Sid: I am so excited about the subject of this week’s interview. I’m talking to John Paul Jackson and if you recall I interviewed him a while back and he shared about what he called “The Perfect Storm” of everything that’s going to be coming on America. And I have to tell you people got so fearful over these things. I mean believers believers should not have. But believers got so fearful over these things and God has given him a parallel teaching that I personally haven’t heard before. And it has to do with how to receive God’s justice when unjust things are happening to you. John Paul so that we have a little better understanding what are God’s feelings about justice?
John Paul: Well Sid, when I began to study this because of that experience where he talked about His name Jehovah Mish Bat, the God of Justice and I began to study it. I saw that in scriptures it was mentioned over 500 times.
Sid: Now if I did a man on the street poll, like most churches and said how many times is this mentioned in scripture? I don’t think anyone would get that.
John Paul: No, and I wouldn’t either. I wouldn’t have thought 500 times, but it is. And then, I began to see, I began to read about Abraham in Genesis 18. Did you ever wonder why God chose Abraham over all the people on the face of the earth, why God chose Abraham? Here’s what it says in Genesis 18:19. It says, for I have known him, Abraham, in order that he may command his children and his household after him that they keep the way of the Lord to do righteousness and justice. That he would…
Sid: You know, in my mind I would remember he picked them because he would teach his children the way of the Lord but I kind of put a period there and I didn’t get the rest of that.
John Paul: Right, the way of the Lord, and to do righteousness and justice. It was so important to God Abraham would teach, not only do righteousness and justice, but he would teach his children. He would pass on, he would perpetuate the understanding the need for justice and righteousness to be perpetuated in the earth. Matthew 23 Yeshua says, Woe to you scribes and Pharisees hypocrites, get this you pay tithe of mint, anus and cumin but neglected the weightier matters of the law. Tithes and doing what’s financially right in offerings and so on, but there is weightier matters than even that and what are those weightier matters? It says you have neglected the weightier matters of the law justice, mercy and faith. Weightier then tithing, weightier than offerings weightier than any of those things is the issue of justice in the eyes of the Lord. You take a look at what Solomon, what God said to Solomon, when Solomon ask God for understanding heart to be able to judge his people, when God comes back to him and speaks to him because you have not asked for riches for yourself, you have not asked for the life of your enemy you’ve asked to discern an give it justice to my people. Justice, this whole issue but then there is one more thing that or two more things that I would like to bring out if I can really really quick. One is Isaiah 30:18 says this the Lord will wait that he may be gracious to you and therefore he will be exalted and that He may have mercy on you, for the Lord is a God of Justice. Blessed are those who wait for Him. In other words, it was saying God wants to give justice to you, He wants to show mercy upon you by giving justice to you, but you will have to wait for it. And in the waiting for it you will see God stand up and act and give you justice and that’s what Yeshua is going to get in Luke 18. Where the woman comes to the unrighteous judge and she says to him, avenge me of my adversaries give me justice my adversaries have taken from me. Give me justice. The unrighteous judge gets up and says I will avenge her of her adversaries I will give her justice from her adversaries because she is wearying me and Yeshua said here what the unjust judge said. Shall not God avenge or give justice to His own who cry out day and night to him. Now that passage, it says men are not always to pray and not to faint and we take that and we apply it simply to prayer. We pray and I agree with that application but it is not the full application. The full application, Sid is praying and crying out day and night for justice to be given to us. We can pray and ask God to give justice and pray until that justice comes to us from the Father.
Sid: Okay, injustice obviously comes from the devil but is there anything that we do or could do to stop God’s justice from coming to us? Well we know what injustice is, sickness, poverty, family problems we know plenty of things of injustice, money being stolen from us but would stop or literally tie God’s hands from being a God of justice to us?
John Paul: Very good question, very good question and basically two points. One is that we can fail to live a righteous life meaning we are not perfect but we can seek after righteousness. Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness.
