In this lesson from the Gate of Repentance (Shaar HaTeshuvah), Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores one of the most compassionate principles of Jewish thought: teshuvah is deeply personal. Not everyone possesses the same knowledge, temperament, emotional resilience, or physical ability. Just as the courts in the Temple era evaluated each individual before administering punishment according to what they could physically endure, so too every person's path of repentance must be tailored to their unique circumstances. There is no universal formula for returning to Hashem. The wise mentor or teacher must understand the individual and guide them according to their strengths, limitations, and spiritual capacity.Rabbi Wolbe emphasizes that authentic spiritual growth requires knowing ourselves honestly. Some people thrive through physical discipline, while others would become discouraged by overly demanding practices. Acts of self-restraint—such as limiting physical pleasures, fasting occasionally, or taking on other personal challenges—are valuable only when they genuinely help a person grow closer to Hashem. He shares personal examples, including his own dislike of cold weather and his son's willingness to embrace cold-water challenges, illustrating that every individual must choose the path that strengthens their own character rather than imitate someone else's. Teshuvah is not measured by comparing ourselves to others, but by becoming the best version of ourselves.The episode concludes with one of the Talmud's most moving stories: Rabbi Elazar ben Dordaya, whose lifetime of immorality was transformed by a single moment of complete, heartfelt repentance. After realizing that no one else could intercede on his behalf, he turned directly to Hashem with overwhelming sincerity. At that moment, a Heavenly voice proclaimed that he had earned a place in the World to Come. Rabbi Wolbe explains that Judaism's unique approach to repentance requires no intermediaries, no confessional, and no human absolution. Every Jew has direct access to the Almighty. No matter how far a person has fallen, a sincere return to Hashem has the power to erase a lifetime of mistakes and restore an intimate relationship with the Creator._____________This Episode is Dedicated Anonymously to the I'lui Neshama of העשל בן יצחק הכהןThis Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Peter & Becky BotvinRecorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on December 15, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on July 21, 2026_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired! Share your questions at aw@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content.  _____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.  To directly send your questions, comments, and feedback, please email: awolbe@torchweb.org_____________Support Our Mission:Our Mission is Connecting Jews & Judaism.

Here’s my prayer for you today: May you be led by what is in you, not by what is around you. Because what is around you is loud. Distractions. Drama. Disappointment. Fear. Bad news. Negative people. The invitation to live a small, defeated, mediocre life is everywhere. But daughter of God, you were never created to live looking down. Downcast. Downtrodden. Down in the dumps. Down is not your direction. And here’s how I know: Because of what is in you. Romans 8:9 says, “You, however, are controlled not by the flesh, but by the Spirit, if the Spirit of God lives in you.” Then just a few verses later, Romans 8:15 says, “You have not received a spirit that makes you fearful slaves. Instead, you received God’s Spirit when he adopted you as his own children.” Did you catch that? God’s Spirit lives in you. Not beside you. Not near you. Not occasionally visiting you. In you. The mountain-moving, sea-parting, chain-breaking, prison-shaking, death-defeating power of Almighty God lives in you. Let that sink in. Because the enemy works overtime trying to make you forget it. He wants your attention on your failures instead of your Father. He wants your focus on your flaws instead of God’s power. He wants you obsessing over your weight, your money, your job, your house, your image, your circumstances—anything that keeps your eyes off the greatest reality of your life: The Spirit of God lives within you. If you’re consumed by what you see in the mirror, you’ll forget what Jesus placed inside of you. If you’re focused on your problems, you’ll forget you already have access to the power to overcome them. If you’re drowning in negative thoughts, you’ll start believing you’re stuck. But you’re not stuck. You’ve just forgotten what’s in you. The Spirit of God has already given you power to rise. Power to heal. Power to overcome. Power to keep going. Don’t sacrifice your power by entertaining pitiful. I know I’ve done it. I’ve had seasons where I focused more on my problems than my power. More on my circumstances than my Savior. And every single time, I felt defeated. Because when I play pitiful, I stop walking powerful. So let me ask you: Have you been focused on your problems? Have you been rehearsing your disappointments? Have you been sitting in self-pity? Because here’s something I learned a long time ago: You can be pitiful or you can be powerful, but you cannot be both. (Thank you Joyce Meyer.) At nineteen years old, I suffered a massive stroke. I was unable to walk or talk. While I was in the hospital, my newlywed husband kept my family away. He told them I was okay. At the time, I couldn’t understand why my mama and daddy weren’t by my bed. But he understood something I didn’t. Pity would have paralyzed me. Pity would have kept me in that bed. Pity would have convinced me I was a victim instead of a victor. My parents would have given me pity. So my young husband pushed me. He challenged me. He refused to hand me pity. And today I walk, talk, and live whole because I was offered God’s power instead of people’s pity. So why would we choose pity now? Girl, pity never looks good on you. But God’s power? That looks absolutely beautiful on you. Because of the Spirit living in you, defeat is no longer your identity. Mediocrity is no longer your calling. Fear is no longer your master. You don’t wake up expecting less. You don’t settle for surviving. Jesus didn’t die so you could live a little life. He came that you might have life—and have it abundantly. So stop sitting in pity over everything that’s wrong. Not when the Spirit of the Almighty lives in you. Oh no. You have every reason to get excited about today. Every reason to expect good things. Every reason to believe that what stands before you is smaller than the God within you. Why? Because God’s Spirit lives in you. You are not controlled by your feelings. You are not a slave to fear. You are a daughter of the King. And daughters of the King don’t walk through life defeated. They walk with authority. They walk with confidence. They walk knowing who they belong to. So remember this today: Nothing you face is greater than the Spirit within you. You are not helpless. You are not hopeless. You are not stuck. And if you feel that way, you’ve believed a lie that was never yours to carry. Don’t buy what the enemy is selling. A daughter of the King should never settle for the leftovers of a defeated devil. Remember what’s in you. The same power that spoke the universe into existence lives in you. The same power that raised Jesus from the dead lives in you. The same power that shattered prison walls and broke chains lives in you. The same power that turned water into wine lives in you. That means life is in you. Healing is in you. Freedom is in you. Victory is in you. Change is in you. Hope is in you. Power is in you. So don’t let what is around you make you forget what is in you. The circumstances are real. The challenges are real. The obstacles are real. But none of them are greater than the Spirit of God dwelling within you. That Spirit does not make you a fearful slave. That Spirit makes you a daughter. He brings you into the family. He places a crown upon your head. He declares, “You belong.” So straighten your crown, girl. Life may have knocked you around, but it has not changed who you are. You are chosen. You are loved. You are redeemed. You are a daughter of the King. And the power of Almighty God lives within you. So today, be powerful. Not pitiful.

