of falling into judgment. Isaiah reminds us that God's being our judge means that he will be there to judge us based on his will, his rule, and his grace. He is on our side and is looking to save, not condemn. Using the New Testament idiom, when we stand before our Judge we see instead our Father.

Holy and Righteous Judge, I am glad that my fate, my future, and my life is in your hands. I know about your love for me because of the gift of Jesus. I know about your desire to save me because of your loving grace. I know your demand for holiness is met by the sacrifice of your Son. So God, I gladly and willingly trust my life, my soul, and my eternal future to you. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
