For behold, Your enemies, O Lord,
For behold, Your enemies shall perish;
All the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
10 But my horn You have exalted like a wild ox;
I have been anointed with fresh oil.
11 My eye also has seen my desire on my enemies;
My ears hear my desire on the wicked
Who rise up against me.
I have been anointed with fresh oil.
11 My eye also has seen my desire on my enemies;
My ears hear my desire on the wicked
Who rise up against me.
12 The righteous shall flourish like a palm tree,
He shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
13 Those who are planted in the house of the Lord
Shall flourish in the courts of our God.
14 They shall still bear fruit in old age;
They shall be fresh and flourishing,
15 To declare that the Lord is upright;
He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.
He shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
13 Those who are planted in the house of the Lord
Shall flourish in the courts of our God.
14 They shall still bear fruit in old age;
They shall be fresh and flourishing,
15 To declare that the Lord is upright;
He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.
You know how we reminisce on the good old days, wondering what this person is doing today or why that person died too soon? God has a plan for our lives. If we're not giving up our lives, to find this beautiful life He has already ordained for us, He will surely make life difficult for us. He says in verse 9 "For behold, Your enemies, O Lord, For behold, your enemies shall perish; All the workers of iniquity shall be scattered." We are commanded by God to be in one mind, one spirit, His Spirit. If this is not happening we will find ourselves spinning our wheels, looking for that pot of gold and never finding it. God is the vine, and we are His branches, He says, and without Him we can do nothing but wither away. David says in verse 10-11 "But my horn you have exalted like a wild ox; I have been anointed with fresh oil, my eye also has seen my desire on my enemies; My ears hear my desire on the wicked who rise up against me. We have to be tuned in to God's words and thoughts for our lives to come out a winner. If we all were in the same mind and of the same spirit, our relationships wouldn't fade away. God says, where two or three are gathered in His name, He is there in the midst. God is a concerned spirit, and if we become concerned for one another, like God is for us, we wouldn't let one another fall by the way so easily. David was in tune with God and His word, which is why he could see and discern the calamity that was to fall on his enemies. God has a protocol by which we are to live. First, loving Him with all our mind, soul, and being, then, loving one another as we love ourselves. God's true children are to be flourishing and bearing fruit even in their old age. We are to be declaring His righteousness, and having no unrighteousness near us. Let's stay together.
(Psalms 37:34) " Hope in the Lord and keep His way."
Blessings to all as we stay together in the name of Jesus Christ,