Welcome to Day 2908 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom. Day 2908 – Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 144:-9-15 Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2908 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2908 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. The Title for today's Wisdom-Trek is: The Symphony of Shalom – Reclaiming the Blessing of the Covenant King Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2908 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. On our previous expedition, on Day Two Thousand Nine Hundred Seven, we stood amazed as we explored the first half of Psalm One Hundred Forty-Four, focusing on verses one through eight. We witnessed David, the warrior king, standing directly on the rugged frontiers of cosmic conflict, shouting praises to Yahweh, the majestic Storm Warrior, who trains his hands for war and gives his fingers skill for battle. We listened as David pleaded for the Almighty to bow the heavens, flash His supernatural lightning, and rip open the cosmic veil to rescue him from the "deep waters"—those treacherous, lying foreign enemies who sought to subvert the divine order. Today, we step directly onto the second half of this magnificent mountain pass, diving deeply into Psalm One Hundred Forty-Four, verses nine through fifteen. The spiritual and narrative scenery undergoes a beautiful, breathtaking transformation here. We are moving out of the clashing, smoky din of cosmic warfare, and stepping directly into a quiet, sunlit valley filled with a glorious, harmonious symphony of peace, domestic prosperity, and generational restoration. David understands a profound kingdom truth that every wise trekker must grasp: the ultimate purpose of divine warfare is never just the destruction of the enemy; it is the comprehensive establishment of shalom—the complete, flourishing wholeness of a society living in perfect alignment with the Creator. The first segment is: The New Song of the Vindicate Viceroy Let us open our ears to the first movement of this concluding sequence, as recorded in the New Living Translation, where David groups his logical thoughts together in verse eights, verse nine, and verse ten. I will sing a new song to you, O God! I will play on a ten-stringed lute. For you give victory to kings! You rescued your servant David from the fatal sword. David anchors his future firmly in praise, declaring with joyful anticipation, “I will sing a new song to you, O God! I will play on a ten-stringed lute. For you give victory to kings! You rescued your servant David from the fatal sword.” To fully appreciate the weight of these lines, we must view them through the fascinating lens of the Ancient Israelite divine-council worldview. In the ancient Near East, kingship was not merely a matter of human politics or military strategy. The king of Israel was uniquely designated as the earthly viceroy, the covenant partner, of Yahweh, who sits enthroned above the celestial assembly. While the surrounding pagan nations looked to their localized, rebellious deities for military dominance, David looks directly to the supreme Creator. When he mentions that God “gives victory to kings,” the original Hebrew word for victory is teshuah, which carries the profound meaning of deliverance, salvation, and cosmic rescue. David is acknowledging that no earthly monarch—regardless of how massive his infantry or how brilliant his chariot tactics might be—can secure a true victory outside of the sovereign decree of the heavenly council. Furthermore, when David vows to sing a “new song” while playing upon a ten-stringed lute, he is introducing a powerful prophetic concept. In biblical theology, a new song is never just a fresh melody; it represents a brand-new epoch in human history. It is an anthem of redemption that is sung only after a decisive, miraculous victory has been secured by the arm of the Lord. The ten-stringed lute adds a layer of majestic, symphonic fullness to this praise. David is orchestrating a grand celebration before the heavenly hosts, publicly testifying that it was not his own royal status or human strength that preserved his life, but rather the active, intervening hand of Yahweh, who personally stepped into the fray to snatch His chosen servant away from the edge of the fatal, chaotic sword. The second segment is: The Persistent Refrain: Confronting Systemic Falsehood The narrative takes a fascinating, highly strategic turn in verse eleven, as David repeats a powerful, familiar refrain that links this section directly back to the warfare themes of our previous podcast episode. Save me! Deliver me from the power of my enemies. Their mouths are full of lies; they swear to tell the truth, but they lie instead. David breaks back into an urgent, defensive petition, crying out, “Save me! Deliver me from the power of my enemies. Their mouths are full of lies; they swear to tell the truth, but they lie instead.” You might wonder why David, right after promising to sing a triumphant new song of victory, would suddenly drop right back into a desperate plea for rescue from lying adversaries. This literary structure reveals a profound truth about our daily trek of faith. The victory has been legally decreed in the heavenly courtroom, but the final mopping-up operations are still being actively contested on the earthly battlefield. David is dealing with foreign, hostile entities who do not share his covenant allegiance to the Most High. He describes them as having mouths full of lies, individuals who raise their hands to take solemn, binding oaths of truth, but unleash calculated perjury instead. This persistent focus on deception connects perfectly with the broader theological tapestry of Psalms One Hundred Forty through One Hundred Forty-Three. In the ancient world, truth was the foundational concrete that held cosmic and social order together. When a nation's leaders weaponize systemic lies, gaslighting, and false diplomacy, they are actively mimicking the original, deceptive language of the ancient serpent, attempting to dissolve the boundaries of truth established by God. David recognizes that he cannot build a flourishing, prosperous society if the foundations are continuously being eroded by foreign deception. Therefore, before he can detail the beautiful blessings of peace, he must ask the Sovereign Lord to completely sever the influence of these toxic, deceitful operations from the borders of his land. The third segment is: The Blueprint of Shalom: A Flourishing Next Generation Once the dark, chaotic waters of deception are pushed back by divine justice, the true, exquisite design of kingdom prosperity can burst forth. Let us listen to the magnificent generational blueprint David maps out in verse twelve. May our sons flourish in their youth like well-nurtured plants. May our daughters be like graceful pillars, carved to beautify a palace. David paints a breathtaking portrait of domestic flourishing, praying, “May our sons flourish in their youth like well-nurtured plants. May our daughters be like graceful pillars, carved to beautify a palace.” Notice the deep, highly intentional metaphors David employs to describe the vibrant health of the next generation. He prays that the young sons of the kingdom will grow up like well-nurtured, deeply rooted plants. In a rugged, agricultural society, a well-nurtured plant represents vitality, strength, consistent productivity, and future stability. It implies that these young men are being carefully cultivated in the soil of wisdom, growing up to become sturdy, reliable protectors and providers who will uphold the moral integrity of the covenant community. Simultaneously, David looks upon the young women of the kingdom, praying that the daughters would be like graceful, elegant pillars, exquisitely carved to beautify a majestic palace. This imagery carries immense structural and architectural significance. In the ancient Near East, the corner pillars of a palace or a temple were not merely ornamental; they were massive, load-bearing structures that held the entire weight of the roof together, ensuring the stability of the building. Yet, they were also heavily sculpted with intricate, beautiful artwork. David is declaring that the women of Israel are the dignified, essential pillars of society. They possess a profound combination of unyielding structural strength and elevated, spiritual beauty. They give shape, stability, and cultural elegance to the home and the...

Why, seeing times are not hidden from the Almighty, do they that know him not see his days?2 Some remove the landmarks; they violently take away flocks, and feed thereof.3 They drive away the ass of the fatherless, they take the widow's ox for a pledge.4 They turn the needy out of the way: the poor of the earth hide themselves together.5 Behold, as wild asses in the desert, go they forth to their work; rising betimes for a prey: the wilderness yieldeth food for them and for their children.6 They reap every one his corn in the field: and they gather the vintage of the wicked.7 They cause the naked to lodge without clothing, that they have no covering in the cold.8 They are wet with the showers of the mountains, and embrace the rock for want of a shelter.9 They pluck the fatherless from the breast, and take a pledge of the poor.10 They cause him to go naked without clothing, and they take away the sheaf from the hungry;11 Which make oil within their walls, and tread their winepresses, and suffer thirst.12 Men groan from out of the city, and the soul of the wounded crieth out: yet God layeth not folly to them.13 They are of those that rebel against the light; they know not the ways thereof, nor abide in the paths thereof.14 The murderer rising with the light killeth the poor and needy, and in the night is as a thief.15 The eye also of the adulterer waiteth for the twilight, saying, No eye shall see me: and disguiseth his face.16 In the dark they dig through houses, which they had marked for themselves in the daytime: they know not the light.17 For the morning is to them even as the shadow of death: if one know them, they are in the terrors of the shadow of death.18 He is swift as the waters; their portion is cursed in the earth: he beholdeth not the way of the vineyards.19 Drought and heat consume the snow waters: so doth the grave those which have sinned.20 The womb shall forget him; the worm shall feed sweetly on him; he shall be no more remembered; and wickedness shall be broken as a tree.21 He evil entreateth the barren that beareth not: and doeth not good to the widow.22 He draweth also the mighty with his power: he riseth up, and no man is sure of life.23 Though it be given him to be in safety, whereon he resteth; yet his eyes are upon their ways.24 They are exalted for a little while, but are gone and brought low; they are taken out of the way as all other, and cut off as the tops of the ears of corn.25 And if it be not so now, who will make me a liar, and make my speech nothing worth?

In this lesson from the Gate of Repentance (Shaar HaTeshuvah), Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explains the concept of "Teshuvas HaMishkal"—repentance through restoring spiritual balance. Every sin creates an imbalance in a person's character and relationship with Hashem. Therefore, genuine teshuvah often requires moving in the opposite direction to repair the damage. If a person indulged excessively in physical pleasures, they should practice restraint. If they abused food, drink, wealth, or other worldly enjoyments, they should consciously limit those same areas to rebuild self-control. Rabbi Wolbe emphasizes that the goal is not self-punishment but restoring proper spiritual equilibrium. A central theme of the episode is that Hashem's greatest desire is not punishment, but relationship. Rabbi Wolbe beautifully explains that repentance begins with a profound realization: Hashem was present the entire time. The greatest gift in life is a close relationship with the Almighty, and every act of teshuvah is simply returning to the One who has been patiently waiting for us all along. Through examples from the Talmud, King David, Adam HaRishon, and Menasheh, one of the most sinful kings in Jewish history, Rabbi Wolbe demonstrates that no matter how serious a person's mistakes may be, the gates of repentance remain open. As long as life remains, Hashem eagerly awaits our return. The lesson concludes with practical guidance for personal growth. Rabbi Wolbe teaches that small acts of self-restraint—delaying a meal, walking instead of taking the easier path, or choosing simplicity over indulgence—strengthen the soul's ability to overcome greater temptations. More importantly, every difficulty we experience can become an opportunity for introspection rather than frustration. Whether a minor inconvenience or a significant life challenge, each moment invites us to ask, "What is Hashem teaching me?" Rather than viewing hardship as punishment, we can see it as a loving reminder that Hashem desires our closeness. His patience is limitless, His compassion is constant, and His greatest wish is that we simply come home. _____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Peter & Becky BotvinRecorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on December 15, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on July 19, 2026_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired! Share your questions at aw@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content.  _____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.  To directly send your questions, comments, and feedback, please email: awolbe@torchweb.org_____________Support Our Mission:Our Mission is Connecting Jews & Judaism.

Every sin creates an imbalance in a person's character and relationship with Hashem. Therefore, genuine teshuvah often requires moving in the opposite direction to repair the damage. If a person indulged excessively in physical pleasures, they should practice restraint. If they abused food, drink, wealth, or other worldly enjoyments, they should consciously limit those same areas to rebuild self-control. Rabbi Wolbe emphasizes that the goal is not self-punishment but restoring proper spiritual equilibrium. A central theme of the episode is that Hashem's greatest desire is not punishment, but relationship. Rabbi Wolbe beautifully explains that repentance begins with a profound realization: Hashem was present the entire time. The greatest gift in life is a close relationship with the Almighty, and every act of teshuvah is simply returning to the One who has been patiently waiting for us all along. Through examples from the Talmud, King David, Adam HaRishon, and Menasheh, one of the most sinful kings in Jewish history, Rabbi Wolbe demonstrates that no matter how serious a person's mistakes may be, the gates of repentance remain open. As long as life remains, Hashem eagerly awaits our return. The lesson concludes with practical guidance for personal growth. Rabbi Wolbe teaches that small acts of self-restraint—delaying a meal, walking instead of taking the easier path, or choosing simplicity over indulgence—strengthen the soul's ability to overcome greater temptations. More importantly, every difficulty we experience can become an opportunity for introspection rather than frustration. Whether a minor inconvenience or a significant life challenge, each moment invites us to ask, "What is Hashem teaching me?" Rather than viewing hardship as punishment, we can see it as a loving reminder that Hashem desires our closeness. His patience is limitless, His compassion is constant, and His greatest wish is that we simply come home._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Peter & Becky BotvinRecorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on December 15, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on July 19, 2026_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired! Share your questions at aw@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content.  _____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.  To directly send your questions, comments, and feedback, please email: awolbe@torchweb.org_____________Support Our Mission:Our Mission is Connecting Jews & Judaism.

