Proverbs 28:12
12When the righteous rejoice, there is great glory;
But when the wicked arise, men hide themselves.
-Proverbs 28:12
It is a right thing that we find ourselves rooting for the good guys. When we sit down and watch a movie or a show, we often find ourselves excited at the good guys overcoming the odds, victory being won, and justice being served. Even more so than when we see it in fiction, we rejoice when the righteous rejoice. It testifies of something good and something exciting. But what is it that would cause the wicked to rejoice? We can come into agreement that it is usually nothing good. When the wicked arise, people turn away and flee. This leads us to an important revelation into our own mindsets. Are we rejoicing in the Lord's victory or fleeing in the enemy's rising? Jesus has given us the victory. So let us then rejoice and glory in Him.
