Psalm 1:1-4 NKJV
Why do the nations rage,
And the people plot a vain thing?
The kings of the earth set themselves,
And the rulers take counsel together,
Against the Lord and against His Anointed,saying,
“Let us break Their bonds in pieces
And cast away Their cords from us.”
He who sits in the heavens shall laugh;
The Lord shall hold them in derision.
Isn’t it amazing that words written thousands of years ago continue to speak today. Sometimes I have opened the Bible and been amazed at how I selected a page that spoke to what I was dealing with at the moment. This morning, as I was prompted to go specifically to Psalm 2, I realized it could be today’s headlines. We have a globalist agenda at work in the world right now and verses 1 to 3 describe what is going on in 2021. Leaders are making plans behind closed doors to rid themselves of restrictions in our cultures. They are attempting to eliminate all godly influence that hinders them from their wicked agenda. See verse 3. There have been attempts to keep churches closed, censor what we can preach and teach and pass corrupt laws that will pressure us to accept concepts contrary to God’s Word. Verse 4 lets us know how God feels about it and verse 5 lets us know how He plans to respond. So we can laugh with Him today and cheer Him on with the words from another psalm, “Let God arise, Let His enemies be scattered.” Laugh out loud!