Revelation 16The Seven Bowls of God's Wrath[1] Then I heard a loud voice from the temple telling the seven angels, “Go and pour out on the earth the seven bowls of the wrath of God.”[2] So the first angel went and poured out his bowl on the earth, and harmful and painful sores came upon the people who bore the mark of the beast and worshiped its image.[3] The second angel poured out his bowl into the sea, and it became like the blood of a corpse, and every living thing died that was in the sea.[4] The third angel poured out his bowl into the rivers and the springs of water, and they became blood. [5] And I heard the angel in charge of the waters say,“Just are you, O Holy One, who is and who was,for you brought these judgments.[6] For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets,and you have given them blood to drink.It is what they deserve!”[7] And I heard the altar saying,“Yes, Lord God the Almighty,true and just are your judgments!”[8] The fourth angel poured out his bowl on the sun, and it was allowed to scorch people with fire. [9] They were scorched by the fierce heat, and they cursed the name of God who had power over these plagues. They did not repent and give him glory.[10] The fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, and its kingdom was plunged into darkness. People gnawed their tongues in anguish [11] and cursed the God of heaven for their pain and sores. They did not repent of their deeds.[12] The sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great river Euphrates, and its water was dried up, to prepare the way for the kings from the east. [13] And I saw, coming out of the mouth of the dragon and out of the mouth of the beast and out of the mouth of the false prophet, three unclean spirits like frogs. [14] For they are demonic spirits, performing signs, who go abroad to the kings of the whole world, to assemble them for battle on the great day of God the Almighty. [15] (“Behold, I am coming like a thief! Blessed is the one who stays awake, keeping his garments on, that he may not go about naked and be seen exposed!”) [16] And they assembled them at the place that in Hebrew is called Armageddon.The Seventh Bowl[17] The seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air, and a loud voice came out of the temple, from the throne, saying, “It is done!” [18] And there were flashes of lightning, rumblings, peals of thunder, and a great earthquake such as there had never been since man was on the earth, so great was that earthquake. [19] The great city was split into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell, and God remembered Babylon the great, to make her drain the cup of the wine of the fury of his wrath. [20] And every island fled away, and no mountains were to be found. [21] And great hailstones, about one hundred pounds each, fell from heaven on people; and they cursed God for the plague of the hail, because the plague was so severe. (ESV)

“Every man is stupid and without knowledge” we read today in Jeremiah ch, 10 v.14.  But man thinks he is the master of all kinds of knowledge!   But he is without knowledge of the true God, the Creator, “who made the earth by his power, who established the world by his wisdom, and by his understanding stretched out the heavens.” [v.12]           With the powerful telescopes, and special satellites and probes into space, scientists have in recent years learnt how much the universe has been immeasurably stretched out!     In awe of the awareness he had gained of God's creative powers – Jeremiah reflects on his own situation and writes, “I know, O LORD,  that the way of man is not in himself, that it is not in man who walks to direct his steps. Correct me, O LORD, but in justice; not in your anger, lest you bring me to nothing.” [v.23,24]           Surely Jeremiah's attitude and words should also be ours, and should be evident every day in our thoughts and prayers to and through our Saviour, leading us to become increasingly strong in faith to be able to cope with the situation when….!! …   when  the Almighty corrects this world in his anger!           Ponder as to why God told Jeremiah not to pray for the people around him!  We read this yesterday.  Remember!  “As for you, do not pray for this people, or lift up a cry or prayer for them, and do not intercede  for I will not hear you” [v.16]. God repeats this to Jeremiah, look at ch. 11 v.14   “Therefore do not pray for this people, or lift up a cry or prayer on their behalf, for I will not listen when they call to me in the time of their trouble.”             Is the world going to get into a totally desperate situation? Is it not approaching that now!!  It is sometimes said you will never find an atheist on a life raft.  Will the whole world be in a life raft situation?  Most nations are totally entrenched in their minds that  there is no God so we cannot imagine much prayer will be offered when the world is at its wit's end – it will be a scene of mass panic!!  Will our faith be such that we will rise above this situation?  How often do we quote  Luke 21:26    “ …people fainting with fear and with foreboding of what is coming on the world. For the powers of the heavens will be shaken.”  It is how we build up our faith now that will ensure we will not be shaken.  In the areas of our weaknesses let us pray, “Correct me O LORD, but in justice: not in your anger”

Then Job answered and said,2 Even to day is my complaint bitter: my stroke is heavier than my groaning.3 Oh that I knew where I might find him! that I might come even to his seat!4 I would order my cause before him, and fill my mouth with arguments.5 I would know the words which he would answer me, and understand what he would say unto me.6 Will he plead against me with his great power? No; but he would put strength in me.7 There the righteous might dispute with him; so should I be delivered for ever from my judge.8 Behold, I go forward, but he is not there; and backward, but I cannot perceive him:9 On the left hand, where he doth work, but I cannot behold him: he hideth himself on the right hand, that I cannot see him:10 But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold.11 My foot hath held his steps, his way have I kept, and not declined.12 Neither have I gone back from the commandment of his lips; I have esteemed the words of his mouth more than my necessary food.13 But he is in one mind, and who can turn him? and what his soul desireth, even that he doeth.14 For he performeth the thing that is appointed for me: and many such things are with him.15 Therefore am I troubled at his presence: when I consider, I am afraid of him.16 For God maketh my heart soft, and the Almighty troubleth me:17 Because I was not cut off before the darkness, neither hath he covered the darkness from my face.

Then Eliphaz the Temanite answered and said,2 Can a man be profitable unto God, as he that is wise may be profitable unto himself?3 Is it any pleasure to the Almighty, that thou art righteous? or is it gain to him, that thou makest thy ways perfect?4 Will he reprove thee for fear of thee? will he enter with thee into judgment?5 Is not thy wickedness great? and thine iniquities infinite?6 For thou hast taken a pledge from thy brother for nought, and stripped the naked of their clothing.7 Thou hast not given water to the weary to drink, and thou hast withholden bread from the hungry.8 But as for the mighty man, he had the earth; and the honourable man dwelt in it.9 Thou hast sent widows away empty, and the arms of the fatherless have been broken.10 Therefore snares are round about thee, and sudden fear troubleth thee;11 Or darkness, that thou canst not see; and abundance of waters cover thee.12 Is not God in the height of heaven? and behold the height of the stars, how high they are!13 And thou sayest, How doth God know? can he judge through the dark cloud?14 Thick clouds are a covering to him, that he seeth not; and he walketh in the circuit of heaven.15 Hast thou marked the old way which wicked men have trodden?16 Which were cut down out of time, whose foundation was overflown with a flood:17 Which said unto God, Depart from us: and what can the Almighty do for them?18 Yet he filled their houses with good things: but the counsel of the wicked is far from me.19 The righteous see it, and are glad: and the innocent laugh them to scorn.20 Whereas our substance is not cut down, but the remnant of them the fire consumeth.21 Acquaint now thyself with him, and be at peace: thereby good shall come unto thee.22 Receive, I pray thee, the law from his mouth, and lay up his words in thine heart.23 If thou return to the Almighty, thou shalt be built up, thou shalt put away iniquity far from thy tabernacles.24 Then shalt thou lay up gold as dust, and the gold of Ophir as the stones of the brooks.25 Yea, the Almighty shall be thy defence, and thou shalt have plenty of silver.26 For then shalt thou have thy delight in the Almighty, and shalt lift up thy face unto God.27 Thou shalt make thy prayer unto him, and he shall hear thee, and thou shalt pay thy vows.28 Thou shalt also decree a thing, and it shall be established unto thee: and the light shall shine upon thy ways.29 When men are cast down, then thou shalt say, There is lifting up; and he shall save the humble person.30 He shall deliver the island of the innocent: and it is delivered by the pureness of thine hands.

July 18, 2026Today's Reading: Introit for Trinity 7 - Psalm 47:3, 6-8; antiphon: Psalm 47:1-2Daily Lectionary: 1 Samuel 1:21-2:17; Galatians 6:1-18“God reigns over the nations; God sits on his holy throne.” (Psalm 47:8)In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.What does it mean that God reigns over the nations? Does it mean He seeks power over all to control the people of the world? Or is it a declaration of His love for all of creation, and even as sin continues to wreck the world and Satan and his minions ravage and destroy, there is a God, and He hears the cries of those who suffer? It is true: the Lord reigns over all. He is the Almighty. His will is done whether we like it or not. Our God is all-powerful and deserving of worship, as the psalmist says. The Lord sits on His holy throne, and sinners cannot approach Him. Evil cannot stand against Him. This is our God. We can take comfort in knowing the God of all has made Himself known to us. But the all-knowing, all-powerful, all-present God uses His “God-ness” to do wonderful things. God reigns over the nations on His holy throne, not to bring power to Christians but to forgive sinners.From His holy throne, He descended, taking on human flesh to make Himself known to all nations. He came not as a mighty ruler but as a servant. God heard the cries of hurting people from the time of Adam and Eve's first sin. To heal the open wound of a sinful, broken world, He sent forth His only Son. And this good news, this Gospel is not just for one people or nation, but for all people, that many more may come to faith in Christ. Even while the Lord sits on His holy throne, those who are in Christ are not excluded from His presence. Having been made holy, we will see the Lord in all His glory on the Last Day, when all nations and peoples will bow and proclaim the name of the Lord. The Lord our God is mighty and reigns over the nations. He calls them to Himself, that they may remain in His house forever. In the Name + of Jesus. Amen.What God's almighty pow'r has made, in mercy He is keeping. By morning glow or evening shade His eye is never sleeping. Within the kingdom of His might all things are just and good and right: to God all praise and glory!” (LSB 819:2)Deac. Emma Heinz, registrar for Higher Things.

