Let God Be Our Answer

Psalms 109:17-31


As he loved cursing, so let it come to him;
As he did not delight in blessing, so let it be far from him.
¹⁸ As he clothed himself with cursing as with his garment,
So let it enter his body like water,
And like oil into his bones.
¹⁹ Let it be to him like the garment which covers him,
And for a belt with which he girds himself continually.
²⁰ Let this be the Lord’s reward to my accusers,
And to those who speak evil against my person.

²¹ But You, O GOD the Lord,
Deal with me for Your name’s sake;
Because Your mercy is good, deliver me.
²² For I am poor and needy,
And my heart is wounded within me.
²³ I am gone like a shadow when it lengthens;
I am shaken off like a locust.
²⁴ My knees are weak through fasting,
And my flesh is feeble from lack of fatness.
²⁵ I also have become a reproach to them;
When they look at me, they shake their heads.

²⁶ Help me, O Lord my God!
Oh, save me according to Your mercy,
²⁷ That they may know that this is Your hand—
That You, Lord, have done it!
²⁸ Let them curse, but You bless;
When they arise, let them be ashamed,
But let Your servant rejoice.
²⁹ Let my accusers be clothed with shame,
And let them cover themselves with their own disgrace as with a mantle.

³⁰ I will greatly praise the Lord with my mouth;
Yes, I will praise Him among the multitude.
³¹ For He shall stand at the right hand of the poor,
To save him from those who condemn him.

We are not training ourselves to call those things of God, so our lives may be happy and fully secure.  Our only reason for our world's mess today, is because we have lined our words up to what we can see, instead of what we can't see.  God asks, that we call those things that aren't as though they are.  We also must understand that if our words aren't lined up to peace, love, and happiness, things will soon become dysfunctional.  satan knows this, and as long as he can keep us from getting the full word of God, he has us.  God asks, that we talk about Him in the morning, noon, and night.  He asks, that we meditate on His wisdom, to keep satan under our foot.  God says, He has released us among snakes, scorpions, and vipers.  These are the types of spirits that cling to us to keep us disoriented, and coming to the full knowledge of God to discern them.  Believe me, I've tested and tried these spirits upon us, and God's word is true.  We can't become so overly consumed with what our world is saying today, because it will kill us mind, body, and soul.  God asks us, to let patients have its perfect work.  We're fighting for peace on earth and life everlasting with God for eternity.  We can't possibly believe this would be some easy task, however, God says, He wouldn't put more on us then we can bear.  His words must be taken to heart, then applied to all life's circumstances. Believe with faith, that what is impossible for man, is possible with God.  Don't let the words of our family, friends, or world, determine our success. Let God be our answer.


 (Jeremiah 31:16-17)  Thus says the Lord: “Refrain your voice from weeping, And your eyes from tears; For your work shall be rewarded, says the Lord, and they shall come back from the land of the enemy.¹⁷ There is hope in your future, says the Lord, That your children shall come back to their own border.


Blessings to all who wait and let God answer all their needs,
