Speak Up
8
Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves;
ensure justice for those being crushed.
9
Yes, speak up for the poor and helpless,
and see that they get justice.
In this passage from Proverbs, we see again that God cares deeply for those who cannot help themselves. Those with power—whether kings or anyone with influence or wealth—are given a divine duty to speak up for the poor, needy, and helpless, ensuring they receive justice.
Think about this: Do you use your voice to stand up for those who have none? Do you speak out for the desolate, for those in need of justice, and for the poor and needy around you?
Micah 6:8 reminds us: "He has shown you, O man, what is good. And what does Yahweh require of you, but to act justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God?" It's a call to live out God’s heart for justice, mercy, and humility in our own lives.