But Job answered and said,2 Hear diligently my speech, and let this be your consolations.3 Suffer me that I may speak; and after that I have spoken, mock on.4 As for me, is my complaint to man? and if it were so, why should not my spirit be troubled?5 Mark me, and be astonished, and lay your hand upon your mouth.6 Even when I remember I am afraid, and trembling taketh hold on my flesh.7 Wherefore do the wicked live, become old, yea, are mighty in power?8 Their seed is established in their sight with them, and their offspring before their eyes.9 Their houses are safe from fear, neither is the rod of God upon them.10 Their bull gendereth, and faileth not; their cow calveth, and casteth not her calf.11 They send forth their little ones like a flock, and their children dance.12 They take the timbrel and harp, and rejoice at the sound of the organ.13 They spend their days in wealth, and in a moment go down to the grave.14 Therefore they say unto God, Depart from us; for we desire not the knowledge of thy ways.15 What is the Almighty, that we should serve him? and what profit should we have, if we pray unto him?16 Lo, their good is not in their hand: the counsel of the wicked is far from me.17 How oft is the candle of the wicked put out! and how oft cometh their destruction upon them! God distributeth sorrows in his anger.18 They are as stubble before the wind, and as chaff that the storm carrieth away.19 God layeth up his iniquity for his children: he rewardeth him, and he shall know it.20 His eyes shall see his destruction, and he shall drink of the wrath of the Almighty.21 For what pleasure hath he in his house after him, when the number of his months is cut off in the midst?22 Shall any teach God knowledge? seeing he judgeth those that are high.23 One dieth in his full strength, being wholly at ease and quiet.24 His breasts are full of milk, and his bones are moistened with marrow.25 And another dieth in the bitterness of his soul, and never eateth with pleasure.26 They shall lie down alike in the dust, and the worms shall cover them.27 Behold, I know your thoughts, and the devices which ye wrongfully imagine against me.28 For ye say, Where is the house of the prince? and where are the dwelling places of the wicked?29 Have ye not asked them that go by the way? and do ye not know their tokens,30 That the wicked is reserved to the day of destruction? they shall be brought forth to the day of wrath.31 Who shall declare his way to his face? and who shall repay him what he hath done?32 Yet shall he be brought to the grave, and shall remain in the tomb.33 The clods of the valley shall be sweet unto him, and every man shall draw after him, as there are innumerable before him.34 How then comfort ye me in vain, seeing in your answers there remaineth falsehood?

Whom does Jesus save? Mark 7:25–8:10 prepares us for the hearing of God's Word, publicly read, in the holy assembly on the coming Lord's Day. In these twenty-four verses of Holy Scripture, the Holy Spirit teaches us that Jesus is an abundant Savior for a multitude from all the nations. The devotional explores Jesus's ministry in Gentile territories to demonstrate that He is the Savior for all nations, not just Israel. Through the accounts of the Syrophoenician woman and the healing of the deaf man, the text highlights how Christ fulfills Old Testament prophecies by extending grace and power beyond Jewish boundaries. The feeding of the four thousand further illustrates His abundant provision and the profound spiritual hunger that He gives even Gentile sinners. These events collectively affirm that Jesus does all things well, fulfilling every promise regarding His role as Mediator and Redeemer. Believers are encouraged to trust in His complete sufficiency and prioritize nearness to Him above physical comfort.

Presented by Jenn Miller Have you ever experienced such bitter circumstances that it feels like the Lord is against you? Naomi did. In the book of Ruth, we read Naomi and her family were forced to move to a different country and culture because of a famine in their homeland. Just imagine packing up two children with your husband and leaving everything you ever knew to start again in a new culture. But shortly after arriving, Naomi's husband died. After being there 10 years, her sons married, which probably seemed hopeful and joyous. However, any joy was short-lived as both of her sons passed away too. At this time in history, a woman with no husband, no sons, and no extended male family members had little chance of survival. Not only did Naomi face abject poverty, but all her hopes and expectations for what her life would look like fell to pieces. After coming back to Israel, she quickly tells those who once knew her to not call her Naomi (meaning pleasant) but Mara (meaning bitter). In Ruth 1:20-21 we get a glimpse into how Naomi viewed God in her suffering. She says, Call me Mara, because the Almighty has made my life very bitter. I went away full, but the Lord has brought me back empty. Why call me Naomi? The Lord has afflicted me; the Almighty has brought misfortune upon me (Ruth 1:20-21). Interestingly, Naomi's lament isn't one directed to God—she doesn't come to him with her burdens, but she does attribute her troubles to him. I think this lack of coming to God is what allowed the bitterness to grow. Have you been there? Have you experienced extreme loss and found yourself thinking, “Why would God allow such bitterness to come into my life?” If you are in this kind of suffering today, where it feels like the Lord has dealt you a lot that is more suffering than you can handle, keep reading the book of Ruth. In Naomi's suffering, all she could see was the loss, but throughout the book, God shows that he had not forgotten Naomi. He was actively working for her good. By the end of the story, the people around her are praising God because of how he redeemed Naomi's story and brought joy. Friend, in the depths of your pain, don't let bitterness grow. Bring your pain to Jesus. He will walk with you through it and is at work even now for your redemption.

Witness Wednesday #216 Beth B. Today's Witness Wednesday testimony is from a woman I met through the Big Life mentoring group. I had put a post in the group asking if some of them would be willing to read my book and then leave an honest comment on Amazon afterward. A few of them decided it would be fun to all read it together, so they started a Facebook group to do a book study for my daily devotional book called Walk Boldly With Jesus Devotional. Who I Am: Discovering God's Truth About Me. Beth made a post in that group asking for prayers, as she had been having some pain in her abdomen, and when she went for a CT scan, they found a different problem. I do not know Beth very well, so I didn't have her phone number or any way of contacting her other than Facebook. So, I decided to just type a prayer in the chat. This is something I like to do when people ask for prayers. This way, they know someone is praying for them, and many times, even just reading a prayer from someone can bring peace in a difficult situation. Luckily, Beth got more than just peace from the Lord. I will let her tell you what happened next. Take it away, Beth! I have been having left upper quadrant pain since May 5th. I have been in constant pain since May 5th. I was rushed to the ER on May 14th. They did a CT of my abdomen, which they also got some of my lungs. On that CT scan, they found out that I had three lung nodules, five at the lower base of the left lung, seven at the middle lobe, and almost 10 at the upper lobe of the left lung. And I also had a hole in the middle of my two lungs, of my right and left lung, literally right in the middle. There was a little pinhole, well, a little hole. Anyways, so I had a follow-up visit on May 29th from the ER visit with my doctor. I didn't get to see the doctor. I saw the nurse practitioner. Anyways, she went line by line through every test. I mean, I was there for eight hours at the ER trying to find an answer why I'm having abdominal pain. No one can find out. But anyways, so she went line by line trying to find out all these scans and testing that I did. So she was really concerned because I do have an extensive history of cancer. In 21, I had six cancers. So I don't smoke and I don't vape. So the fact that I had three lung nodules, she was highly concerned that it may have been cancerous. And I also was concerned about that too. So I'm in the prayer group. I'm in the group with Catherine about walkability with Jesus. Okay. And I have really been trying to keep this in. I don't want to tell people. I don't want to be like, you know, like, woe is me. It's not woe is me. I told Catherine and the group on June 12th about the lung nodules that I just wanted some prayers. This is Catherine's prayer. And this prayer is very important for what I'm going to tell you. Dear Heavenly Father, we ask that you heal Beth, that you are the great physician, you are the miracle worker, and a way maker. We know that you can heal these nodules and allow her to breathe easily once again. We believe, Lord, help our unbelief. Lord, we ask in the name of Jesus that you heal these nodules before she goes to the lung specialist. It can also be once, it can be all at once or quietly over the next few weeks. Lord, we pray in the name of Jesus that you heal Beth and that she starts to breathe better and better every day. Lord, I ask that you give her new lungs just as you did for the father in Bobby Dawkins' book. His daughter cried out to him and asking for a brand new lungs. Lord, we ask for that for Beth too. We ask, we thank you for answering our prayers. You tell us over and over in the Bible that when we ask and we are asking, we are confident you will answer. We are confident that you will hear us and that you're taking care of Beth. Thank you, Lord. We love you so much. You're the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. You're the Almighty. We ask all this in the abundant name of the Lord Jesus. Amen. Okay. So I had another specialist appointment again for the abdominal pain. They sent me back again for another CT scan. So I went to see the pulmonologist on the 30th. Okay. So when I went into the pulmonologist on the 30th to find out why I have these nodules, he says, Bethann, you were at the ER on the 14th. I said, yes. He showed me my scan. He showed me my lungs. He says, these are your lungs. These are your three nodules. This is your hole. And I said, yes. He's like, so I was preparing for this exam on Monday and I was 100% fully ready to send you for biopsies, like extensive testing to figure out the why. You had a CT scan yesterday. I said, yes. And he says, well, when I was preparing for my, because I was the first patient after lunch, he says, during my lunch, I reviewed my afternoon charts and your CT scan came in from yesterday. And I don't know if you were praying for a miracle. I don't know if you were expecting a miracle, but you got a miracle. You have new lungs and you have young lungs. And he showed me my, my CT scan from the 29th. He says, you literally have new lungs. They are young lungs. I said, young. I said, I'm 54. And he says, well, you would not, I would not know that you were 54 looking at these young lungs. I'm like, Oh my gosh. Like that is exactly what Catherine prayed for. She prayed for new lungs, new lungs. And I've added on the young lungs just because I want younger ones. So that was my praise. Like I am like, like, and then when I came out of the pulmonologist, there's not even a church, like locally, like around it, but there were church bells ringing, like for no rhyme or reason. Like, there are literally church bells ringing. I was like, Oh, thank you, Lord. Thank you, Lord. Thank you, Lord. And I like fell to the knees, and people are looking at me, and I'm like, you don't understand. I just received the miracle. So that's my miracle. That's my shout out. Can you believe it? New lungs. God is so good! Thank you so much, Beth, for sharing your story with us and for giving God all the Glory. When we share the miracles that God is doing in our lives, it builds the faith of all those around us, and then they start to believe that if God can do it for you, then maybe He will do it for them too!

