I thought my daily Psalm to be incredibly apropos and encouraging for the anti-Christian rampage happening within our government and within our own country. Sometimes I need a reminder of WHO WINS! I have highlighted several verses that I thought were excellent in showing that, when we feel we are in a losing battle, our God will deliver the righteous! Please sit down and read all of Psalm 37 as it is a beautiful illustration of God’s love for His people.
Psalm 37 (KJV):
1-3: Fret not thyself because of evildoers, nether be thou envious against workers of iniquity. For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb. Trust in the Lord and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily shalt thou be fed.
7: Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.
9-15: For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the Lord, they shall inherit the earth. For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be…but the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace. The wicked plotteth against the just, and gnasheth upon him with his teeth. The Lord shall laugh at him: for he seeth that his day is coming. The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy, and to slay such as be of upright conversation. Their sword shall enter into their own heart, and their bows shall be broken.
17: For the arms of the wicked shall be broken; but the Lord upholdeth the righteous.
19-20: They shall not be ashamed in the evil time: and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied. But the wicked shall perish and the enemies of the Lord shall be as the fat of lambs: they shall consume; into smoke shall they consume away.
39-40: But the salvation of the righteous is of the Lord: He is their strength in the time of trouble. And the Lord shall help them, and deliver them: he shall deliver them from the wicked, and save them, because they trust in him.
For those of you who stumbled upon this blog who are, as yet, unsaved, please know that, "But God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." Romans 5:7-8
John 3:16 "For God so loved the world (you and I) that He gave His one and only son that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life."
These times we sit in are perilous, "This know also, that in the last days, perilous times shall come." 2 Tim 3:1
The last days are upon us, but you still have time to repent and be saved! You need not "clean up" first, all you must do is, "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved!" Romans 10:9
Congratulations. And welcome to the family of God. "Verily I say unto thee, Today shalt thou be with me in paradise." Luke 23:43
