Psalms 7-14

The Psalmist disclosed that God sits in His Heaven and examines closely the lives of all men. He watches the Godly and ungodly. Their ways are recorded. Nothing escapes His eye. It’s foolish to think there is no God and that a day of reckoning is not coming.

The fear of the Lord includes living with an awareness that God IS watching, and that we are wise to please Him with our daily lives. He has given us a conscience to probe our hearts when we depart from His Ways.

Concerning our defense; weapons may be formed against us, but they won’t prosper. If we give more concern to the devices of our enemies, we are NOT properly fearing the Lord. Hence, we are putting our enemy’s power over God’s. That’s a form of idolatry.
