The Treasury of David
by Charles Spurgeon
Psalm 41

Father, Lord, God in Heaven
We can imagine our president going through the anguish outlined in this psalm. Therefore we present to You as a solicitation on his behalf.

Verse 7.
All that hate me whisper together against me.

Mark the unanimity of the wicked—all. How heartily the dogs unite to hunt the stag! Would God we were half as united in holy labour as persecutors in their malicious projects, and were half as wise as they are crafty, for their whispering was craft as well as cowardice, the conspiracy must not be known till all is ready.

Against me do they devise my hurt. They lay their heads together, and scheme and plot. So did Ahithophel and the rest of Absalom's counsellors, so also did the chief priests and Pharisees. Evil men are good at devising; they are given to meditation, they are deep thinkers, but the mark they aim at is evermore the hurt of the faithful. Snakes in the grass are never there for a good end.

Thank-you. Spurgeon aims right at the black heart of the wicked.

Food for thought.

Dear Lord, Surround and protect Our President and his counselors with bands of angels. Enlighten them by the power of the Holy Spirit.
Destroy and defeat the enemy at every sinister turn of this battle.

For Thine is the Kingdom, and the Power, and the Glory.

Amen
