Settle

As you are going with your adversary to the ruler, make an effort to settle with him on the way. Then he won’t drag you before the judge, the judge hand you over to the bailiff, and the bailiff throw you into prison.

Luke 12:58

Jesus is speaking of situations in which a person legitimately owes a debt, but is trying to avoid it by allowing the matter to be taken to court. In such cases, it is better to compromise and pay the dept through agreed terms than to wait and let the court decide.

Heavenly Father, thank You for Your mercy upon us. You are Great and Wonderful! You are the Only True and Living God, and we will praise You forever. In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise You, Amen.
