Psalm 68 has some words in it that are relevant for today. Verse 21 and 22 states, “The Lord said, I will bring back your enemies from Bashan; I will bring them back from the depths of the Red Sea, That you may crush them, dipping your foot in blood, that the tongues of your dogs may have their share from the foe. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This word was fulfilled recently when Israel won a skirmish against Egypt and Jordan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Why would God want this in the bible? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It says in this verse God wanted the dogs to lick their blood. This is the same judgment given against Ahab and Jezebel after they murdered Naboth and took possession of his vineyard. This judgment about the dogs was first said by fellow nazarite Elijah against Ahab and Jezebel. Ultimately, Elisha was chosen as the successor to Elijah. Elisha anointed Jehu as king who had Jezebel put to death for the murder of Naboth. The dogs ate her when she was killed, fulfilling the word of Elijah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Why are the people who fought Israel recently given the same judgment as Ahab and Jezebel? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is written in the bible that some of the biblical prophets were murdered, as Naboth was. These murdered prophets say there must be many Jews living in Israel at the end of the age. These same prophets also play a role in producing evidence people are raised from the dead and receive forgiveness for their sins. Now at the end of the age these murdered prophets are playing a role in the overthrow of murder in the world. So, in order for their great strategy to come true, their must be many Jews living there. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
So those who fought the Jews recently are attacking something important that God wants to defend. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I would say this is the reason God has never let the Arabs try too hard to overrun the Jews.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This psalm shows God obviously wants all the Arabs to respect the strategy of the bible and be still. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The report on Revelation shows what God does to annihilate this problem, since it is still an issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Psalm 20 provides some important insight into the final strategy of the biblical prophets. There in verses 4-7 David says, May He grant you according to your hear’s desire and fulfill all your plans, We will shout in triumph at your salvation and victory, and in the name of our God we will set up our banners. May the Lord fulfill all your petitions. Now I know that the Lord saves His anointed; He will answer him from his holy heaven with the saving strength of his right hand. Some trust in and boast of chariots and some of horses, but we will trust in and boast of the name of the Lord our God.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
These ideas by David raise some big issues. For one, who is David talking about? Somebody has to play this role after he defines it. Another matter is that David defines a person who petitions God as most powerful. Another important fact is a biblical figure who petitions God is clearly a guy who David wants to be associated with. So a biblical figure who successfully petitions God is who David should be associated with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Psalm 91 provides another important message. It describes a different angle on the way God is currently choosing to use His power than psalm 20 does.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Here is Psalm 91:1-9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall remain stable and fixed under the shadow of the Almighty. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I will say of the Lord, He is my Refuge and my Fortress, my God; on Him I lean and trust.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For then He will deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the deadly pestilence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Then He will cover you with His pinions, and under His wings will you trust and find refuge; His truth and His faithfulness are a shield and a buckler.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You shall not be afraid of the terror of the night, nor of the arrow, the evil plots during the day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nor of the pestilence that stalks in darkness, nor of the destruction and sudden death that surprise and lay sudden waste at noonday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand, but it shall not come near you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Only a spectator shall you be as you witness the reward of the wicked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Because you have made the Lord your refuge, and the Most High your dwelling place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What should a person learn from this message? At this time, it is more correct that the nazarite in psalm 88 has this relationship with God since God has to keep him around to coordinate the strategy in the choice vine of Jacob. This is true for now since a lot of good people die of diseases everyday. However, the words are very similar to what is taking place on the last day of this age. On that day when somebody has successfully called upon the name of the Lord. they have security that others do not. They are able to live on and see face to face the return of Jesus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Psalm 139 shows God knits life in the womb. This psalm helps people turn against killing in the womb.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Psalm 42 says God will not forget John the Baptist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Psalm 110 shows another view of David.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
