In Matthew 2, Pastor John S. Dickerson examines the disturbing dishonesty of Herod the Great—a ruler who pretended to worship Jesus while secretly plotting violence. This Daily Hope reminds us that lies, injustice, and corruption may seem to prosper for a time, but God is never fooled and His justice always prevails. If you’re discouraged by dishonest leaders or unfair circumstances, this devotional points you back to hope: God protects His people, evil does not get the final word, and faithfulness is never wasted.