The Name Above Every Name Conference One Receiving the Name The Gift Before the Method “At the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth.” — Philippians 2:10 There is perhaps no prayer more beloved in the Christian East than the Jesus Prayer. “Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me.” It is spoken by monks in their cells, by hermits in the desert, by laborers at their work, by the elderly in nursing homes, by the sick in their hospital beds, and by countless hidden souls who have learned to carry the Name of Christ as their constant companion. Yet before we speak of the prayer itself, we must ask a more fundamental question. Why this Name? Not simply why this prayer, but why this Name? Our age has become fascinated with methods. We search for techniques that promise peace, concentration, or spiritual experience. We want to know how many repetitions to make, how to regulate our breathing, how to quiet the mind, how to pray without distraction. These questions are not unimportant. The Fathers address them with great sobriety. But they are never their starting point. The Christian life does not begin with a method. It begins with a Person. The Apostles did not first receive a prayer rule. They encountered Christ. Everything else followed from that encounter. This is the first lesson that Archimandrite Zacharias never tires of repeating. The Name of Jesus is not a sacred formula. It is not a mantra. It possesses no power apart from the living Person whom it reveals. When we invoke the Name, we are not repeating syllables. We are standing before the living God who has become man for our salvation. This changes everything. Prayer is no longer something we accomplish. It becomes Someone whom we meet. The whole mystery of Christianity is contained within this movement. We do not ascend toward God through our own efforts. God has descended to us. The eternal Word has taken flesh. The invisible God has received a human face. The unknowable One has given us His Name. The Name is therefore a gift before it is a practice. Christ Himself places it upon our lips. He gives us His own Name because He desires communion with us. The initiative always belongs to Him. This is why every genuine spiritual life begins with gratitude rather than achievement. We do not earn the Name. We receive it. ⸻⸻⸻ The Scriptures reveal something astonishing about the Name of God. 2 Throughout the Old Testament the divine Name remains veiled in mystery. Moses encounters the burning bush and asks, “What is your Name?” The answer is both revelation and concealment. “I AM WHO I AM.” God makes Himself known while remaining infinitely beyond comprehension. Then, in the fullness of time, something utterly new occurs. The Angel commands Joseph: “You shall call His Name Jesus.” The infinite God now bears a human Name. The One whom no man could behold enters history as an infant carried in His mother's arms. The Name Jesus is not merely a title. It is the revelation of the humility of God. The Almighty has made Himself accessible. He has entered our weakness. He has become One whom we may call upon in every circumstance of life. The Name itself proclaims the Gospel. Every time we whisper it, we confess that God has come near. ⸻⸻⸻ The Fathers teach us that there is an inseparable bond between the Name and the Person. To invoke the Name with faith is already to stand before Christ. This is why the Church surrounds His Name with such reverence. 3 The Apostle tells us that God has bestowed upon Christ “the Name which is above every name.” Not because the sound of the word possesses magical power, but because the Person who bears that Name is the eternal Son of God. When we pray, “Lord Jesus Christ...” we are already making a confession of faith. “Lord.” He is God. “Jesus.” He is the Savior who entered history. “Christ.” He is the Anointed One promised by the prophets. “Son of God.” He shares eternally in the Father's divine life. Everything is already contained within these few words. The prayer is theology condensed into love. ⸻⸻⸻ Archimandrite Zacharias repeatedly reminds us that the Jesus Prayer is fundamentally relational. This may sound obvious, but it is easily forgotten. We often reduce prayer to something we do. The Fathers speak instead of Someone before whom we stand. 4 The heart of prayer is presence. Not first our awareness of God. But God's faithful presence before us. Long before we began seeking Him, He sought us. Long before we learned His Name, He knew ours. Long before we loved Him, He loved us. Prayer is our answer to a love that has already preceded us. This protects us from one of the greatest temptations in the spiritual life. We begin to measure prayer by our experience. Was it peaceful? Was it distracted? Did I feel anything? Did grace seem close? The Fathers ask another question. Did you remain before Christ? If so, then prayer has already begun. Faithfulness is greater than consolation. Love is greater than feelings. Presence is greater than success. ⸻⸻⸻ This understanding also transforms repentance. Many people imagine repentance as a movement away from themselves toward God. 5 The Gospel reveals the opposite. Repentance is the discovery that Christ has already come searching for us. Adam hid. God sought him. The prodigal wandered. The Father watched the road. Peter denied Christ. Christ looked upon Peter. Everything begins with God's movement toward us. When we whisper, “Have mercy on me,” we are not persuading Christ to become merciful. We are awakening to the mercy that has already embraced us. The prayer does not change God's heart. It gradually changes ours. ⸻⸻⸻ Because the Name is a gift, it must be received with reverence. The Fathers never speak of the Jesus Prayer casually. It is entrusted to the humble. Not because God withholds Himself from others, but because pride cannot receive what humility gladly welcomes. A proud heart uses prayer. 6 A humble heart receives it. There is all the difference in the world. Perhaps this is why the prayer becomes simpler as one matures. At first we seek to master it. Later we discover that it is slowly mastering us. At first we imagine we are carrying the Name. Eventually we discover that the Name has been carrying us all along. ⸻⸻⸻ As we begin this retreat, let us lay aside every desire for extraordinary experiences. Let us not seek methods before seeking Christ. Let us not become preoccupied with progress. The greatest grace would simply be this: To receive the Name once again as though hearing it for the first time. To whisper it with reverence. To hold it gently within the heart. To allow it to accompany every joy and every sorrow. To believe that every sincere invocation of the Name is already an encounter with the living Christ. The whole Christian life begins here. Not with our search for God. But with God's immeasurable gift of Himself. And because He has given us His Name, we need never fear that He is far away. 7 The Name upon our lips is already the sign that Christ stands at the door of the heart and knocks. May we open to Him with humility, faith, and love. 8

Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at ⁠⁠⁠PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal ⁠⁠⁠today!What happens when the giants you are facing—whether overwhelmingly massive or seemingly insignificant—trick you into believing God doesn't care about your daily struggles? Join Jaime on the Praying Christian Women Podcast for an inspiring devotional on Psalm 68, a triumphant and powerful psalm that celebrates the unmatched bigness of God and reminds us that no earthly enemy or obstacle stands a chance against Him. Jaime unpacks the subtle lies of the enemy that convince us our difficulties are either too monumental to conquer or too unspiritual for God's attention. Likening our burdens to fragile idols, she discusses how easily our biggest fears can be visualized as thick smoke blown away by the wind, or as little wax figurines melting away in the radiant, burning presence of the Almighty. Sharing her own transparent reflections as a parent, Jaime encourages us to intentionally bring every sorrow, question, and workplace complaint to a loving Heavenly Father who never measures or dismisses our pain. Just as the ancient world looked to the towering, imposing peaks of Mount Bashan—a symbol of spiritual rebellion—we are reminded that God often works in an "upside-down kingdom." He chose the humbler, smaller mountain of Zion for His holy abode, proving that our blessings and His presence don't rely on human definitions of greatness. Come ready to evaluate your own spiritual burdens—the deeply personal pain, the exhausting situational frustrations, and the looming giants standing in your way. Let this episode remind you that God is always waiting with open arms to carry your heavy load and give rest to the weary. Because He is a victorious God who rides through the deserts, who acts as a father to the fatherless, and whose immense power can melt away even the most intimidating strongholds in our lives.

Revelation 15The Seven Angels with Seven Plagues[1] Then I saw another sign in heaven, great and amazing, seven angels with seven plagues, which are the last, for with them the wrath of God is finished.[2] And I saw what appeared to be a sea of glass mingled with fire—and also those who had conquered the beast and its image and the number of its name, standing beside the sea of glass with harps of God in their hands. [3] And they sing the song of Moses, the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying,“Great and amazing are your deeds,O Lord God the Almighty!Just and true are your ways,O King of the nations![4] Who will not fear, O Lord,and glorify your name?For you alone are holy.All nations will comeand worship you,for your righteous acts have been revealed.”[5] After this I looked, and the sanctuary of the tent of witness in heaven was opened, [6] and out of the sanctuary came the seven angels with the seven plagues, clothed in pure, bright linen, with golden sashes around their chests. [7] And one of the four living creatures gave to the seven angels seven golden bowls full of the wrath of God who lives forever and ever, [8] and the sanctuary was filled with smoke from the glory of God and from his power, and no one could enter the sanctuary until the seven plagues of the seven angels were finished. (ESV)

