Psalm 59 ~ O my Strength, I will watch for you †


Where is your mind... palace?

 
Psalm 46
God is our refuge and strength



Psalm 59


A Miktam of David, when Saul sent men to watch his house in order to kill him.

Deliver me from my enemies, O my God;
protect me from those who rise up against me;
2 deliver me from those who work evil,
and save me from bloodthirsty men.

3 For behold, they lie in wait for my life;
fierce men stir up strife against me.
For no transgression or sin of mine, O Lord,
4 for no fault of mine, they run and make ready.


Awake, come to meet me, and see!
5 You, Lord God of hosts, are God of Israel.
Rouse yourself to punish all the nations;
spare none of those who treacherously plot evil. Selah

6 Each evening they come back,
howling like dogs
and prowling about the city.
7 There they are, bellowing with their mouths
with swords in their lips—
for “Who,” they think, “will hear us?”

8 But you, O Lord, laugh at them;
you hold all the nations in derision.


9 O my Strength, I will watch for you,
for you, O God, are my fortress.
10 My God in his steadfast love will meet me;
God will let me look in triumph on my enemies.

11 Kill them not, lest my people forget;
make them totter by your power and bring them down,
O Lord, our shield!


12 For the sin of their mouths, the words of their lips,
let them be trapped in their pride.


For the cursing and lies that they utter,
13 consume them in wrath;
consume them till they are no more,
that they may know that God rules over Jacob
to the ends of the earth. Selah

14 Each evening they come back,
howling like dogs
and prowling about the city.
15 They wander about for food
and growl if they do not get their fill.

16 But I will sing of your strength;
I will sing aloud of your steadfast love in the morning.
For you have been to me a fortress
and a refuge in the day of my distress.


17 O my Strength, I will sing praises to you,
for you, O God, are my fortress,
the God who shows me steadfast love.







Mark 10 
32 And they were on the road, going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus was walking ahead of them. And they were amazed, and those who followed were afraid.

David created a song for Worshiping Father God, in His Temple - worrying about enemies. Kind of unusual, to be asked to sing about the horror of enemies. With repeat attacks. And yet, Jesus records in His Gospels about walking with Jesus Himself and feeling afraid.


God tells us our emotions are not to be repressed to present God our halo selves spiffed up for God's happy favor.

Jesus tells us prayer is even when we feel God has not been but an evil Judge. Pray impudently to Your Friend, Father God, who will allow you to pray impudently until the problem has moved past. Midnight. Like Passover. And in honesty and genuine love, find Joy in Father God. Reverence.




Enemy. A bold word. Far from the Joy of 'Behold'.

A label we hesitate to imply for the permanence of the word.

Winston Churchill said:


Of 3,000 pages in the Bible - few directly address the emotion of this word. Jesus began before Abraham and He said to really overcome - love your enemies. You will spend far less time worrying and far less time being drained. Move on.

How. Prayer. Find the human quality and pray for Love in their lives. Prosperity. Joy. And then allow the beams of light to fall upon your soul - gently.

Keep the roads of your emotional and Spiritual Life a good "High" way.

David, with all wisdom of God Himself, skips the why and when and fix. David realizes with Enemies the goal is weaken. Fight the Good Fight. Be Strengthened to move on. Pray for them to move on.

David didn't need the Drama. David needed the Victory to move on in God's Purpose.

How are we Strengthened. Oh elbows out. Rude and gory movies. Porn. Violent music. Substances. Really calming. Lots of violent images on computers. Sarcasm. Na. Finding the road forward might be the quick right or left turn into an oasis. And if all the adrenaline of caffeine and gossip is really just a mask and not a path forward - we might miss the turn off.










A few thoughts. To grab from the mind palace of Solace in Jesus Christ.

  1. We can always approach Jesus in Reverence. 
  2. Even if we feel less than stellar inside from confusing ideas of anger and hurt, the woman who grabbed the Fringe of Jesus' seamless robe, given to Him with Love for His Love, was very low to be able to grab His Fringe.
  3. Jesus made sure the lower fringe was a good place to be.
  4. Miracles happen to the old. God is not interested in Age Discrimination. And old circumstances.
  5. We all can point to a Miracle in our own lives. Sometimes they hide as coincidences. Or Good Fortune.
Light and renew your Light and others in Jesus Christ. You will find strength.

We make ourselves Strong in Jesus Christ. We pave the road for polite behavior. We make allowances. We move away from those who want the Drama of endless conflict. We remove ourselves from lies. We make Peace.

We realize email and texts have flaws and can be not received. We allow the hope of God to soften hearts and minds.











The first photo is the path from Patmos village to John's house - great view. A Cave.


George Bush Sr was part of the CIA and his political thinking was never make an enemy, cross the aisle and shake hands. Some of his reasoning, has not benefited neighboring countries. It might have been too much too fast. Some has and some has been years studying to see the effects of covert and aisle changing.

So there isn't a firm answer. Situations change. We need help to bend. Soften us to receive different ideas. Be Strong. 

The Path of Life can easily go 70 mph. Be Genuine. Be compassionate. Be who you are. Move on to be appreciated. Help when you can help. Pray at all times with compassion.

