🇺🇸Pray For The Peace of Jerusalem🇮🇱 (9/3/26)[Prayer]

Personalities



Psalm 12[a]

For the director of music. According to sheminith.[b] A psalm of David.

1  Help, Lord, for no one is faithful anymore;

those who are loyal have vanished from the human race.

2  Everyone lies to their neighbor;

they flatter with their lips

but harbor deception in their hearts.

3  May the Lord silence all flattering lips

and every boastful tongue—

4  those who say,

“By our tongues we will prevail;

our own lips will defend us—who is lord over us?”

5  “Because the poor are plundered and the needy groan,

I will now arise,” says the Lord.

“I will protect them from those who malign them.”

6  And the words of the Lord are flawless,

like silver purified in a crucible,
    like gold[c] refined seven times.

7  You, Lord, will keep the needy safe

and will protect us forever from the wicked,

8  who freely strut about

when what is vile is honored by the human race.

David was just a kid when he slew Goliath. He had been too young for the Army, the youngest of eight sons, so he had stayed home to tend his father's sheep, while his brothers all went to war. From the day he took the "Care Package From Home" to is brothers on the Front Lines, he was pressed into service to Saul. Saul was immediately consumed with jealousy over this young warrior, and , from the start, tried to manipulate and undermine him at every turn.

Everything Saul did, from throwing spears at David as he played his instrument (tough gig!), to using his own daughters to ensnare David into the family, was motivated by jealousy and paranoia.

It's probable that Jonathan, David's best friend, was well aware of his father's instability. He did his best to protect David, at the risk of being accused of disloyalty to Saul. It got so bad that David had to become a fugitive.

While he was on the run, David made some horrible alliances. Whether he was "in survival mode", or being just plain wicked, isn't really clear in Scripture. He did some terrible things during this period of his life. The brief passage of Scripture doesn't come close to the actual time line, as David didn't become king till he was 30 years old. In those days, that was "Middle Aged".

In many of David's Psalms, he cries out "How Long, Oh LORD?".

This phrase has become a lament throughout the ages, for people being persecuted for their Faith, people devastated by war or famine, or even people praying for a loved one's salvation.

"How Long, Oh LORD?". has been my own cry to God on more than one occasion.

The answer to "How Long" is in this same Psalm. The last three verses say:

6 And the words of the Lord are flawless,

like silver purified in a crucible,
like gold[c] refined seven times.

7 You, Lord, will keep the needy safe

and will protect us forever from the wicked,

8 who freely strut about

when what is vile is honored by the human race.

The last few days, there has been a lot of "strutting about" in my area due to a high-profile murder case. It's been very disheartening to me, and I've felt free here to express my dismay over it. There are other places I frequent where I can't be as vocal about my feelings on the matter.

But, God's Word is always with me. It's a great comfort to me that I know God sees it all, and He WILL work it out. His words are like 24K Gold to me as I call them to mind. When I cry out "How Long?", His answer is "That's between ME and THEM. Seek YE First the Kingdom of God".

In other words,

"I GOT THIS."

Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.

Blessed Is The Nation Whose God Is The LORD (Psalm 33)

God Bless America.

[norsky]

Amen, don’t hinder the fire that is in you, you may regret it later. Unfortunately the nation is headed that way and Christians have been too passive. We all make mistakes along the way. And now I realize why David’s wife from Saul had no children.

[Hiskid]

Amen. the “how long” lament is one of those “common to man” sins/temptations. As you said, this is where the Word holds us up.

[NEWwoman]

Amen, left that other site

Joining in prayer for the Peace of Jerusalem and for our beloved America-250.

The wicked who freely strut about
when what is vile is honored by the human race.

We sure see this in politics.

Psalm 91

1 You who live in the shelter of the Most High,
who abide in the shadow of the Almighty,*
2 will say to the Lord, ‘My refuge and my fortress;
my God, in whom I trust.’
3 For he will deliver you from the snare of the fowler
and from the deadly pestilence;
4 he will cover you with his pinions,
and under his wings you will find refuge;
his faithfulness is a shield and buckler.
5 You will not fear the terror of the night,
or the arrow that flies by day,
6 or the pestilence that stalks in darkness,
or the destruction that wastes at noonday.

7 A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you.
8 You will only look with your eyes
and see the punishment of the wicked.

9 Because you have made the Lord your refuge,*
the Most High your dwelling-place,
10 no evil shall befall you,
no scourge come near your tent.

11 For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways.
12 On their hands they will bear you up,
so that you will not dash your foot against a stone.
13 You will tread on the lion and the adder,
the young lion and the serpent you will trample under foot.

14 Those who love me, I will deliver;
I will protect those who know my name.
15 When they call to me, I will answer them;
I will be with them in trouble,
I will rescue them and honour them.
16 With long life I will satisfy them,
and show them my salvation.
