REASSURE YOURSELF IN THE LORD (Psalm 11)
Psalm 11:1
In the LORD put I my trust: how say ye to my soul, Flee [as] a bird to your mountain?
When things look overwhelming the believer should very well be careful the type of advice they accept, for many speak out of ignorance.
At the time of writing Psalm 11, it is obvious that David was facing impending threat and most likely from Saul, the advice from his friends was to run.
However the most important thing is: "what was God saying?"
We shouldn't get carried away with the challenges and feel God doesn't cater for His own. NO
Psalm 11:4
The LORD [is] in his holy temple, the LORD'S throne [is] in heaven: his eyes behold, his eyelids try, the children of men.
He is displeased with those who walked in unrighteousness:
Psalm 11:5
The LORD trieth the righteous: but the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.
Yes this was what Prophet Isaiah prophesied:
Isaiah 26:3
Thou wilt keep [him] in perfect peace, [whose] mind [is] stayed [on thee]: because he trusteth in thee.
One thing must be clear:
The Heavenly Father loves those who walk righteously and hates those who walk in unrighteousness.
For God is love and He expects us to walk in love.
Thus the coming of the Messiah empowers us to live the way the Heavenly Father expects us to live.
Matthew 20:28
Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.
Yes the Son of God came to grant us this liberty, the we can now be called the righteousness of God.
1 Corinthians 1:30
But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:
The question then is "How can we receive such great a redemption and still desire to walk in the way of the unrighteous?
We are under God's cover as long we walk in obedience. We ought not to be afraid of enemies.
Believers should continue to exalt themselves thus, for we are under the Heavenly Father's cover.
Psalm 11:7
For the righteous LORD loveth righteousness; his countenance doth behold the upright.
Halleluyah.
We are blessed.
Love