When we make straight paths within ourselves, we like us and are more open to God. This is the Strength. Doing what we can for others. Allowing all the dignity of being wise to do their own path in Jesus Christ. Be kind, it might be the only kindness the other Person receives all week. This is not going to the Right or the Left. Being straight with God who makes our Life.







Jesus was the One who welcomed the Children to come to God.

Father God has created the Universe and calls all the Stars and Heavenly Host by name. We are Blessed to be called His Child. God invites us, we are flowers of the field, to be His Child, and tell Him our prayers. Can we agree our prayers do not inform our God? Father God says have faith as a child. We can trust Father God to tell Him, who we are and ask His Help to be pleasing to Him. When we remember Father God living in our souls, we will remember Jesus holding the Leper. Washing the feet of the Disciples who were afraid and chased off women and children and asked Jesus if He wanted to bring down lightning on the Samaritans. Jesus has assured us the Giant God Gong - is not part of what Jesus has wanted the world to experience.

1 Peter 1:25
The word of the Lord stands forever


Instead our flawed world with upsetting news and unappreciative people and fussy gussy us-y brings Jesus to say He has compassion on us and would Shepherd our lives. Our hearts and souls to live forever with Father God.


What has Jesus brought us in the Holy Spirit to understanding the Nature of God in Psalm 59.

We moan and complain with real merit and real emotion about the slings and arrows of outrageous circumstance. Jesus tells us this:

O Lord, laugh at them;
you hold all the nations in derision.

Psalm 37:13
The Lord laughs at the wicked, for he sees that his day is coming.

Zephaniah 1:7
Be silent before the Lord God! For the day of the Lord is near; the Lord has prepared a sacrifice and consecrated his guests.

Philippians 2:9-11
Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, 11 and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Joel 3:14
Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision! For the day of the LORD is near in the valley of decision.


We would pray for ourselves and those we love and pray for that derision is not involved in His Decision.





1 Peter 1:25
The word of the Lord stands forever



9 O my Strength, I will watch for you,
for you, O God, are my fortress.
10 My God in his steadfast love will meet me;
God will let me look in triumph on my enemies.


Matthew 25:32
All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.



1 Peter 1:25
The word of the Lord stands forever


11 Kill them not, lest my people forget;
make them totter by your power and bring them down,
O Lord, our shield!

12 For the sin of their mouths, the words of their lips,
let them be trapped in their pride.

For the cursing and lies that they utter,
13 consume them in wrath;
consume them till they are no more,
that they may know that God rules over Jacob
to the ends of the earth. Selah

14 Each evening they come back,
howling like dogs
and prowling about the city.
15 They wander about for food
and growl if they do not get their fill.



Revelation 21:8
But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the detestable, as for murderers, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death.




16  I will sing of your strength;
I will sing aloud of your steadfast love in the morning.
For you have been to me a fortress
and a refuge in the day of my distress.


2 Samuel 22:3
My God, my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold and my refuge, my savior; you save me from violence.








17 O my Strength, I will sing praises to you,
for you, O God, are my fortress,
the God who shows me steadfast love.

Nehemiah 8:10
Nehemiah said, "Go and enjoy choice food and sweet drinks, and send some to those who have nothing prepared. This day is holy to our Lord. 

Do not grieve, 
for the joy of the LORD is your strength."

Nehemiah 8:12
Then all the people began to eat and drink, to send out portions, and to rejoice greatly

because they understood the words that had been made known to them.

Deuteronomy 26:11
So you shall rejoice--you, the Levite, and the foreigner dwelling among you

--in all the good things the LORD your God has given to you and your household.




Abba,

Thank You for this day. Thank You for my life. Thank You for the Book of Life. Thank You for Jesus. Thank You for Jesus.

And in His Temple, all cry, “Glory!”

The Lord sits enthroned over the flood; the Lord sits enthroned as King forever.

May the Lord bless his people with peace!

About scripture-for-today.blogspot.com/

We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He has saved all who call upon His name and rely on Him for His Grace. The Scriptures are living & active and are for understanding the Lord Almighty. Biblical readings are chosen from the Ecumenical Christian Church and the Nicene Council, 325 A.D., approved Apocrypha. People remember not just from reading, but by sight and orally- an image has been added as well as audio readings. God tends to link the passages together with fascinates - this blogger, Anne-Laurel Gardere

About Me

My photo
Email registry at bottom.! “All Scripture is inspired by God” (2 Timothy 3:16). Men “moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God” (2 Peter 1:21). The Holy Spirit carried men along, moving and guiding them as they wrote in their own words what God wanted them to say. The Bible is unique; comprised of 80 separate books, & written over a period of thousands of years by more than 40 writers with one Author, spanning the centuries, different states of peace & war & different situations in life. The Bible answers the question: of who is God, who is man & what can their relationship can be. Although the Bible was written on perishable material and copied by hand for many centuries, its accuracy is not in doubt, proven by Dead Sea Scrolls and papyrus from 2,000 years. The Bible has survived persecution & criticism to be read with great interest in each generation. The Bible gives witness to the greatness of the Creator. A loving Father concerned for all of his creation. With each verse of the bible witnessing to God is love and the multitude & vastness of His attributes. The Bible was written for you. <><