Psalm 91: A Truth Satan Fears Psalm 91: He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress, my God. In Him I will trust. Surely He will deliver you from the snare of the fowler — that means the secret traps that you don't see coming your way — and from the perilous pestilence. In the original translation, the way that reads is: from the perversion that comes into a society when the restraining hand of God is lifted off of it. He will deliver you from secret traps and from the perversions that are going to be prevalent in this and other societies in the last days. He will cover you with His feathers and under His wings you shall take refuge. His truth will be your shield and your buckler. You shall not be afraid of the terror by night, nor of the arrow that flies by day. Whether there are acts of terrorism in various countries throughout the world, or threats even of nuclear war, the Bible says you will not be afraid. There will be a confidence that God puts in your heart that is born of the Spirit of God. It is born of a trust in the keeping power of God. No matter what happens, no matter what difficulty comes our way, you will not be afraid. Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness, nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday. A thousand may fall at your side and ten thousand at your right hand, but it shall not come near you. Only with your eyes shall you look and see the reward of the wicked. Because you have made the Lord, who is my refuge, even the Most High, your dwelling place, no evil shall befall you, nor shall any plague come near your dwelling. For He shall give His angels charge over you to keep you in all your ways. In their hands they shall bear you up, lest you dash your foot against a stone. You shall tread upon the lion and the cobra, the young lion and the serpent you shall trample underfoot. Because He has set His love upon me, therefore I will deliver him. I will set him on high, because he has known my name. He shall call upon me and I will answer him. I will be with him in trouble. I will deliver him and honor him. With long life will I satisfy him and show him my salvation. This psalm — Psalm 91 — contains a truth about God that Satan himself fears. He fears that if it's believed, it would instill a barrier of promise in the hearts of those who believe in it that no power of hell can get through and breach. That's why he is afraid of Psalm 91. How Satan Used Psalm 91 to Tempt Jesus It was this psalm that Satan quoted when he tempted Jesus in the wilderness in Matthew 4. Actually, in the temptation of Christ — after he was baptized in the Jordan and went into the wilderness, led of the Spirit to be tempted by Satan — this was the only scripture that Satan did not fully quote. He quoted a part of it, but not the whole scripture. He came to the Son of God. Now, he knew who he was fighting with. He was contesting with the Son of God. I don't know how he knew it, but Satan knew who Jesus Christ was, and he had a sense of what his mission was on the earth. The first temptation he brought to him was essentially this: If you are the Son of God, command these stones to be made bread. In other words, if you are the Son of God, why are you not being fed? Why are you hungry? If you are the Son of God, there must be a resident power within you — use it for yourself, use it for your own benefit. Turn these stones to bread. Of course, that's what the devil did — that's why he fell from heaven. He was not content with the ways, the will, and the word of God. He wanted something higher than he was assigned by God. He was tempting Christ to change his situation by his own power and his own influence. Then he took him to the holy city, set him on the pinnacle of the temple, and said again: If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down. For it is written, He will give His angels charge over you, and in their hands they shall bear you up, lest you dash your foot against a stone. Here's the more insidious temptation as I see this. In effect, what I think the devil was saying — and this is my opinion, my conjecture — he was basically saying: I'm going to throw you down. And what makes you think that when your feet hit the stone that somehow there are going to be angels there to help you? What makes you think that God will preserve you? What makes you think that God will protect you? What makes you think that God will raise you up? What makes you think he will send angels to be part of the process of bringing you to the conclusion of what your life is supposed to be? If you do believe this, throw yourself down. But I want to remind you — that is not the whole scripture. He left a line out. Psalm 91 says: He will give His angels charge over you to keep you in all your ways. In their hands they will bear you up, lest you dash your foot against a stone. It didn't say it's just for one specific event. God is going to assign angels to you to keep you in all of the journey of your life — the good times, the bad times, the easy times, the hard times, the times you understand, the times you don't, the times when it looks prosperous and the times when it looks hopeless. God is not going to fail you. God is going to keep you. And there will be a heavenly presence to assist you this whole time, lest you should be overthrown or overcome by the temptations or the testings that are all around you. And lastly, seeing he could not turn Jesus from the truth of the word of God, he said to him: All the kingdoms of the world and all their glory belong to me. If you will fall down and worship me, you don't have to go to the cross. Basically, that's what he was saying. Then you don't have to die. You can have it all if you'll just bow down and worship me. And Jesus said, Away with you, Satan. It is written, you shall worship the Lord your God, and him only shall you serve. Matthew 4:11 says: Then the devil left him, and behold, angels came and ministered to him. Praise be to God. That's exactly what the scripture says. He will give His angels charge over you to keep you in all your ways. In their hands they will bear you up, lest you dash your foot against a stone. What Satan Fears We Will Discover Now, what was the devil so afraid of in Psalm 91 — that if you and I laid hold of it, his power over us would be broken? His power causes us to think that somehow God won't provide for us in the midst of our hunger or our hardship or whatever it is that you and I have to face in the days ahead. The promise of God is that we will have provision. Seek first the kingdom of God, and all these things shall be added to you. First of all, he was afraid that we would find this hidden place of God where our confidence in his keeping power can no longer be broken. He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High — Psalm 91:1 — shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. And I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress, my God. In him I will trust. I will trust on the good days. I will trust on the bad days. I will trust when I hit the notes in the song. I will trust when my voice cracks and I can't hit them. I will trust when there's money in the bank, and I will trust when I have to trust God to pay my bills. I will trust in God. This has to be our prayer in this generation: God, take me to this place. Take me to this place of trust in you. Oh, Jesus Christ, Son of God, don't let me trust in my own reasonings, my own resources, my own thinking, my own abilities, my own strength. God Almighty, give me the ability to trust in your word — that the things you say to me are true. They cannot be contravened. They cannot be thrown away. God Almighty, you cannot be tested. Satan said to Jesus, throw yourself...

Welcome to Day 2902 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom. Day 2902 – Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 141:1-10 Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2902 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2902 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. Title for today's Wisdom-Trek is: The Incense of the Heart – Standing Guard at the Gates of the Soul On our last trek together, as we climbed through the rugged terrain of Psalm One Hundred Forty, we witnessed David standing in the celestial courtroom of the Almighty, pleading for protection against violent adversaries. We felt the stinging spray of their serpentine words, and we saw the hidden nets they spread along his path. Today, we step directly onto a contiguous trail as we enter Psalm One Hundred Forty-One, verses one through ten. This psalm serves as a profound, beautiful companion piece to our previous study. But as we look closely at the landscape of this new passage, we notice a fascinating, highly critical shift in David's focus. In the previous psalm, he was primarily concerned with the external weapons of his enemies, but now, in Psalm One Hundred Forty-One, David turns his vision inward. He recognizes a sobering spiritual truth that every wise trekker must eventually master: the greatest danger we face in times of heavy crisis is not just what our enemies might do to us, but what the crisis itself might cause us to do, or say, in return. David realizes that under the pressure of hostility, his own heart, his own mouth, and his own appetites could easily betray him, causing him to blend into the very wickedness he is fighting against. The first segment is: The Cosmic Incense: Elevating Prayer to the Heavenly Throne Room Let us listen to the opening movements of this beautiful prayer, where David combines his urgent thoughts in verse one and verse two, establishing his focal point in the heavenly realm. O Lord, I am calling to you. Please hurry! Listen to me when I cry to you for help. Accept my prayer as incense offered to you, and my upraised hands as an evening offering. David begins with an intense, breathless plea, crying out, “O Lord, I am calling to you. Please hurry! Listen to me when I cry to you for help.” But then, notice how he frames the spiritual mechanics of his communication, praying, “Accept my prayer as incense offered to you, and my upraised hands as an evening offering.” To fully grasp the magnitude of this imagery, we must look at it through the ancient Israelite divine-council worldview. When David lifts his hands and asks for his prayers to be received as incense, he is not just using pretty, poetic metaphors. He is operating with a deep understanding of the cosmic temple. In ancient Israel, the earthly tabernacle, and later the temple, were designed as physical copies of Yahweh's heavenly palace. In that heavenly throne room, the Sovereign King sits enthroned, surrounded by His holy council of angelic beings. The burning of holy incense on the earthly altar represented the sweet-smelling cloud of praise and intercession that continuously rises before the true, cosmic throne. David, quite possibly cut off from the physical tabernacle while fleeing for his life in the wilderness, realizes something spectacular. Even without an earthly altar, or a physical priesthood, his authentic, desperate cry for help can bypass earthly structures entirely. By the power of faith, his spoken words become spiritual incense, rising directly into the celestial assembly. When he lifts his hands, he is presenting his very body as the evening sacrifice. He is appealing directly to the ultimate Supreme Court of the universe, asking the Great Suzerain to pay immediate attention to his case, because the spiritual pressure around him has reached a critical, breaking point. The second segment is: Guarding the Gates: The Battle for Words and Appetites With his eyes firmly fixed on the heavenly King, David immediately launches into an incredible, defensive prayer for his own soul, grouping together the deep insights found in verse three and verse four. Take control of my mouth, O Lord, and guard my lips. Don't let me drift toward evil or take part in wicked deeds. Don't let me share in the delicacies of those who do evil. Here, David prays a prayer of profound humility, saying, “Take control of my mouth, O Lord, and guard my lips. Don't let me drift toward evil or take part in wicked deeds. Don't let me share in the delicacies of those who do evil.” This is a stunning moment of vulnerability for a warrior king. David looks at the wicked people who are surrounding him, and he does not just see a political or physical threat; he sees a highly contagious spiritual disease. He knows that when we are constantly surrounded by gaslighting, lying, and malicious slander, our natural, human instinct is to strike back using those exact same low-level tactics. We want to retaliate with bitter, venomous speech. Therefore, David asks Yahweh to place a divine sentinel, a heavenly guard, over his lips. He understands that if he loses control of his tongue, he opens the gates of his soul to the forces of chaos. Furthermore, David pleads, “Don't let me share in the delicacies of those who do evil.” In the ancient Near East, eating at someone's table was a profound act of covenant fellowship and alignment. The “delicacies” of the wicked represent the material wealth, the social status, and the temporary, luxurious benefits that come from participating in corrupt, systemic evil. In the divine-council context, partaking in these wicked feasts was often associated with honoring rival spiritual powers and bowing to the cultural idols of compromise. David is begging God for the spiritual discipline to refuse the attractive, comfortable bribes of the enemy, choosing instead the rugged path of righteousness, even if it means experiencing physical deprivation in the wilderness. The third segment is: The Healing Wound: Choosing Righteous Rebuke Over Wicked Fellowship The narrative of David's internal defense takes an extraordinary turn in verse five, as he contrasts the dangerous flattery of the wicked with the painful, yet life-giving correction of the righteous. Let the godly strike me! It will be a kindness. If they correct me, it is soothing medicine. Don't let me refuse it. But I pray constantly against the wicked deeds of evil people. David makes a remarkable declaration, stating, “Let the godly strike me! It will be a kindness. If they correct me, it is soothing medicine. Don't let me refuse it. But I pray constantly against the wicked deeds of evil people.” This verse contains a massive chunk of wisdom for our daily trek of life. David recognizes that if he is going to stay on the path of integrity, he desperately needs accountability. He would much rather receive a harsh, painful, face-to-face correction from a godly person who loves his soul, than to sit at a luxurious table receiving the smooth, deceptive flattery of the wicked. He calls godly rebuke “soothing medicine,” or anointing oil for the head. It might sting at first, but its ultimate purpose is to heal, restore, and protect. The proud adversaries who are trying to destroy David believe they are completely above accountability. They surround themselves only with yes-men who applaud their wickedness. But David, aligning himself with the wisdom of Yahweh's kingdom, opens his heart to correction. Even as he remains completely open to being corrected by the righteous, his stance against cosmic and human evil remains totally uncompromising. He concludes this thought by noting that his life is locked in continuous, unceasing prayer against the destructive, wicked deeds of those who have rejected the ways of the Most High. The fourth segment is: The Overthrow of Tyrants: Justice at the Mouth of Sheol The narrative now shifts outward once again, as David looks ahead to the ultimate, inescapable fate of those corrupt leaders who refuse to repent, blending his thoughts in verse six and verse seven. When their leaders are thrown down from a cliff, they will listen to my words and find them true. Like rocks that are split and shattered, the bones of the wicked lie scattered at the mouth of the grave. David looks into the future of cosmic justice, declaring, “When their leaders are thrown down from a cliff, they will listen to my words and find them true. Like rocks that are split and shattered, the bones of the wicked lie scattered at the mouth of the grave.”...

