Psalm 37
Good morning brothers and sisters. Still can't talk well. Face still swollen. I look like I have been in a boxing match and I am not winning. But that's the way that it sometimes goes. But not talking doesn't mean not living for Christ, I just have to live it out loud and that is the way it should be. I know that God still sustains me through it all.
1- Do not fret because of evildoers, nor be envious of the workers of iniquity.
2- For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.
3- Trust in the Lord and do good. Dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness.
4- Delight yourself also in the Lord, and He shall five you the desires of your heart.
5- Commit your way to the Lord, trust also in Him, and He shall bring it to pass.
6- He shall bring forth your righteousness as the light, and your justice as the noonday.
7- Rest in the Lord, and wait patiently for Him; do not fret because of him who prospers in his way. Because of the man who brings wicked schemes to pass.
8- Cease from anger, and forsake wrath; do not fret it only causes harm.
9- For evildoers shall be cut off; but those who wait on the Lord, they shall inherit the earth.
10- For yet a little while and the wicked shall be no more; indeed, you will look carefully for his place, but it shall be no more.
11- But the meek shall inherit the earth, and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
12- The wicked plots against the just, and gnashes at him with his teeth.
13- The Lord laughs at him, for He sees that his day is coming.
14- The wicked have drawn sword and have bent their bow; to cast down the poor and needy, to slay those who are of upright conduct.
15- Their sword shall enter their own heart, and their bows shall be broken.
16- A little that a righteous man has is better than the riches of many wicked.
17- For the arms of the wicked shall be broken, but the Lord upholds the righteous.
18- The Lord knows the days of the upright, and their inheritance shall be forever.
19- They shall not be ashamed in the evil time. And in the days of famine they shall be satisfied.
20- But the wicked shall perish; and the enemies of the Lord, like the splendor of the meadows shall vanish, into smoke they shall vanish away.
21- The wicked borrows and does not repay, but the righteous shows mercy and gives.
22- For those blessed by Him shall inherit the earth, but those cursed by Him shall be cut off.
23- The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord, and He delights in his way.
24- Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down; for the Lord upholds him with His hand.
25- I have been young, and now am old; yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, not his descendants begging bread.
26- He is ever merciful, and lends; and his descendants are blessed.
27- Depart from evil, and do good; and dwell forevermore.
28- For the Lord loves justice, and does not forsake His saints; they are preserved forever, but the descendants of the wicked shall be cut off.
29- The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell in it forever.
30- The mouth of the righteous speaks wisdom, and his tongue talks of justice.
31- The law of his God is in his heart; none of his steps shall slide.
32- The wicked watches the righteous and seeks to slay him.
33- The Lord will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is judged.
34- Wait on the Lord, and keep His way, and He shall exalt you to inherit the land; when the wicked are cut off, you shall see it.
35- I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a native green tree.
36- Yet he passed away, and behold, he was no more; indeed I sought him, but he could not be found.
37- Mark the blameless man, and observe the upright; for the future of that man is peace.
38- But the transgressor shall be destroyed together; the future of the wicked shall be cut off.
39- But the salvation of the righteous is from the Lord; He is the strength in the time of trouble.
40- And the Lord shall help them and deliver them; He shall deliver them from the wicked, and save them, because they trust in Him.
Have a blessed day! Rise up children of God, rise up!
