Psalms 11
Psalm 11
1. Faith’s resources in the day of trouble (Psalms 11:1-4)
2. The recompense for the righteous and the wicked (Psalms 11:5-7)
Psalms 11:1-4. Their refuge is the Lord, in Him they trust as we, His heavenly people, know Him as our hiding place in the time of trouble. That coming day of trouble is the time “when the foundations are destroyed.” It is the time of apostasy and confusion. But their comfort is “Jehovah is in His holy temple, the Throne of Jehovah is in heaven.”
Psalms 11:5-7. But faith also reckons with the day of retribution and judgment, when the days of tribulation are ended. Then the wicked receive their punishment. But the righteous shall behold His face.
