Job 29:17"I broke the jaws of the wicked And snatched the prey from his teeth.
There are many things in this world that just aren't right. I have found myself on the receiving end of plenty of injustice in my life. Most of which I have allowed to slide by me without opposition. Basically, I would decide to choose my battles on a case by case basis. I have found one common thread in all my decision making concerning these situations. A litmus test per say. I have found that when the offense is only against me personally.... it is much easier to push aside as "lesson learned". However, when the offense is against someone I care for; or even someone who I perceive to be a weaker, defenseless individual. . . I tend to get my steel toe boots on preparing for opposition.
I have fought against many proud and presumptuous a person in this stance and have found victory in most cases (and still awaiting victory in others). For all my living, I would dare say.. that unless you learn how to take a stand against the evil giants (or mental midgets) among you, then you have missed out on a significant part of living.
In case any of you are wondering if a "good Christian" would really do such a thing. Keep in mind what it truly means to be a Child of God.
Defend the weak and the fatherless;Psalm 82
uphold the cause of the poor and the oppressed.4 Rescue the weak and the needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked.5 “The ‘gods’ know nothing, they understand nothing. They walk about in darkness;
all the foundations of the earth are shaken.6 “I said, ‘You are “gods”; you are all sons of the Most High.’