The Gemara (Shabbat 129a) teaches that one should ensure to purchase shoes for his feet even if this necessitates selling the "ceiling beams of his house." This might mean that the protection provided by shoes for the feet is more important than the protection provided by the roof of one's home. Elsewhere (Pesahim 113b), the Gemara warns that one who goes about barefoot is "excommunicated by G-d." Different reasons have been given for why one should not walk about without shoes. Rashi explains that walking around barefoot is undignified, and Torah Jews are obligated to conduct themselves in a dignified manner as befitting the children of the Almighty. Others explain, very simply, that walking around barefoot is dangerous, as one's feet might be bitten or stung, or might step on a sharp object. Some have noted that the Hebrew word for shoe – Na'al – may be read as an acrostic for the words "Nahash" (snake), "Akrab" (scorpion), "Lahash" ("hissing"). Similarly, some sources warn that one who walks about barefoot is more susceptible to catching a cold or some other virus. Rav Abraham Azulai (d. 1643) offered a Kabbalistic reason for this Halacha, explaining that after Adam and Hava's sin in Gan Eden, G-d placed a cursed upon the ground ("Arura Ha'adama Ba'aburecha" – Bereshit 3:17). It became the domain of the snake, which represents the Yeser Ha'ra (evil inclination) and forces of impurity, and slithers on the ground and eats the dirt. One who walks barefoot, touching the ground without any obstruction, exposes himself to the ground's impurity. Indeed, some commentators explain that the Egyptian sorcerers, who succeeded in mimicking some of the wonders that Moshe Rabbenu performed – such as changing their staffs to snakes, and transforming the water into blood – received their magical powers from the forces of impurity within the ground. For this reason, they were unable to match Moshe after he brought the third plague – the plague of Kinim (lice) – because the earth underneath Egypt was overrun by vermin (Shemot 8:13), and thus they could not access the forces of impurity. According to the Kabbalists, then, one must wear shoes in order not to connect himself to the Tum'a (impure) in the ground. In fact, some suggest that the word "Na'al" is an acrostic representing the phrase "Nahash Afar Lahmo" – "the snake's bread is dirt," alluding to the function of shoes to shield a person from the impurity of the ground, the domain of the snake. In theory, these different reasons yield interesting exceptions to this Halacha. For example, in warm climates, or during the summertime, walking about barefoot will not likely result in illness. And, in societies where walking barefoot has become accepted, it is not considered undignified. The Kabbalists teach that the ground of Eretz Yisrael does not contain the Tum'a that is present in the ground throughout the rest of the world. In practice, however, since we must concern ourselves with all these reasons, one should avoid walking about barefoot everywhere – even in warm regions, in societies where this is accepted, and in Eretz Yisrael. Inside one's home, however, none of these reasons apply: there is no concern of getting sick or being bitten or stung; there is no requirement to appear especially dignified within the privacy of one's home; and the floors are tiled such that one does not step directly on the ground. Thus, it is entirely permissible to walk about barefoot in one's home. This is the ruling of Hacham Ovadia Yosef. One should avoid walking about outside without shoes even if he wears socks. Although the socks protect the feet from the Tum'a of the ground, they do not offer protection from small creatures or sharp objects, and, in most societies, this would be considered undignified. Some sources mention the practice of going outside barefoot as a form of self-affliction for the purpose of achieving atonement for one's sins. People would intentionally endure the discomfort of walking barefoot and hurting themselves, or getting sick, so they could earn expiation for their wrongdoing. (This resembles the account of how the Arizal would roll in the snow during the winter in order to earn atonement.) Hacham Ovadia Yosef, however, opposed all practices of self-affliction, including voluntary fasts. He noted the Gemara's teaching that the Nazir must bring a sin-offering to atone for his self-denial, abstaining from wine. All the more so, we are discouraged from afflicting ourselves unnecessarily by fasting and causing ourselves pain. Hashem expects us to enjoy – in moderation – the comforts and joys of our world, not to deprive ourselves of them. Moreover, voluntary fasts and other extreme measures of piety can often bring more spiritual harm than benefit, as they frequently result in arrogance. Many people who observe such practices ensure to put themselves on display, or to tell their peers about what they do, in order to earn their admiration and esteem – a kind of exhibitionism which is the diametric opposite of piety. Primarily, though, Hacham Ovadia opposed these practices because they lead a person to overlook the most important and most beneficial means of atonement – Torah study. King Shlomo teaches in Mishleh (16:6), "Be'hesed Ve'emet Yechupar Avon" – "Iniquity shall be atoned through kindness and truth," and "Emet" ("truth") refers to Torah learning. In fact, in the blessing of the Amida in which we ask Hashem to help us repent, we begin, "Hashibenu Abinu Le'Toratecha" – "Bring us back, our Father, to Your Torah." The most important and most effective way to rectify one's wrongdoing and earn atonement is through Torah study. The sanctity of Torah has the ability to purge and cleanse the soul of all impurities. I am often approached by people seeking advice for how to attain forgiveness for various sins, and my response is always to attend more Torah classes and devote more time to Torah learning. This isn't my idea – it was written explicitly by Rabbenu Yona (Spain, 1200-1263) in his famous Iggeret Teshuba – a brief guide for those seeking to repent. He says that on the day that a person decides to perform Teshuba, he should immediately commit to increase his Torah learning: if he is accustomed to learning one page, then he should learn two; if he is accustomed to learning for one hour, then he should learn for two hours. Even regarding the six weeks of Shobabim, when there is a time-honored custom to fast on Mondays and Thursdays, the Sadikim teach that spending several hours a day learning achieves more than fasting. This is especially so in today's day and age, when we are not accustomed to abstaining from food, and fasting thus causes frailty which diminishes our productivity and our ability to learn Torah and observe Misvot. It must be emphasized that Torah learning has the ability to atone for even the most grievous sins. The Gemara in Masechet Menahot (110) teaches that one who learns Torah does not need to offer sacrifices for atonement. Even the sin of Lashon Ha'ra – a sin as severe as murder, idol-worship and immorality combined – can be atoned through genuine repentance and Torah learning. Rav Chaim of Volozhin (1749-1821) related that people would ask his mentor, the Gaon of Vilna (1720-1797), how they could atone for the severe sin of Hosa'at Zera ("wasting seed"), and he would respond, "If they devote themselves to Torah study, then they have nothing to worry about." The Gaon of Vilna did not advise these individuals to observe fasts or practice forms of self-affliction or self-deprivation; instead, he urged them to devote time to Torah learning, as this is the universal remedy for all spiritual maladies. (It goes without saying that rectifying this sin also requires common-sense measures such as avoiding places and devices that trigger the Yeser Ha'ra.) We should add that reading the Zohar, too, is beneficial for achieving forgiveness. Even if one does not understand what he reads, the words themselves have inherent sanctity that spiritually cleanse a person. In fact, the Arizal had the custom of reading a section of Tikkuneh Zohar each day from Rosh Hodesh Elul through Yom Kippur, when he would complete the entire work. Clearly, then, one should avoid all measures of self-deprivation, and should instead care for his physical wellbeing so he has the strength and mental energy to devote himself to Torah learning as much as he can.

