Psalm
9 & 10- God’s Side
The
praise is when all things will be put under the feet of Him who was made a
little lower than the angels. We should not be so concerned about having God on
our side as to us being on God’s side.
The
Psalmist makes it clear that all the enemies of Israel are to be conquered.
This is God’s victory for the remnant that will be on His side.
It
all started in the land of Egypt. A new king in that land enslaved God’s chosen
people, and he tried to exterminate the whole race which would frustrate the
grace and purpose of God in redemption. Ever since that time the nations have
been Israel’s enemies. They will continue to hate Israel until the day of
deliverance comes.
Righteousness
is what is needed today. God is the One who declares what is right. He makes
the rules for this universe, and He is running it. Justice has already been established in the person of
the Lord Jesus when He bore our sins, and He has been made unto us
righteousness. Mercy is also extended to us in Jesus Christ. The poor will
receive Justice when Jesus comes. He is king of kings and Lord of lords. Only
God will meet their need.
The
wicked are those who are filled with pride, the “great” of the earth, who have
no place for God in their lives. Pride identifies the false messiah, and the
Anti-Christ will be an atheist filled with pride and boasting. He despises God.
God
is probably the most unpopular Person in the world right now. That’s because
the wicked are in control. We are moving forward the time when the sin of man
will lead to the “man of sin,” this final anti-Christ. The man of the earth is
Antichrist.
Please
read the chapter listed so that you can understand God’s Word better.
