Today's scripture: Psalm 10:16-18
Yes. It seems the bad guys are winning battle after battle. Corruption.
Perversion. Immorality. It can make even the most faithful hang her head in
despair.
Ah. But we know Who wins the war.
Read the first line of today’s scripture again: "The Lord, our Lord, is
King forever and ever." He has heard—and will hear—"the desire of the
humble." He has heard—and will hear—our cries.
And He will one day do justice. One day, we all—each and every one of us—will
stand before His throne, and those of us who follow Him will receive rewards
according to how we’ve served Him.
One day, those who chose not to follow Him will receive judgment. Those who
have oppressed, those who have lived thumbing their noses at God, those who
have flagrantly lived in ungodliness will be judged.
Now read the last line of this psalm. I’m no theologian, and again, this psalm
seems to be more about man than Satan, but wouldn’t you agree that the enemy
could be described as “the man of the earth”? And if so, one day, he will
oppress no more.
Find hope in these words today, my friend. Be encouraged, knowing that one day,
all the pain and suffering you’re facing today will be over. We will be
face-to-face with our King—forever and ever.
