TODAY’S TURNING POINT WITH DR. DAVID JEREMIAH 30 SEPTEMBER 2025 DAILY DEVOTIONAL MESSAGE
Read David Jeremiah Daily Devotional – 30th September 2025, Tuesday Turning Point Devotional Message
TOPIC: Vengeance Is Mine
Joseph said to [his brothers], “Do not be afraid, for am I in the place of God?”
Genesis 50:19
Recommended Reading: Romans 12:17-21
Once their father, Jacob, had died, Joseph might have been tempted to exact revenge on his brothers. But he didn’t. Years before Moses spoke about vengeance belonging to God, Joseph seemed to have understood that important truth: “Do not be afraid, for am I in the place of God?” He knew that any judgment or retribution for evil must come from God alone, not from man. To seek vengeance on another person is to put ourselves in the place of God to whom judgment belongs.
Vengeance is a carnal, common response when we have been wronged. If you have been wronged, meditate on Paul’s expansion of this theme in Romans 12:17-21.
The instinct of retribution is the strongest instinct of the human heart.
Augustus H. Strong