Sid: It seems like we’re in a time in history, John Paul in which it is sort of like the boiling frog syndrome you put a slow boil and this frog will die. You turn up the flame immediately it will jump out of the water and we have a slow boil that’s getting to the point; compared to when I was a child it’s outrageous what is being accepted today. Are you saying those are the things that would tie God’s hands?
John Paul: Yes living in a lack of righteousness would tie God’s hands, because if he acted on your behalf and give you justice then he would be condoning your activities.
Sid: He would be unjust.
John Paul: He would be unjust and there is no injustice in Him whatsoever therefore he cannot do and cannot offer an unrighteous act. He cannot perform an unrighteous act on your behalf even though He may want to he cannot do that. He may want to have mercy on you but He cannot do that because it would be an act of unrighteousness on His part.
Sid: Now, you have been teaching this for awhile and why has this become such an important area for you to teach on? I mean you have so many important areas you teach on, why this one?
John Paul: This one because: #1. what’s coming and #2. we have had testimony of things that have come back from healings that have taken place and business blessings that have taken place and family restorations that have taken place etc. There is one testimony that they got from a lady in Ohio, I’ll just leave it there because I am going to ask her permission to share this but just in Ohio. She had a son with autism and her father had left the home when she was just a baby. Injustice had been going on in her life ever since that time; just various financial issues, social issues, family issues horrible horrendous type things. She then ends up having a baby and married having a baby but the baby had a severe case of autism. She believed that the autism was an injustice and she began to pray asking the Father. Father from the time I was a child, about the same age my child is right now I have had injustices happening in my life over and over again. Father I ask you for justice on behalf of my family bring justice on behalf of my family. She wasn’t even necessarily thinking that it would be applied to her son, she was asking for justice for her family and that her son was part of the family would receive some sort of something from God in this whole process. What ends up happening is over a case of about forty-five days the son stops exhibiting the autistic behavior that he had and over about a three month period the son was diagnosed as no longer having autism. And it all came; she says tied back to the prayer of praying justice to be given to her. See sometimes we think we have family injustice have to portray something coming back to us family wise or financial injustices have to come back financially. The reality is, God chooses the way he wants to give you justice and the settlement for that. You know that’s why He says what the palmerworm and the cankerworm have eaten I will repaid seven times that’s the settlement. So it’s not just, and on a previous broadcast we talked about the justice for justice but then there is a settlement so now what happens is she starts receiving justice. Her family starts being restored but the settlement is her son is healed of autism.
Sid: Tell me some of the things that could be included in our settlement when God acts as the just God in our life.
John Paul: Marriages could be healed, relationship with children could be healed, elements that drove your children to drug addiction can be healed and the drug addiction then be stopped. The bipolarism, we’ve had testimonies of bipolarizm being healed. Manic depression being healed, we had businesses turned around and cities give contracts when they failed to owner the lowest bid the city actually gives more contracts to the contractor instead of fewer contracts.
Sid: You know, one of the things I like that you talk about in the settlement is that it includes things, like greater power, greater insight into the scripture, provision, protection, anointing, favor. That’s pretty exciting stuff, John Paul!
John Paul: Included in that Sid, would be the issue of sensitivity to the Holy Spirit. So when the Holy Spirit says move here you move, go here you go, don’t go into there you don’t go in. You have a greater sensitivity. Justice gives you greater sensitivity to what God wants to do; which also includes the issues that you just mentioned.
Sid: And now, just out of curiosity do you have to identify the injustice to have these blessings start happen or do you have a blanket prayer.
John Paul: No, you can say this is what’s going on in my family. You can recognize that the troubles you are going through are not right. You have nothing to invite the enemy into your household; you done nothing to invite these problems into your life. Those…
Sid: Oh I’m sorry, were out of time but you want the one CD and the one DVD. This two disk set called “Keys to Receiving God’s Justice.” It’s one of these mandatory end time teachings, absolutely needed and the bonus will thrill you! You will hear the reaction of people to see supernatural phenomena as John Paul teaches. A special CD called “Naturally Supernatural.”
