Him, being delivered by the determined purpose and foreknowledge of God, you have taken by lawless hands, have crucified, and put to death; God raise Him up again.
Act 2:23-24
Has anybody ever been terribly unfair to you? You must have this verse in you? Have you ever almost destroyed by the ruthless of another? You're not alone.
The greatest offense ever committed against a man was what was done to Jesus by those who opposed Him. They tortured and killed the perfect Son of God. The amazing thing about the mistreatment of Jesus (and you) is the Father's ability to redeem it. You must stand in your faith for your redeemer His Word my Sword.
God is bigger than the wrong men do. Human beings were completely responsible for crucifying the Son of God. "You nailed [Him] to the cross," Peter said. But God was sovereign over even this, and in fact, had planned it before the foundation of the world: Christ was "delivered over by the predetermined plan and foreknowledge of God." Do you see how the two fit together? We do have as awesome God!
Mentally release those who have treated you with unfairness or even cruelty. Don't live in the past. Your God stands above all that has happened in your life. He can redeem and use those thing for your good and His glory.
