Save All the Humble?
Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who realize you establish judgment to save all the humble of the earth. In Jesus’ name, amen.
The people of Israel angered God by worshiping false gods, breaking his commandments, and more.
The notes to the English Standard Version of the Bible concerning the phrase “to save all the humble of the earth” refers to saving “the faithful among his people.”
In Psalm 76:7-9 the psalmist expresses a healthy respect for God’s anger and subsequent judgment.
“But you, you are to be feared!
Who can stand before you
when once your anger is roused?
From the heavens you uttered judgment;
the earth feared and was still,
when God arose to establish judgment,
to save all the humble of the earth. Selah”
God has the authority to judge. Do you need to repent and turn away from the sin in your life? Pray. In John 8:11 (ESV) Jesus told a woman caught in the act of adultery to “‘go, and from now on sin no more.’”
