Restitution

You and I most likely have restitution meant for collection.  When a thief is discovered and brought to trial, he must pay restitution to the victim for what he has stolen.  This is a Scriptural Truth.  Restitution is restoration.

What is the point of gaining knowledge unless you apply it?  The Word lays out FATHER’S Divine Intent for restitution and HE has not changed HIS Mind from when it was established.  The thief must pay back restitution to the victim that which was stolen in like manner.

Wisdom wrote by The Holy Spirit in Proverbs chapter 6:

30 You can almost excuse a thief if he steals to feed his own family.

31 But if he’s caught, he still has to pay back what he stole sevenfold;

    his punishment and fine will cost him greatly.

Moses recorded by THE SPIRT in Exodus chapter 22:

1 If a man steals an ox or sheep and kills or sells it, he shall pay five oxen for an ox, or four sheep for a sheep.

2 If a thief is found breaking in and is struck so that he dies, there shall be no blood shed for him.

3 But if the sun has risen [so he can be seen], blood must be shed for slaying him. The thief [if he lives] must make full restitution; if he has nothing, then he shall be sold for his theft.

4 If the beast which he stole is found in his possession alive, whether it is ox or ass or sheep, he shall restore double.

5 If a man causes a field or vineyard to be grazed over or lets his beast loose and it feeds in another man’s field, he shall make restitution of the best of his own field or his own vineyard.

6 If fire breaks out and catches so that the stacked grain or standing grain or the field be consumed, he who kindled the fire shall make full restitution.

7 If a man delivers to his neighbor money or goods to keep and it is stolen out of the neighbor’s house, then, if the thief is found, he shall pay double.

8 But if the thief is not found, the house owner shall appear before God [the judges as His agents] to find whether he stole his neighbor’s goods.

9 For every unlawful deed, whether it concerns ox, donkey, sheep, clothing, or any lost thing at all, which another identifies as his, the cause of both parties shall come before God [the judges]. Whomever [they] shall condemn shall pay his neighbor double.

10 If a man delivers to his neighbor a donkey or an ox or a sheep or any beast to keep and it dies or is hurt or driven away, no man seeing it,

11 Then an oath before the Lord shall be required between the two that the man has not taken his neighbor’s property; and the owner of it shall accept his word and not require him to make good the loss.

12 But if it is stolen when in his care, he shall make restitution to its owner.

13 If it be torn in pieces [by some wild beast or by accident], let him bring [the mangled carcass] for witness; he shall not make good what was torn.

14 And if a man borrows anything of his neighbor and it gets hurt or dies without its owner being with it, the borrower shall make full restitution.

The devil is the one who steals, kills, and destroys.  He is the one who motivates thieves thus he is the one who must ultimately pay back the victim.  FATHER is well aware of what he owes each of us and awaits our requests for restitution.  As the ultimate Righteous Judge, HE will see that repayment will come forth on our behalf. 

If your health has been stolen, expect restoration in abundance.  If your finances have been stolen or diverted from you in any unlawful manner, expect finances to come forth on your behalf.  The thief must pay up to sevenfold, demand it!
