Psalm 75

WEEK  7                                              Psalm 75

WEDNESDAY  Reflections

It will happen in God's time, not ours (verse 2). This is a great reminder to those of us who get in a hurry. God will bring justice in His time, not ours. We often think we know best, but we don't as God tried to teach Job. We only understand a small portion of the world, yet we think we know when things need to happen. We don't, God does. God will work it all out.

What is our job as we wait? To do right and to speak right.

Psa 75:1-10
(1)  To the chief Musician, Altaschith, A Psalm or Song of Asaph. Unto thee, O God, do we give thanks, unto thee do we give thanks: for that thy name is near thy wondrous works declare.
(2)  When I shall receive the congregation I will judge uprightly.
(3)  The earth and all the inhabitants thereof are dissolved: I bear up the pillars of it. Selah.
(4)  I said unto the fools, Deal not foolishly: and to the wicked, Lift not up the horn:
(5)  Lift not up your horn on high: speak not with a stiff neck.
(6)  For promotion cometh neither from the east, nor from the west, nor from the south.
(7)  But God is the judge: he putteth down one, and setteth up another.
(8)  For in the hand of the LORD there is a cup, and the wine is red; it is full of mixture; and he poureth out of the same: but the dregs thereof, all the wicked of the earth shall wring them out, and drink them.
(9)  But I will declare for ever; I will sing praises to the God of Jacob.
(10)  All the horns of the wicked also will I cut off; but the horns of the righteous shall be exalted.