The Pineapples That Weren't Mine #RTTBROS #Nightlight"If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me." - Luke 9:23 (KJV)I heard about an old missionary named Otto Koning who spent years in the jungles of New Guinea trying to reach a village for Christ. To break up the monotony of his diet, he planted a hundred pineapple shoots and waited three long years for them to ripen. The day they finally did, someone stole every last one, and it turned out to be the very man Otto had hired to help him plant them. When confronted, the man just shrugged and said, "My hands plant them, my mouth eats them."For seven years Otto fought for those pineapples. He threatened to close the mission clinic. He brought in a guard dog. Nothing worked, and worse, nothing about his anger looked like Jesus. In seven years of preaching, he never saw a single soul come to Christ.Then at a seminar back in the States, Otto realized something that changed everything. His anger was not really about the fruit. It was about ownership. He was gripping something with both fists and calling it his right. So he went back to that garden and gave it away. He told God, out loud, that the pineapples belonged to Him now.Not long after, the villagers stole from him again, and Otto just smiled. They could not figure out what had happened to him. Finally one of them asked why he was not angry anymore, and Otto said, "I gave that garden away. You are not stealing from me. You are stealing from God." Word got around fast, and folks who will steal from a missionary without blinking will not touch what belongs to the Almighty. A revival swept through that village, all because one man let go of something he had been holding onto with white knuckles.I think most of our anger works the same way. Somebody takes our time, our credit, our comfort, and we come up swinging because we believe it is ours to defend. But Jesus said if we are going to follow Him, we deny ourselves and pick up a cross, not a fist. The moment we hand our rights over to God, whatever gets taken from us becomes His problem, not ours. And that kind of peace preaches louder than any sermon we could give.Prayer:Lord, I hand my pineapples over to You today, my time, my reputation, my comfort, all of it. Where I have been gripping my rights with white knuckles, loosen my hold, and let Your peace be the sermon my life preaches. In Jesus' name, Amen.Be sure to Like, Share, Follow and subscribe it helps get the word out.https://linktr.ee/rttbros

Joyful. Intimate conversation comes when we reveal ourselves to one another, as it is with God, when the Holy Spirit unveils to our eyes a treasure we failed to notice before.It took me years to notice when the rich young ruler made a very foolish assertion. “Teacher, I have kept all these things from my youth up.” Mark 10:29Instead of chuckling at his claim to perfection, Mark tells us: “And looking at him, Jesus felt a love for him,” Mark 10:21aFor the sake of love, Jesus tried again; in short, give up your stuff, give up your pride, and follow me. When the Bible calls us to humility, it's not a loss; it's better than the gain of the whole wide world. Our So what?The Almighty, Creator, King, Master, and perfect Judge, is also He who tells us:“Just as a father has compassion on his children, So the LORD has compassion on those who fear Him. 14 For He Himself knows our frame; He is mindful that we are but dust.”“Oh Holy Ghost, let us never forget, Nothing in my hands I bring,Simply to Thy cross I cling;Naked, come to Thee for dress,Helpless, look to Thee for grace:Foul, I to the fountain fly. “Rock of Ages”Wash me, Savior, er I die. Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever.

Welcome to Day 2900 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom. Day 2900 – Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 140:1-13 Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2900 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2900 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. The title for today's Wisdom-Trek is: Shielded from the Serpent's Venom – The Cosmic Courtroom of King Yahweh In our previous expeditions through the majestic heights of the Book of Psalms, we rested in the transcendent sanctuary of Psalm One Hundred Thirty-Nine. We marveled at the staggering, intimate reality of God's complete omniscience and omnipresence, celebrating how He meticulously knit us together in the secret places of the earth, and how His protective hand continuously hems us in from behind and before. But as we step onto a brand-new mountain pass today, moving directly into Psalm One Hundred Forty, verses one through thirteen, the spiritual scenery shifts with dramatic, jarring intensity. We are descending from the quiet, beautiful mountaintop of divine contemplation, straight into the muddy, dangerous trenches of earthly and cosmic warfare. David reminds us quite vividly that while we are perfectly known and perfectly secure in the eyes of our Creator, we still must navigate a deeply broken, highly hostile wilderness, populated by those who actively align themselves with the forces of chaos and destruction. The first segment is:The Venom of Deception: Verbal Warfare in the Cosmic Realm Let us open our ears to the opening movements of this desperate prayer, as recorded in the New Living Translation, grouping together the logical thoughts found in verse one, verse two, and verse three. O Lord, rescue me from evil people. Protect me from those who are violent. Those who plot evil in their hearts and stir up trouble all day long. Their tongues sting like a snake; the venom of a viper drips from their lips. In this opening cry, David wastes absolutely no time exposing the terrifying nature of the adversaries who have surrounded his life. He pleads, “O Lord, rescue me from evil people. Protect me from those who are violent.” But notice carefully how David defines this violence; he does not immediately point to unsheathed swords, or marching infantries. Instead, he unmasks the internal architecture of their malice, explaining that they plot evil in their hearts, stir up trouble all day long, and weaponize their words, making their tongues sting like a snake, while the venom of a viper drips from their lips. To fully appreciate the gravity of these verses, we must view them through the fascinating lens of the Ancient Israelite divine-council worldview. In the ancient Near East, words were never viewed as merely empty acoustic vibrations floating harmlessly through the air. Words were seen as potent, concrete extensions of spiritual reality, possessing the power to either bless and uphold cosmic order, or curse and unleash primordial chaos. When David describes his enemies as plotting evil in their hidden hearts, he is revealing that they are operating as human agents for the rebellious, unseen spiritual principalities who rule the dark corners of the globe. Furthermore, the striking imagery of the snake and the viper's venom carries a massive theological echo. It deliberately transports the ancient Israelite mind all the way back to the garden of Eden, back to the nachash—the deceptive, shining serpent who was a rebellious member of God's heavenly host. That original spiritual rebel did not overthrow humanity through physical violence; he overthrew humanity through the subtle, poisonous corruption of his words, whispering deceptive lies that fractured the cosmic order of Yahweh. David is declaring that the wicked people surrounding him are speaking the native, venomous language of the serpent, attempting to inject spiritual poison into the social, political, and spiritual life of God's covenant community. The second segment is: Hidden Snares Along the Trail: The Strategy of the Proud The narrative of David's struggle continues to unfold as he links his logical thoughts together in verse four and verse five, mapping out the covert operations of his predators. O Lord, keep me out of the hands of the wicked. Protect me from those who are violent, for they are plotting against me. These proud people have set a trap to catch me. They have stretched out a net along the pathway and spread traps in my path. David intensifies his petition, crying out, “O Lord, keep me out of the hands of the wicked. Protect me from those who are violent, for they are plotting against me.” He then uses the vivid vocabulary of an ancient wilderness hunter, describing how these proud people have set a trap, stretched out a massive net along the pathway, and spread hidden snares directly in his path. This section beautifully illustrates the treacherous nature of our spiritual and earthly journey. Our adversaries rarely launch their assaults out in the open where they can be easily anticipated. Instead, like a calculated hunter tracking prey through the brush, they rely on covert manipulation, gaslighting, and invisible entrapment. They wait until we are walking along our normal, daily pathway, and then they attempt to trip us into a compromise, or trap us in a web of false accusations. Notice that David specifically identifies these engineers of chaos as “proud people.” In the biblical worldview, pride is not just a psychological trait; it is a profound cosmic posture. To be proud means to actively refuse to submit to the sovereign rule of Yahweh, mimicking the original pride of the fallen cosmic rulers who erroneously believed they could usurp the authority of the Most High. These proud human adversaries set traps for David because they believe they can successfully operate outside of God's moral boundaries, tracking down and devouring the righteous without ever being held accountable by the cosmic court of heaven. The third segment is: Appealing to the Supreme Magistrate of Heaven Faced with venomous lips and hidden nets, David does not attempt to fight fire with fire, nor does he rely on his own military strategic brilliance. Instead, he enters the celestial courtroom, combining his urgent thoughts in verse six, verse seven, and verse eight. I said to the Lord, “You are my God!” Listen, O Lord, to my cries for mercy! O Sovereign Lord, the strong one who rescued me, you protected me on the day of battle. Lord, do not give in to their evil desires. Do not let their evil plots succeed, or they will become proud. David plants his feet firmly on covenant ground, declaring directly to the Almighty, “You are my God! Listen, O Lord, to my cries for mercy!” He appeals to Him as the Sovereign Lord, the strong one who rescued him, and the one who served as a protective helmet over his head on the day of intense battle. He begs the King, “Lord, do not give in to their evil desires. Do not let their evil plots succeed, or they will become proud.” This is a breathtaking masterclass in spiritual legal procedure. In the ancient world, when a weaker vassal was attacked by a hostile, lawless force, his only hope was to appeal to his high suzerain—the great king who had sworn a covenant oath to protect him. David bypasses all localized earthly authorities and goes straight to the ultimate Judge of the divine council. He uses the specific, sacred names of God—Yahweh and Adonai—reminding the Creator of their unique, binding relationship. By calling God “the strong one who rescued me,” David is looking backward at his historical track record of deliverance, recalling how Yahweh previously protected his head from the physical and spiritual arrows of his enemies on the field of conflict. David knows that if the Sovereign Lord allows these deceptive, serpentine plots to succeed, it will cause these wicked people—and the rebel spiritual powers backing them—to boast that they have successfully outmaneuvered the cosmic King. Therefore, David's prayer is not merely a plea for personal survival; it is an appeal for the public vindication of God's supreme authority over the forces of lawlessness. The fourth segment is: The Law of Reciprocity: Chaos Devouring Itself The psalm now transitions into an incredibly intense, imprecatory phase, where David outlines the divine retribution he desires to see fall upon his tormentors. Let us listen to these heavy words in...
