We Must Bow Down

Psalms 55:8-15


"I would hasten my escape
From the windy storm and tempest.”

⁹ Destroy, O Lord, and divide their tongues,
For I have seen violence and strife in the city.
¹⁰ Day and night they go around it on its walls;
Iniquity and trouble are also in the midst of it.
¹¹ Destruction is in its midst;
Oppression and deceit do not depart from its streets.

¹² For it is not an enemy who reproaches me;
Then I could bear it.
Nor is it one who hates me who has exalted himself against me;
Then I could hide from him.
¹³ But it was you, a man my equal,
My companion and my acquaintance.
¹⁴ We took sweet counsel together,
And walked to the house of God in the throng.

¹⁵ Let death seize them;
Let them go down alive into hell,
For wickedness is in their dwellings and among them."

Jesus asked God on the way to His death, if it be Your will, take this cup from Me.  David said in verse 8, He would hasten his escape from the windy storm and tempest.  Jonah, fled from drinking the cup of God's will and we read what happen to him by doing that.  We must understand, there's no way around getting to our blessings, unless we humble to the throne of God.  We are in His world, He's not in ours and He tells us how to be blessed in His Holy Bible.  We must humble to the Master's throne and prove ourselves worthy.  God says, if we can't handle worldly wealth, how can He trust us with true riches.  satan and his crew have been unleashed into our world and it was long before we were here.  We now must humble to God as righteous slaves, and impart love from our hearts, as He does for us each day.  The Gift from God has already been given.  It is now up to us to take on the mind of Christ and win, as He did.  Cunning, baffling, and wise the devil is, much wiser than us.  Why do you think we see so many grow old and are mad at the world, themselves, and others close to them?  Diseases, incurable diseases, hate, theft, tension, strife, backbiting, comparing ourselves among ourselves, angry and complaining, all tools of the devil.  God commands, that we become aware of this by reading His word and stop these catastrophes.  He asks, that we bind His book to our hands and put it as frontlets before our eyes, to keep satan at bay.  Our bible is the escape route into God's loving arms and peace, and shelter into eternity. We are destroying our cities, neighborhoods, and world, day and night.  We see oppression, violence, corruption, iniquity and trouble everywhere.  Verses 12-15 says,  ^"For it is not an enemy who reproaches me; Then I could bear it. Nor is it one who hates me who has exalted himself against me; Then I could hide from him. ¹³ But it was you, a man my equal, My companion and my acquaintance.¹⁴ We took sweet counsel together, And walked to the house of God in the throng.¹⁵ Let death seize them; Let them go down alive into hell, For wickedness is in their dwellings and among them."  We're out here in God's universe doing are own wills and not His, even churches are deceiving themselves.   We are sending our own selves into hell, by keeping our eyes on the world instead of the word.  We must bow-down.

(Hebrews 4:16)  " Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need."

Blessings to all who bow before the throne,
