Are you under the dictatorship of your mouth? (Part 2).

Continuing yesterday’s message:

• Make haste to help me, O Lord my salvation -> It is truth that, when we are in trouble, we yearn for being saved as soon as possible. Nevertheless, the Creator has His time to act.
By the way: if we wait patiently the Creator incline in our direction (Ps 40:1), many of the tribulation wouldn’t come about; and, as for those who are probation, we would receive of Him His scape (1Cor 10:13);
• Though the LORD be high, yet hath he respect unto the lowly: but the proud he knoweth afar off -> who is proud, exercising in great matters, certainly will be an abomination before the Creator (Luke 16:15). Hence the psalmist not to exercise in great matters, or in things too high for him (Ps 131:1);
• Though I walk in the midst of trouble, thou wilt revive me -> the Creator wishes to revive us. Nonetheless, what do we long for being revived for? To do all sort of abomination before the Creator (Jer 7:10) or to be able to help people more earnestly?
• thou shalt stretch forth thine hand against the wrath of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall save me -> although this promise is valid, it is necessary to ask:
1 – The enemies are right of being fraught of wrath against us? If so, know that the curse will arrive (Prov 26:2). Reconcile fast with them (Mat 5:22-26).
2 – The enemies are hating us without cause (John 15:25)? In this case, no weapon that is formed against us shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against us in judgment we will be able to condemn (Isa 54:17).
• The LORD will perfect that which concerneth me -> If we desire what Jesus conquered for us, certainly we will procure and be happy with it (1Cor 2:9; Eph 1:3; 2Pe 1:3). Nevertheless, if we pine for the blessing that belongs to others, we will only get disturbance.
• thy mercy, O LORD, endureth for ever -> so, receive his mercy and cope with people pursuant to it.
• forsake not the works of thine own hands. -> like I said previously, it is us that forsake the Creator and His Word (Jer 2:32).

So, desire only what is good for your neighbor too (Phil 2:4). Afflict your heart for the sickness of Jesus’ people (see Amos 6:6; Zeph 3:18). Accept no false witness (Exo 20:16) or reproach against your neighbor (Ps 15:3) and have a good day in the promise below:


• Psa 34:18 -> “The LORD is nigh unto them that are of a broken heart; and saveth such as be of a contrite spirit.”.
