June 8th -- Isaiah 32
The Work of Righteousness
Poverty and destitution springing from man's selfishness and misrule, will vanish under Christ's reign. The burdens of past wars and preparations for possible future wars, will no longer cast their shadows on the lives of men. There will be no need for armies and navies, for guns and armaments by which nations today maintain their possessions and preserve their ways of life. Christ will be supreme. Unerring justice and swift judgment by omnipotent power will teach men the folly of disobedience. Jesus and his co-rulers will direct men: "This is the way, walk ye in it" (Isaiah 30:21), and will lead them in right paths. When this king reigns in righteousness and his princes rule in judgment "...the work of righteousness shall be peace: and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever" (Isaiah 32:1 and 17).
John Carter, God's Way, pages 168-169
