The Belt of Truth: Psalm 35:1-14
Jun 19, 2023 • Rev. Andrew Belt
Psalm 35 is a plea to God for him to take action, even action that is violent.
Here we note that the calls for violence in the Psalms do not leave the violence in our hands but in God’s hands.
The enemies in this psalm are not for vengeance sake. These enemies actively seek to hurt and we are powerless to defend ourselves from them.
Christians should not shy away from the psalm that call for violence for we have enemies that are called sin, death, and the devil. These enemies are not to be reconciled, they are to be destroyed.
Fortunately we have a Savior who has fought and won on our behalf. Jesus our Lord!
